I'm in the market for a box blade but am having a difficult time trying to decide which to get in terms of value & ruggedness. I'd love to walk into Northerntool and plunk down up to $600 bucks for a quality box blade but I live across the country and shipping is the killer!
There is one on Amazon, but I'm afraid that I might find this to be too poorly put together?

Also, I know someone that is selling a quick hitch & box blade combo for $650 which I think is a good price but it's a 54" wide instead of a 48" wide. Can a B7100 work with the 54" well or should I try to keep the size to a 48"?
What brands should I avoid & what should I look for without breaking my $600 budget?
