I used to have a large Grizzley, delta, and a table top Ryobi. Of those and for the money the Grizzly was the best for me.
Old powermatic, Delta unisaw, jet, . My advice is get the biggest heaviest one you can.
I suppose a good flat heavy table and excellent fence on just about any type will work well.
Don't forget government auctions. You might find a high school or local community college getting rid of their older nice stuff.
To be honest though a lot of shoulders, tenons, dados, can be quickly cut with a combination plane or the Veritas plow plane. In many cases you can use a hand plane faster than you can set up a dado on a table saw. Obviously for production or large projects the table saw is best.
I thought many times about going back to power tools. This is my current brutal endeavor but in the end I appreciated the exercise. The wood is Cocobolo. Door panel is not mounted, waiting for hinges. The last pic is the end grain of Katalox. Amazing looking piece of wood.
