Seeking bench grinder recommendations

[termite]

I appreciate the feedback and suggestions. Lucked out and came home from my in-laws yesterday from chipping tree limbs with a delta bench grinder from probably around 2000-2005. Not heavy duty but sufficient for my needs after i put a wire wheel on it yesterday. Needs the stones dressed badly

Excellent. For anyone else who's looking, I don't hesitate to buy Harbor Freight tools when they're good, but their bench grinders are absolute garbage. Avoid them and buy something else.

Old craftsman blockgrinders are some of the best made if you can find one reasonable.

I've had the same 1/2hp bench grinder since the mid 90s. It's an ACE hardware brand that I bought from a local feed and farm supply, and been a good one. I put new bearings in it about 7-8 years ago. It has gotten used a lot, and I mean a lot.

I've got the Ryobi 6" from Home Depot. I've had it for 5+ years and have no complaints.
