I have one, wish I had two. They're great. You really have quite a lot more control of the work piece with these things.

which one is better of the two--they look the same

They are essentially the same, the GR-200 includes more accessories.

I just bought two of the GR-100's as I don't feel I have any need for the rest of the stuff.

From what I see, these are the 2 differences between standard and advanced

Stabilizing Plate locks the material against the fence keeping your work square and flush. It provides 250% more stabilizing surface to keep your work under control when resawing on the table saw or routing on the router table.

Adjustable Spacer give you 54% more gripping surface and 1" of additional cut capacity to take on your biggest projects and wider cuts.

I have 2 of the GR-100's. They require you have a riving knife or remove the splitter on the older saws. Not super helpful over a standard push block for cutting large pieces but very nice for cutting small strips (most dangerous cut)

I agree. Initially you don't think you need one, but as soon as you have one, you already want two.

I got the basic Grr-ripper then ended up buying the 1/8" leg and stabilizing leg separately.

I've been eye balling these for a while. Are they really that useful?

If you only use your table saw for breaking down sheet goods, I wouldn't bother. But if you routinely rip boards, especially short boards or narrow rips, you'd definitely benefit from a Grr-ripper or two.

One of the best additions to my table saw. Bought two many years ago at a woodworking show.

Get the little shoe - Gravity Heel Kit. It's great.

Would that be the G100? Why did you buy 2? Just to have a spare, two different machines, etc?

Ordered the gr-100 with the ebay 15% off coupon for 39$ and change . There were a few other sellers to get you in the low 40$ range on them.

Here's a link. There's also a pic showing the use of two - one on each side of the blade. You can also set them up a bit different (spacing) if you're going back & forth on stock or cuts.
