Hi Bobcat, not sure what the K5 is like but I have had a bestcombi 2000 for about 5 years now and find it more than capable and very reliable.

Is it a new one? Get the sliding carrage, it is a must have.

It meets the balance between floor space and machine capacity as I work from a double garage so space can be a bit limited. Have a look through my albums to see some of the things produced on it

New cost would have been about £1600 so not bad, you could by new combis for £1000 but They may not be upto the quality of the Kity.

Also worth having is the tilting surfacing fence as using the rip fence is not that good. Extension side table aslo useful, I just use the linger bars that allow ripping upto 620mm.
