Check YouTube for reviews.

BUT I do not trust reviews that are made a few weeks/months after the
purchase. I trust reviews after the product has been used 2+ years.

at one time?

IIRC Grizzly had a track saw before Kreg.

https://www.grizzly.com/products/grizzly-6-1-4-track-saw-master-pack/t25552

BUT apparently it now discontinued and other brands have replace the
Grizzly brand.

One would think (that one being me) that if they had the forethought and resources
to update that page with "Discontinued" notices, they could have easily added a path
to other options.

It wouldn't even have to be product specific. Just a link that uses their own
search engine would be helpful. Draw the customer in by making it simple.

"Click _here_ for other options" where _here_ resolves to:

https://www.grizzly.com/search?q=trac+saw
