From the standpoint of a professional woodworker, I cut my ply at my shop with a sliding panel saw, I will use this table as a multi-use table on the field, sometimes to cut, sometimes to transport wood countertops, help with the process of scribing big panels/counters, general work table, a workbench to work on doors and drawers, sometimes as a cutting table, in short, it is worth it for me.
When I started my business in my garage I made a cutting table (torsion box) that I mounted on a swivel system to easy load sheet goods, that worked fine so if you are a weekend woodworker, it is probably not worth spending $1,000 on this table, but then again, I have seen garage shops that have a 40k CNC that gets used once a month.
