Nottingham Interspace vs Pear Audio vs Analogue Works


I am looking at some entry level turntables from the three manufacturers mentioned above.  Being small companies I have not been able to find many reviews ( and for that matter dealers).  The Nottingham seems to be better priced than the AW One and the Pear Audio Captain John Handy; and comes with a 10 inch arm. The question is, am I losing much sonic performance with the savings?
Thanks

I am a recovering former audio dealer.  One of my products was Pear Audio Blue turntables.  I specifically chose to represent Pear Audio because I was a former Nottingham owner and always loved these decks.  The Pear Audio turntables incorporated everything I enjoyed in Tom Fletcher's  designs and fixed (almost) everything I didn't like.  IMO, the entire Pear Audio line is a significant improvement over the Notts.

I do not have any experience with the Analog Works turntables.
