  • Amazing customer service
My husband was so pleased. Thus came missing a bolt. My husband was willing to go buy one. Before leaving, he contacted the company and they sent the bolt with no delay. So, the tool and the customer service were exceptional.

  • Good value, works well.
This is an inexpensive drill press that comes with a drill press vise which is a bonus. It is a bit of a hassle to change the speeds but that's typical in these types of drill presses. The belt has to be moved over 2 hidden cones on the top. I noticed when I was using it bad it would fries if I pressed a bit too hard which is probably because I wasn't using oil at the time. But I thought about the belt stretching when that happened in called the manufacturer. They finally gave me a replacement belt number which is K26 V BELT. ... show more

  • Good for small jobs
Bought this to bore out a plastic part for a gun. It has plenty of power for the job on the speed it was set on when I got it. Unfortunately it’s not packed great and some of the styrofoam broke during shipping and one of the arms got bent. I was able to use it but it made it hard to install. I’ll call them and see if I can get another one. ... show more

  • Good to have
Cheaper than other brand but still serves the purpose. Little bit noisy but still in acceptable level. This is more than enough for garage and small shop works

  • Better than what I had to use before
You do not get the sensation of it being quality for one. For what I need it for it is perfect. I needed to drill a whole lot of holes at a controlled speed perfectly strait up and down. And it gets it done. The up and down motion could use a bit a grease to smooth out the motion but still good. I didn't even have to level the table. The vibration is tolarable. I can tell it's in the pulleys and the belt. The chuck ain't the best but is usable. Could be replaced for a better quality one for a outcome. It's light weight is better for me cause my lifting disability. I had to get it in the house and set up on my bench alone, or I would have bought a larger and better unit. For occasional project use, it suffices well. ... show more
