    I would need grooving, polishing and step bevel. I do around 10 jobs a day. Trivex, poly, Hi-index. I have a drill machine, so really don't need drill feature.

    For only 10 JPD, I wouldn't invest a lot of money. Don't listen to the edger reps and get caught up in their magical formulas of how much you will save in the long term by spending $60K. It's all total BS. I know many labs that would edge your volume for zero dollars if you purchased the lenses from them.
