This lathe is surprisingly capable, and the few things "wrong" with it respond well to a little cleaning, adjusting, tightening, etc. It's not really powerful, and although it turns aluminum and plastic without complaint, steel is a lot of work and aggressive cutting is not going to happen. Also, I don't make much use of the auto-feed; certainly not for thread-cutting, and only rarely for finish-quality feeding. The gears there are plastic, and I have not put them to the test in any way. Metal-gear kits are available, as are many other after-market mini-lathe accessories.

Needs a lot of work to get the tailstock lined up. Also some work in adjusting the carriage. Some chatter with mild steel. If you just need something to turn mild or soft metals down, this is good. It's not a 5k Jet lathe. It pretty good for what it is.

The price of this lathe is fair, the value for money is there. Ideal for beginners like me. Very basic instruction book, with very few explanations, but there are many videos on YouTube on this particular product. Poorly adjusted when it leaves the factory, you have to check all the tightening points and attachments of the carriages and also the tightening of all the gears, especially the motor drive shaft which tends to loosen, bringing noise and vibration into the machine. Before starting to turn, familiarize yourself with all the controls. I opted to buy extra metal gears to replace the original ones. When buying turning tools, you should know that this lathe is made to receive 1/2 pieces. (not mentioned anywhere). Be very careful with forward and reverse use, because you will burn the fuse, as I did. (there is only one spare). Capable of turning small parts with enough precision, ideally soft metals like Aluminum, brass or copper. Lacks strength if you have to drill threads from 3/8 -1/4. If you have to do threads with a turning tool, you will have to be patient because you have to change gears in the box and nothing is explained anywhere except on the cover of the machine very briefly. In general, we have fun with this lathe, Ideal for learning the basics.

Small out of the box issue that was taken care of quickly by outstanding customer service department. Easy to use and great price.

Decent machine - price point is irresistable. Wish it had the 1/2 speed gear reducer. Plenty of power. If you ever owned an old Craftsman/Atlas lathe, you will be right at home. 100mm 4 jaw chuck and other accessories are well made. Mill attachment needs expert file fit, but is of good quality. Faceplate comes from "LittleMachineShop.com", and is apparently a Vevor oversight. When it wears out, a very long time from now, I will get a bigger one.

Lo he recibido en mi taller-casa y he quedado maravillado. Agradezco tan buena calidad y la prontitud para la entrega. Muchas gracias y los recomiendo ampliamente.

Overall it is a really nice machine, however; it does not come with the 10 mm bolts to fasten the bottom tray.

I needed a small lathe for my shop. The shipping was faster then i expected, And box it came in was well made to protect it, It was very easy to setup and once together there was very few things that needed to be adjusted, I have never used a lathe so learning as I go, There are lots of video's out there that help. Over all i am really happy with it, I now need to get a small vertical mill. I will be looking at what Vevor has and will wait till i see the one i want go on sale, I added a pic as i'm still setting up my little metal shop.

I bought this metal lathe after a lot of online research and reviews. It's a hobby machine for me and works well for that purpose. I've never machined metal before but I wanted to add to my wood-working hobby by playing around with shaped and polished, brass and aluminum. I am not machining to any precision, just shaping ornamental pieces and components. The ordering, communications and delivery from Vevor exceeded my expectations. The well-made crate was delivered on time and professionally. Everything that was ordered was in the crate and undamaged. Communications from Vevor was excellent. The machine itself met my expectations. It needed a lot of setting up and tuning. Things like disassembly, cleaning, reassembly, oiling, alignment and tightening of slides and gibs. All this was expected - it was a good experience to learn how the machine works. I was turning brass and aluminum in less than 2 days. Although the tool holder and brazed carbide cutting tools worked, my first purchase after the lathe was a Quick Change Tool Post and indexable carbide tools set. NOTE: the correct size for the QCTP is OXA and the tools themselves are 3/8 inch. I built a custom bench with tool storage for the lathe, the week after receiving it.

Had it for almost a year now, and for the price it has done well. However it would have been nice to know before buying, that the lead screws are all in a metric pitch and won't cut SAE threads. Motor lacks power as well, has a tendency to stall out on single point threading.
