Table Saw recommendation? (lemmy.world)

What's a good basic table saw? I look at them online and can't really tell much a difference. I'm tempted to just get a harbor freight one but know the fence will probably be loose and other annoyances...

Anyone have a specific recommendation for someone who is only occasionally playing around with simple carpentry?

I got a DeWalt, used for $50, mainly for the rack and pinion fence. Makes setting the fence so much easier
