    Default Harvey ambassador c200-30: Anybody seen or used one?

    I've spent a few hours reading all the recommendations and reviews on the forum, and it seems the Harvey units are well loved.
    The new release (2020) Harvey Ambassador C200-30 (~$2100) seems to fit the bill for me perfectly.
    Looks like it's the new version of the older HW110HB-30, which on spec and price looked to be the right setup for me, but is now a bit old (2013).

    After a few years of persistence and procrastination with the ol' Triton workstation, it's time to upgrade. I'm looking at hybrid or small cabinet saws, and I want relatively small footprint, semi-portable (as in, I need to roll it to the back of the garage for storage), cast iron top, decent fence system, dado compatible. Happy with 10" and 2hp-ish. Prefer a 10A circuit, because switchboard is already max'd out, and I'd have to upgrade the whole thing to get a 15A on there. I'm just a hobbyist, so don't need absolute perfection.

    I could probably stretch to much adored HW110LGE-30, but I'd probably rather save the cash, and use it for other stuff, like dust extraction, blades, parts for DIY jigs, etc.

    I reckon a C200-30 on some heavy duty platform with castors would be perfect.
    Anybody seen, used, or know anything about the C200-30?

    Cheers, RW

    I see one big difference between is the max rip capacity. 30" (760mm) on the C200, with 36" on the 110LGE and Alpha LC110-36.
    Something to think about.

    Pretty confused about the model numbers TBH!

    The webpage for the Harvey Ambassador C200-30 actually has a a good comparison table towards the bottom, the model numbers make a little more sense when you go over the data
