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've been really happy with my Bosch 4100, but it did take me a while to properly align the arbor with the miter slots. I've been using it on-and-off for about 7-ish years, and I'm only recently considering to upgrade to a Sawstop.
