I currently have a little Craftsman belt/disk sander I've been using for 30+ years. I find I use it more and more as I progress in woodworking. I'd really like a better and bigger. Been looking at this Grizzly one and would like to know if anyone has one or has comments on it. For that matter any recommendation regarding belt/disk sanders. There a couple things I apprehensive about this one.
I am not fond of the way the table is put on. My Craftsman has this kind of set up, of coarse not a beefy, but it works loose, hard to level and a pain to move back and forth between belt and disk. Second, I don't like the fact this Grizzly has one size dust port for the disk and another size for the belt, that just seems, well, stupid to me.

I'd appreciate your input.
