Wood Lathe, 14" x 40" Benchtop Wood Lathe Machine 0.5 HP Infinitely Variable Speed 1040-2980 RPM, Wood Turning Lathe Machine with Wrench & 2 Chisels for Woodworking, Woodturning

I have not had it very long but I did turn a bat that turned out pretty nice. No it’s not like the beefy powerful lathes but it did well for its price and what I want it for.

Works as it should. Had a few bolts come loose the first couple times I used mine but no big deal to tighten them up and move on. If I had to criticize; I would say it’s a little under powered but not so much to really be a problem. Overall very good value for the price

This is so cheap!! I wish I never bought it!!! My husband tried everything to try and get it to center but when he tightened it, it stripped! He bought parts to try and use it but NOTHING fit! Don’t buy it! If there was a zero I would rate it that.

My husband loves it

A cheaply priced option for beginners to learn on. Be prepared for a lot of vibration no matter how it’s mounted. The main shaft of the lathe is only supported by the thin metal housing and four allen bolts. Changing the speed is a hassle, the motor has to be loosened from the back underside, then open two panel doors and then move belt and then retighten. The housing has separated numerous times and I have had to install structural supports to help keep it together. Spend the extra money and buy a better unit.

Works well for what I needed.

Pretty good.easy to use. Good starter, but that’s about it. PITA to change speeds

My husband is enjoying learning and working with this lathe. He says it what he was looking for as a beginner.
