Remember when power tools were actually powerful? WEN’s 10 in. swing variable speed drill press with laser centering device is a powerhouse for your shop. Packed with features that you’ll find in larger more industrial type drill presses. This drill press has the power to drill through metal, wood and other materials. The variable speed feature allows you to target in the exact speed (infinitely from 530-3100) that works for your project. Simply move a lever and adjust the speed as needed. No pulleys and belts to change. Our design uses a mechanical variable speed which allows for the same power and torque through the entire speed range. A digital readout displays the running speed. Constructed with a rigid frame consisting of cast iron. Its powerful induction motor features ball bearings for an extended life and it all comes together with smooth and balanced performance even at high speeds. The 1/2 in. chuck with JT33 spindle taper gives you versatility with a variety of bits and features on-board chuck key storage, so you never have to hunt around for it. Worktable bevels 45° left and right for those tricky operations for the perfect right angles consistently. Base has pre-drilled holes for mounting onto a bench or work stand. Slotted table allows for mounting clamps and vises for effective mounting. The X-pattern laser locks-on to your drill points saving on guesswork and sparing expensive materials. Remember when you could drill with laser precision? Remember WEN.

So far so good and I love how easy it is to change the speed. The laser’s a little bit off and requires a battery.

Just ok

Easy to assemble! I really like the variable speed adjustment that doesn’t require adjusting belts. Self ejecting chuck key is an excellent feature. Quick depth adjustment and easy table movement that is accurate is nice. The laser is a good feature but for fine work precision adjustments must be performed. For a low cost drill press it performs well and will be used for many years to come.

Works as advertised. Not a fan of the laser being battery powered and everytime you set table heightyou have to adjust alignment with drill. Oveall drill works as advertised with few exceptions as identified above.

It was fairly easy to assemble and performs quite well for the price. The variable speed lever is a tremendous plus. I will recommend this Drill press to anyone.
Rhoda Luettgen (verified owner) –
easy to use, very fast and efficient
Lauretta Gorczany (verified owner) –
Goes together easily, runs fairly quietly and has enough weight to be stable on your bench. Might need to do some precision setup etc but overall worth every dime.

Overall a good value for a tabletop drill press

So far a great drill press, I like the variable speed, laser and digital RPM indicator. Time will tell, but i think its way better than the others drill presses on offer, does not look cheap.

Does Everything I need love variable speed and strong motor.

The drill was easy to assemble. Everything good except the laser guide. They were not aligned and worked some time but did not indicate the correct center. I tried changing batteries the red light is on but it is not aligned. The warranty says I have to send it with prepaid return freight. That would be a lot of money, will call next week to see if there is a service center nearby to take it there.

Great drillpress love the speed control on it.
Leonora Kunze (verified owner) –
Exceeded my expectations. Quite. Love the ease of changing speeds. More than adequate for a DIY’er.

Arrived without damage to my local store. Assembly instructions are fine and the assembly went smoothy. The drill itself works well and is pretty solid. I’d buy it again.
Kellen Nitzsche (verified owner) –
Love it. It is the perfect drill press when my larger drill press or drilling with a drill won’t work.
Avery Emmerich (verified owner) –
Bought for my son for Christmas. Just what he wanted. Plenty of power for his woodworking projects. Came in fast and well packaged.
Holly Parisian (verified owner) –
Can with damaged part, was quickly replaced, works great.
Jada Will (verified owner) –
not had much of a chance to try it out. the chuck seems decent. the press itself i think needs some breaking in, it is a bit gritty. i think for the money you’d be hard ‘pressed’ to find anything comparable for under 250.

Accurate, heavy duty, laser pinpoint is accurate. Plenty of power.

The drill was easy to assemble and it is is to use like the labor sight for the drill.
