I was initially hesitant in my decision to purchase this mag base drill due to the notoriety of cheap imports, but after viewing a lengthy Youtube review of this drill (including showing some hard use) I went ahead and bought it. Just recently I had the opportunity to use it with both 22mm and 25mm Vevor annular cutters in the course of a tandem trailer rebuild, where over-boring mild steel spring rocker arms was necessary for re-sleeving. I was extremely impressed with the performance of the drill. There is no spindle runout, the annular cutters run true, the variable speed motor is responsive to load and easy to set up, the rack and pinion slide mechanism is tight and the electromagnetic base clamps down hard. I will mention though, that I was using a piece of 16mm mild steel plate as a base for the drill, which I clamped down to my work bench. The manual does specify a minimum plate thickness of 15mm for proper magnetic hold, although I'm quite sure it would have sufficient hold on slightly thinner material. Overall, I'm happy with the purchase and certainly would recommend this product. My big old drill press has now become practically redundant!
