  • Rounded up to 5 stars
Style: Drill Press
Since there is no 4.75 star choice available, I'll round the Jet 17MF up to 5 stars. While it has some issues, overall I like it a lot! I got tired of patching up my old Dunlap drill press, so I figured I would treat myself to a newer & larger unit. I did a lot of research, focusing on the Delta, Shop Fox, Grizzly, & Powermatic floor units in the 17" range. I was able to download the manual for all of them, and judging by the exploded diagrams and parts list, they all seem to be clones, with slight differences (i.e. type of depth stop, pulley cover, style of on/off switch, etc.). My usage will be 80% metal fabrication, & 20% wood. The drill press was delivered in one package, about 5 feet long, 2.5 feet wide, 16" high & 210+ pounds. Large, but not unmanageable for most people. There is a top and bottom block of Styrofoam, each molded to house the parts securely. All parts were complete & undamaged. Assembly took less than half an hour. As mentioned in other reviews, the head piece is quite heavy, so get help sliding it onto the column. Once assembled, the drill press is very stable on the floor. I cleaned the chuck, arbor, and spindle with alcohol, and there was no problem with the chuck falling out as others described. Evidently, Jet has listened to the complaints of others, because it now includes a plastic holder for the chuck key which is mounted near the spindle return spring, and works well. The light is an excellent feature, and is operated via a separate switch that glows when in the on position. The separate switch lets you illuminate your work during setup without the chuck spinning. I used a ceiling fan bulb since they have a stronger filament and is less sensitive to vibration. I saw no problem with the socket as others described. Now the issues. While runout on the spindle was less than .0005" ( barely measurable on my dial indicator with .001" resolution), runout on the shaft of a drill bit (tried several) was about .003". I'll be getting in touch with Jet to get a replacement chuck/arbor, but I don't consider .003" terrible. I didn't try it with my Albrecht chuck & arbor yet. I do seem to get a small amount of vibration at some speeds. The motor and idler pulleys look like they are standing still when running, but it looks like the spindle pulley may be running untrue. My third complaint is that the table lifting rack has no support in the middle, and tends to bow out a bit there. Not a big deal, but should have been thought out better. Despite this the table goes up and down just fine. More good: The table itself is machined flat & level...nice job. The spindle is plumb to the table. The motor is quiet and powerful, overall fit & finish is very good, and the tool seems very beefy. I like the threaded rod style depth stop which is easy to read & whose graduations are right on the money. In my opinion, the external type is more consistent than the type mounted of the feed shaft. I also like the separate, large on/off buttons. I've used several drill presses over the years, most of which were fairly expensive machine shop grade units, so I may be picking nits with some of my "issues". From what I hear, Jets customer service is top notch, and they give a 2 year warranty on the 17MF. I would have no problem recommending this tool to anyone, and feel that it's a good value for the money. ... show more

  • Very impressive
Style: Drill Press
It was delivered inside my garage on time and they were very pleasant to interact with. The machine was well packaged. It was in 3 pieces, the base, head and table. So the assembly was easy to do, I wiped it down with WD-40 to cut factory grease and leave a barrier of my own. After assembly I screwed in the 60W light bulb and it went on as it should. I turned on the machine and it was running quietly. Very nice drill press. I placed a short center drill into the chuck and it looked to be running true. No wobble noticed. I'm very pleased with the machine and of Amazon for picking the right guys to deliver it. ... show more

  • Great drill press

  • Great Machine for the Money
Style: Drill Press
I have been running my Jet since November of 1999 and it has performed flawlessly. The quality of the castings and machining is quite good. I have looked at other cheaper drill presses and there is no comparison - the Jet has better quality, more powerful motor and more features. Even the paint is impressive. The drill has up and down stops on the depth gauge, which is scaled in inches. There is little vibration; I can stand a bolt on the table and it stays put. The motor runs real quiet. The morse taper chuck mounted easily on the first try and has held for the life of the machine. Speed changes are easy - just loosen two wing bolts on the sides of the head, slacken the belt with a chrome lever, place the belts on the proper pulleys according to the handy chart mounted on the belt cover. Retighten the belt and drill away! The light mounted inside the headframe is a real nice feature, you don't have to clamp one on that gets in your way. It is a pretty heavy machine and comes packed on a pallet. I assembled mine alone, although they recommend getting help mounting the headframe, which probably weighs close to 100 lbs. I mounted my drill press on an HTC adjstable mobile base (reviewed on Amazon), putting an oversized piece of 3/4" plywood in the base, which allows me to mount some extension wings to the base for added versatility. I have used mine mostly for wood driling, but I have drilled some metal with it also. I can't see any problems with the machine on either. I have also mounted a drum sander on it with a custom top for finishing curves. I have used twist, spade and forstner bits - nothing can slow it down. If you are looking for a quality machine at a reasonable price, this is it. ... show more
