Hobby Spindle Moulder

I know i have been living on this forum recently but you are guys are very knowledgeable about almost everything to do with guitar building.

I was looking at getting a small router table as it is much safer than trying to stop a router from falling off the edge of something but i stumbled across this:

Comparatively it is ludicrously cheap compared to other spindle moulders and i am guessing that is nowhere as good as them but would it be a better purchase than a similarly priced router table?

You don't really need a moulder, a router table will do fine, plus it's a little more versatile in the fact that you can use your router in the table or on it's own. Just my two cents though. (and you almost never want to go with the cheapest tool you can find)

i already have a handheld router so i was wondering whether a spindle moulder like this one would function as more of a bigger router table possibly better quality and allow me to keep the router separate and not have to unbolt it all the time

That is the same as a router table probably better and stronger IMHO go for it and report back that is a steal at that price.

Edit: please ignore. I was thinking of a different tool.
