I'd suggest, if you are tight on space as I was, consider building one to suit the space you have. The small ones are very small and the bigger ones take up a lot of unnecessary space.
The cheap suction feed ones are not great. A lot of people end up modifying them, changing them over to the mixer type and adding extra lighting.
But you can easily buy or make a mixer, and pick up the footpedal, gloves, and glass on eBay and you can build one that performs a lot better and fits your requirements and space.
One thing that makes all the difference is decent dust extraction. A cyclone isn't a bad idea to try and trap and recycle the media.
