Between the five operating speeds, the two-inch spindle travel, and the sturdy construction, you’ll have way more precision than a standard handheld drill. Our 2.3-amp induction motor features ball bearings for smooth balanced performance even at high speed. Manually set your speed to either 740, 1100, 1530, 2100, or 3140 RPM by adjusting the belt position on the two spindles. The easy-to-read, locking depth stop allows for accurate and repeatable drilling operations. The keyed chuck with JT33 spindle taper accepts bits ranging from 1/20 to 1/2 inch in diameter (1.5 to 13 mm). The table bevels 45° left and right for angled drilling. The base is designed with holes for mounting onto a bench or work stand. Clamps and vises are easily mounted to the slotted table, making work-holding safe and effective. And because its a WEN product. a stocked inventory of replacement parts, and a helpful customer phone line. Remember when you could drill holes in almost anything? Remember WEN.

  • Works GREAT making doorstops...
Size: 2.3-Amp, 8-Inch
I like doorstops, doorstops like me and I like making doorstops. This little beast is a nice piece of kit for making said doorstops. The doorstops are made from 7075 and 6061 aluminum. I use a 5D doorstop hole maker and its done great with this WEN 8" drill press. Yes, I know, it's Chinese and everything, but the boots working at the WEN doorstop ++ maker factory must be very happy and cared for. It isn't a $1,000 drill press obviously, but it does the job, just like your cousin Eddie. It's a little rough around the edges, but it doesn't affect the operation. It's for light duty only AND it's highly portable. It's incredibly easy to put together and it was shipped securely, absolutely no issues. IF you're fabricating heavy duty tank armor, this isn't your drill press, but if you're drilling holes into doorstops; firmly placing you on the enemies of the state list, this is your drill press. You'll have to adapt and improvise a little bit cuz it's only 8", but it'll poke a hole perfectly. You may have heard that before but in this case it's true. I teamed this press up with a WEN WA0392 120V 15-Amp Momentary Power Foot Pedal Switch for safety and it also works great. Another nice piece of kit from WEN. I also use it with a bench grinder (not a WEN) and of course a DeWalt DWP611 router, essential for making doorstops. I just plug whatever corded tool (15amps or less) I'm using into the back of the pedal plug, plug that into my power source, stick it on the floor and use my foot to control the off/on function of the tool....hands free so to speak, much safer. So there you go, knock yourself out. It's well worth the $100 or so bucks for the drill and what, $14 bucks for the pedal? Well worth it. Highly recommend. ... show more

  • Great low price option
Size: 2.3-Amp, 8-Inch
WEN is a great brand that provides excellent tools at a great price. I have had this drill press for over a year and it has met all my expectations. Definitely would recommend it to those looking for a simple low price option.

  • Good for the price, but wabbles
Size: 2.3-Amp, 8-Inch
You know, when you spend this little money on a tool this big, you can't expect many features, however you must expect that it at least works. For the most it works well. It's silent, which is a great plus for these kind of tools. Silent I mean in the sense of the hatch to be rattling, it has some robber stops that prevent that, it's good in this regard. There are several gear speeds for you to manually adjust, but you will end up just putting in the middle and leaving it there for the rest of your life. Assembly was quite easy, quite intuitive. For better results you better buy those drill press vises, otherwise you will have to keep clamping your piece against the tiny bed which is a pain. There is no laser guide. All and all it's good, quite heavy, the extension down of the head is OK, can't tell it's great, but goes decently down. Once assembled, it could potentially fit inside a cabinet, but I never really tried, it stays on the ground here nearby with a plastic cover. I like this tool overall, and only one thing I don't like: For some reason it wobbles the head when you install the drill bit on it, It's just a little, but it does. It wasn't bad enough to ruin any of my projects, but wanted to note here. ... show more

  • An amazing Drill Press!!!
Size: 2.3-Amp, 8-Inch
The media could not be loaded. This is far better than I could have expected for a drill press. I will be honest, I was very skeptical about ordering equipment for my woodshop online. I much rather go to a hardware store and look at my products face-to-face. However, I am so thankful I got the WEN drill press. I used to use my drill to put holes in the materials, and with that, you cannot have a clean-cut hole in your materials because your hands won't be as steady. This drill press makes very clean punctures into the wood I use. I like making those triangle peg games, and the drill performed above expectations in regards to how straight and clean the holes were. Pros: Easy to operate Setup was a breeze VERY QUIET Has different levels of speed you can change based on your project Cons: It can be tough to move the bands to change the speed levels There is little to no padding to keep the drill from gliding off the table when it is on. I have a clamp holding it down to my workbench. Changing bits can be challenging but not terribly complicated I can confidently say this is the best drill press on Amazon right now, An awesome 9/10! ... show more
