Good for beginners like me
Size: 8x12“
I've wanted to get into wood turning for a long time, but thought I had neither the space nor the money to do so. Measuring about 21 inches long, 8 inches wide, and weighing about 40 pounds, it is small enough for me to put it on either my workbench or workmate for use, and store it away when not in use. It quite sturdy and stable on its own, not a lot of vibration when running. Very easy to use right out of the box (there are a few pieces to put on, but nothing complicated). It can take up to a 12 inch long piece of wood (maybe longer). The speed is easily adjustable. Overall, a good value for the money. A chisel or two would have been a nice inclusion, but I'm not griping too much about that. ... show more

Well built. Good power easy to use.
Size: 12x18"
Been making cups and pens on it since it was delivered. No boging issue even using a 2 1/2 fostner bit. Works great. I am excited to make a bowl next.

Interference fit handwheel
Size: 8x12“
Solid machine. My only complaint is the handwheel on the tail stock is slipping and now I cannot retract it. I'll have to pin it or tap it and add some set screws. A little annoying but can't expect much for the price.

Drive belt looks cheap and motor gets real hot after a little use so buy and try it for yourself not bad I guess for the price.

Great value for the money.
Size: 12x18"
Very good construction. Surprised to see all cast iron frame, tail stock and belt compartment. Runs great for small workshop projects.

Great!
Size: 12x18"
Unable to find a single chuck attachment that fits. This spindle thread is not a normal size. Useless. Should have purchased a different one
