I'd also look to get it from Lowes or HD...i'd never buy something like this from Amazon, especially from a 3rd party seller.
A dado stack is also easier to use if you are trying to make a groove in the middle of a wide piece of wood. Like if you want a dado two feet from an edge, the table saw could probably do it, but a router isn't going to have that kind of room on the table, so you would need to use a freehand router with a guide or something.

For the size and great fence of this saw I am really tempted to upgrade. Just need to get it by the wife as technically I already have a table saw.

If you're on the fence between the 8" and 10":
If you have a router table or good handheld, the 8" could be better for you. If not, the 10" is the better option for dado capability.
If you're building and outfeed table or dedicated workbench, then the 8" is most likely your best bet depending on the size of material you plan on using. If using as a standalone the 10" or cabinet saw is better.
10" blades are much easier to find at the moment than the 8" with a vastly superior range of options.
If you use a tracksaw or rip plywood panels down to a manageable size before putting on the tablesaw then either option would work. If you only use the tablesaw the 10" is the much better option, and a cabinet saw the best.
