I bought my Rikon 18" band saw sight unseen from Woodcraft and returned it 2
weeks later after I received it. They take products back for 1 year. You
should probably clarify before ordering as there may be a restock charge on
non stock items.
I agree, I would like to see one first although I hear Woodcraft has a
pretty good return policy. I did email Rikon to see if anyone in my area has
one I could check out and have not heard back from them.
I will post an update if and when I find out more.

Wilbur,
I went over to my local Woodcraft store and talked to the manager. He said
he would let me put one on layaway. He also said if I didn't like it I could
return it. I am going to scratch together a few hundred doloors over the
next few weeks and make my down payment. It will take me a few months to pay
it off but I will let you know when I get it and put it through it's paces.
