Unless money is no object my advice would be to buy the cheapest drill press you can find if you're only going to use it for wood. You can buy a floor mounted 16" drill press for as little as 139 dollars.
I would spend the extra money on higher quality scroll saw, sanders, planers, etc. Drilling wood isn't that difficult and isn't that hard on a drill press.
I bought a cheap bench model in 1982 and a floor model in 1986. Have used them almost everyday since then and other than a new capacitor for the floor model and a new return spring for the bench model I have had no problems.
Now if you want to do a lot of metal drilling or other heavy work that might be a different story.
