Customer Reviews for VEVOR 8 in Benchtop Drill Press Tabletop Drilling Machine 750-3200RPM Adjustable

Drill press works as expected, easy to mount to slide out on back of truck for mobile use. All parts provided readily.

This is a very heavy duty drill press. As always, The deliveries are always timely. I will continue to shop Vevor products, the quality is always upper end

Setting up out of the box: The user needs to attach the press tower to the powder-coated cast-iron base (using your own wrench), the cast and machined-flat table to the press tower, and the drive assembly to the top of the tower. Once this is complete, the user needs to clean the mating surfaces of the chuck and spindle, then use a hammer to attach the chuck onto the spindle. I did this, tested the trueness of my chuck assembly, and discovered some wobble. A couple more medium whacks with the hammer, and the chuck was set nice and true. The table on mine was not squared to the drill bit axis. I used a long Philips screwdriver stuck in the chuck, handle side down, with a small carpenter's square, to get the left-to-right (X-axis) alignment correct. The indicators for degrees of tilt on the table should not be trusted out of the box. Luckily, the table is square front to back (Y-axis), as this is not adjustable on this model. I then adjusted the pulleys to the lowest speed, easily done with no tools. My impressions: Once set up, I was able to rattle off several small home and hobby projects that had been held up due to needing good, 90-degree holes made, including counter-sinking, using the chuck stop on the left side of the press. Get yourself some small C-clamps for holding work steady on the table (different hardnesses in the wood grain can can make pull your project out of alignment) and supply your own work light to shine on the project area, as one is not included with this model. *For the money* this is a good little beginner drill press that has met and, in some cases exceeded, my expectations. If you want more bells, whistles and convenience, spend more on another more expensive model. For occasional home and hobby uses, this is a great little press.

It's heavy for its size and that's a plus. First use was flawless - drilling a 1/32" hole to a depth of 1/8" to modify and repair a camera part. One more similar repair and the drill press will have paid for itself.

This drill press performs exceptionally well. I primarily utilize it for constructing birdhouses, but I have no doubt it excels in other applications as well. The assembly process was quick, taking only 5 to 10 minutes, and the instructions were straightforward and easy to follow. I would highly recommend this drill press to anyone engaged in small woodworking projects as a hobby.

Constructed with a durable cast iron base, this drill press ensures stability and reduces vibration, resulting in more accurate and controlled drilling. The 5-speed settings cater to various materials and project requirements, offering flexibility and precision. The easy-to-adjust depth stop and spindle travel enhance the overall user experience, allowing for consistent drilling depths. Assembly is a breeze with clear instructions, and the black and orange color scheme adds a touch of style to the workspace. The adjustable worktable and beveling feature accommodate a range of angles and project demands, proving the versatility of this drill press. While the 8-inch size may not be suitable for industrial-scale projects, it is ideal for hobbyists and those with limited space.

Well made easy to assemble and change speeds.

Haven't cleared a space for permanent mounting so the wife agreed to let me use her dining room table! I'm using two panel meters and two SPST illuminated switches so holes needed drilling. Fortunately the panel switches included a hole saw so all I had to do was buy the appropriate size saw for the meters! After determining how best to clamp the work, I enlisted the wife to help hold the laser panel while I torqued it all up. As you can see, the drill press performed FLAWLESSLY! Out of the box and 10 minutes later? JOB DONE! Excellent value and quality!

A good little drill press I have drilled several large holes with forshner bits and a hole saw. Looks like it is well built and will last a long time. I have not drilled any metal yet and that’s not what I bought it for so I imagine it would drill thin steel but if you are expecting miracles for a hundred dollars you better buy something much larger. It will be perfect for my needs. I added a ply wood base to clamp it to my bench and to the table for a larger surface so I could use my drum sander.

Works like it's supposed to and hasn't had any issues
