Good info, I knew the Tecomecs were the way to go but I didn’t realize they had a 5series for 230. That’s still a great price.I’m not sure what the 50/60 Compact is. Tecomec has many models.
The Super Jolly has a hydraulic chain clamp: more moving parts to fail, but an advantage for high-volume users.
The EVO, I believe, has a lower power motor, and some awkward adjustments.
Search eBay for the Tecomec Compact grinder sold by ArcherPlus for $230, shipped. It is a basic, full powered, full sized grinder. See if it is the same one, and compare it to your $135 deal.
