Quality

Great upgrade from old delta fence, greater stability and accuracy.

I like the quality very much and the functionality is a big improvement.

The clear plastic with the red line used as your site line to your measurement is cheaply made .

Installation instructions, while minimally acceptable, lack visual appearance normally associated with american made products.

Price

Best bang for your buck though, i put that vega u26 fence on my new saw and i love it

Addition of the vega fence was well worth the price.

Now my fence is more expensive than my saw.

I think it cost as much as the table saw cost me back then!

Shipping

It arrived quickly and was exactly as described.

The fence arrived on time and the heavy cardboard box was undamaged.

One of the brackets that holds the front rail was deformed and after contacting amazon, a new one was delivered from vega within two days.

That includes the time required for me to drive to home depot to buy a drill bit i needed to put a hole in the back side of the saw table.

Packaging/appearance

Packaging for the vega fence was excellent.

Packaging was great and handled with care.

Competitiveness

Compared to the original fence, the vega fence is very easy to use, and is always square.

All in all, it's probably as good as another rip fence at this price point.

There were only 4 aftermarket fences at the time (beismeyer, excalibur, delta unifence, and vega), this was the least expensive.
