Query: Very disappointing

I've owned the Jet 12" opend stand band saw for about a year now and have had nothing but trouble with it. I find it almost impossible to keep proper tension on the blade. It's either coming loose and allowing the blade to wander or its throwing the rubber treads off the upper and lower wheels. My sense is that this is strictly a "hobby saw," capable of handling only thin stock. My problems always arise when I'm cutting stock 3" or more in thickness. The disappointment is that I spent $... more than I would have to buy the low-end Delta, but am not getting anything more in performance. My advise is to either buy a cheap 10" or pay ...[more]+ for a 14", but avoid this overpriced disappointment.
