This product worked well, no doubt. The issue I had is that it is stated as a 10 inch. Not sure how they measure that. We were not able to drill all the way through a 4×4 with this tool. That being said, maybe I should have done more research

its sturdy and well made, but has far less power than even my cordless hand drill. per the manual I’ve adjusted the belt tension and rearranged the belt, but even soft pine 1″ thick or less can cause it to hang, very surprising. and using hole saw bits is a non-starter, the press hangs almost immediately.I sent a note to Wen, no response. . .

Easy to assemble and good for light to medium work.

Perfect for smaller detailed jobs. Lazer is a plus. One should also buy a WEN clamp to hold down work!

The bolts for the base the handles and wrenches were missing.

It arrived with a bent housing around motor-drive system and vibrates a decent amount when running. The initial design was good, but lost in the details. Laser pointer is strange as you lower to drill, it starts to disappear.

The drill press works great for finishing off my AR 15 Palmer 80
Barry Stehr (verified owner) –
No issues so far and set up was easy. The laser is off slightly but it’s a good guideline.

Does what it’s suppose to. Good value for the $

My husband had a craftsman model before the Wen actually was a better product. He was very pleased on the quality.
Carolyn Schaefer (verified owner) –
Pretty decent overall. I like the work lite and the laser features. Only time will tell the true quality of the unit. That being said, i would gladly pay more for a dp like this if it was made in the U.S.A. Being a machinist by trade, i have a keen eye as to the professionalism of machined parts. This machine is a typical example of low grade Chinese material and workmanship. Possibly good enough but i really want to support American manufacturing and jobs. I WANT TO BUY AMERICAN!

I think mine was a good deal for the money.
Joshuah Hartmann (verified owner) –
This is my first drill press and I am very impressed. Very smooth operation, not a lot of vibration or excessive noise. Very stable even without being clamped or screwed to the work table.
Dewitt Brown (verified owner) –
This is a terrific drill press for this price-range. Wen made this with quality components, and it is easy to figure out all of the features. The assembly instructions are easy to follow. One of the features I really like is the light right over the drilling surface.

Easy to assemble. Great size for a bench top.
