VEVOR 12 in Benchtop Drill Press, 5 Amp 120V, Variable Speed Cast Iron Bench Drill Press, 12 in Swing Distance 0-45° Tiltling Worktable with Laser Work Light, Tabletop Drilling Machine for Wood Metal

Like most people, I don't have a large drill press lying around. When I needed to drill a hole on a board, I just hole my power drill and stay still as best I can. This is fine if you don't need perfectly aligned holes. If you DO, then you need to use a drill press, and this one is a bargain!! It's good quality, gets great results, it's easy to start up right out of the box, and wont damage your wallet too much (compared to most other brands). I also like the lighting function, it's very helpful.

This VEVOR 8" benchtop drill press has been an excellent addition to the workshop and did exactly what we needed it to do: drill clean holes in oyster shells without cracking them. The 5-speed range up to 3200 RPM and steady induction motor make it easy to find a speed that’s gentle enough for brittle material but still powerful and consistent. ​The compact size fits well on a bench, yet it feels stable while drilling, and the adjustable, tilting table helps position shells and other small projects at the right angle. For a reasonably priced press that handled a niche task like oyster shells “perfectly” and will also cover general wood and metal jobs, it has proven to be a very practical and versatile tool, that my wife works without asking me to handle her crafting projects.

This is just the ticket for the money. I needed a small press that wasn't going to be overtaxed with heavy duty metalworking and drilling. This little machine with be great for what I need. Runs fine, packaged well, very satisfactory!

Great price, love the adjustable speed and digital rpm readout. For a benchtop drill press, this unit is REALLY heavy, it really requires its own stand or station. It really can't be moved around much except if on a roller stand. The laser cross hairs actually do not line up with the center of the drill bit, not sure if that is adjustable or not. The built in light is very nice and convenient as well as the built in holder for the chuck key. The smoothness of the chuck rotation is excellent with zero wobble as one would expect. The adjustable table height is convenient with a combined lock/crank handle to raise/lower. If on a budget, this is a value and very stable drill press. Some minimal assembly is required.

Another great VEVOR branded product. Press is well made (not a heavy-duty construction however). Base is pressed steel, and the adjustable sliding worktable is cast steel. The tube is on the thin side but is adequate for the model size and its usage. Noise level is on the quite side. Assembly took me about 10 minutes. Press is not too heavy and is easy to move around. I bought this press just to do engine turning on small metal parts and its perfect for that purpose. I've never been disappointed with VEVOR branded products.

Quality is decent. I did have to reinstall the nut the holds the idler pulley on as it was completely off. The motor is a little under powered but it does seem to do the job. The stroke on this thing is very short. I can’t drill straight through a 2” piece of square tubing without drilling one side, raising the deck and then drilling the other side. It also has some internal grinding drag to it. It’s smooth them it hits something during the stroke. The spring back is a little weak as well. The lever to loosen the deck clamp and adjust the deck height is a real pain. For the money though it drills holes in my unistrut just fine and saves my arms from wearing out using a hand held drill. I believe it’s worth the money. It’s not very loud and easy to assemble and adjust the speed. Do not buy this for quality that will last. This is for occasional light use. I have to use it once a month to put two 1/4” holes in 15 pieces of unistrut so it’s fine for what I need it for. Time will tell but for like $110 it’s not too bad.

Surprisingly sturdy for a small benchtop unit. The speed options cover everything I’ve needed so far, and the LED light is handy. It’s not a heavy-duty machine, but for everyday shop projects it’s been reliable. For the price, it does exactly what it should.

I was not only wanting a nice Good priced drill press but one of good quality, I must say in my opinion this is an excellent drill press came nicely packed, easy to setup good instruction manual, laser set-up a little touchy but really nice an accurate really well made the 1/" chuck heavy duty opens an closes with ease setting the motor speed only when running is easy with a little label guide printed near the upper belt cover, was way to set up, in the instructions say help w/ set-up friend or foe, funny I thought but I'm 68 yrs. Old and did it myself runs great nice led light I mounted it on a black an decker 425 wk. Bench I had for yrs. Gave me the perfect wkng. Height mounted it w/2 5/16" x 3" bolts with washers an self locking nuts, holes provided in drill press base and drilled 2 3/8" holes in the wk. Bench nich an sturdy. This is a well made an well engineered product if your wanting one at a great price an easy to set-up an operate I'd buy this one love Amazon great products, enjoy it'll definitely wk. For you, I got it at the sale price, get the 5 amp.

Muy recomendable, buena potencia, calidad muy aceptable, fácil ensamblaje. En general lo recomiendo ampliamente!!!

Parfait, fait le job

Ho acquistato il trapano a colonna VEVOR da 203,2 mm e ne sono rimasto davvero soddisfatto. Per il prezzo, è un attrezzo eccellente e mi ha sorpreso la sua qualità costruttiva. ​Il motore a induzione da 500 W è potente e non ha problemi a forare anche materiali più duri. La velocità regolabile è un'altra caratteristica che apprezzo molto, in quanto mi permette di adattarla perfettamente al tipo di lavoro che sto svolgendo, che si tratti di legno, metallo o plastica. L'assemblaggio è stato semplice e il manuale di istruzioni è chiaro. Il mandrino tiene saldamente le punte e la profondità di foratura è facile da regolare e bloccare. ​È un attrezzo preciso e stabile, il che lo rende ideale sia per hobbisti che per piccoli laboratori. Nonostante non sia un modello professionale di fascia alta, per l'uso domestico e per progetti di fai da te è più che sufficiente. Lo consiglio vivamente a chiunque cerchi un trapano a colonna affidabile e con un ottimo rapporto qualità-prezzo.

It’s so weak it can barely put a hole through anything. First and last time I ever buy from Vevor

Have not actually tried the drill itself yet but seems decent quality and went together well.
