All in all, I was pleased with this purchase. The on/off switch is large and placed well. All in all, I was pleased with this purchase. Speeds go low enough for larger metal bits. The whole unit shakes more than I would like.
I would buy it again the next chance I get. That's why I gave it five stars. I think its a great buy for the money. I really like this drill press for the money. Anything bigger would be overkill.
