I had a problem since the lathe was delivered and the customer service went above an beyond to make things right. Once I got the lathe running, I made all the necessary adjustments and it's working like a charm Thanks to the great staff at Customer Service!!!

There are a lot of bad reviews of this model of lathe and yes some are well-earned. Although at the end of the day, my lathe was missing some parts and needed some setup to be ready to use, it works pretty darn well now. Is it perfect no, will it work for 95% of my projects yes, and then some. I found that the magnets were loose for the Tachometer and once those were all found and put in their respective places the Tachometer worked perfectly. The Saddle was loose and not sitting square with the ways. I made some minor adjustments by scraping the ways and adjusting the saddle side plates; now it is rock steady. The lead screw for the auto feed sticks out too far from the base so that had to be milled down a bit to fix the issue. Finally, the Cross Slide Feed Nut was barely hanging on and once that was properly secured, all of the play in the Cross Slide was eliminated.Your mileage may vary!

I purchased this for making small parts for film processors and related items. It works very well for my needs.
