Customer Reviews for VEVOR 210 x 800 Mini Metal Lathe 850W Machine Variable Speed 50-2250 RPM

Had to do some upgrades to it, but overall happy with

This metal lathe with high price/performace ratio. Very suitable for beginer or intermediate wood workers if they wanna not to spend so much. Really easy to set up and use,the lathe works just as expected.

I'm a retired mechanical person and was a machine maintenance supervisor ,so I always tinker and repair ,build or fool around with machinery .It's not the gigantic factory lathes, but it serves my purpose. Billie

With a few hours of cleaning, and some minor upgrades, I now have a very accurate professional machine. The stickers are a little crooked and It came covered in oil, but that is a good thing. That way it couldn't rust. The one in the picture looks like it has some loose parts that need tightened. I took a chance and for once I came out on top.

For the price it's okay, but only just. The lead screw speed is simply just too fast and cannot be adjusted to go any slower without major modifications. Using components just because they fit in the available space is simply not acceptable.
