Mini Lathe, WM101A-Plus Mini Wood Lathe Machine, 24VDC 96W Power Lathe, Small Benchtop Lathe with Wood Turning Lathe Tools Kits, Infinitely Variable Speed, Professional for DIY Woodworking

Works great. Purchased this to bore precision holes in solid copper rod. Excellent. Took moments to figure out. Excellent torque, great speed control. Instructions are minimal, but was easy to make work. Takes up a small space. Great value. Very solid . I admit I was surprised by how well made it is. Sturdy and somewhat heavy. Great hobby lathe. Nice!

What fun. I love this lathe. It comes with everything you need and works great. It runs smoothly and quietly. Don’t expect it to turn larger pieces but it works great on the appropriate sized projects. I was amazed that the chuck provided worked like the full sized version. The cutting tools work well and it’s great they don’t need to be sharpened. All in all this is a quality unit, with a ton of accessories, and works well. Definitely would recommend and buy it again.

Nice little lathe! I didn't buy this for turning wood I got it to drill holes in brass and it had more than enough power to do the job. When not in use it's small enough to put under a bench or on a top shelf

UPDATED: raised from 1 Star to 4 stars. Vendor on their own reached out to offer a refund. Very commendable. I even ordered the lathe again to give it another shot Worked once and died. I have 20 years of wood working experience and do not abuse tools. I ordered this for a small bottle tops fabrication project. I used this once on a test run milling down a piece of 1" wood dowel just to get the feel of the machine. Worked fine. Plugged it in the second time and motor does no turn on. Lights on the power adapter and lathe both on but motor is silent. Trouble shooting guide is worthless and cannot find a way to contact the manufacturer. Buy something more quality

I absolutely love it! As far as a hobby goes I’m digging carving up all sorts of wood and making round stuff. Really sturdy, super easy to use, and as far as value for money I think they could double the price

It works for simple things but it is weak and can't take a lot of pressure on wood. Not good for acrilic material. I bought it to turn pens but it's not the best.

This is a great option for a mini lathe.

This is a miniature lathe. It is built well and solid. Being the "WM101a plus" model it comes with plenty of accessories. I have run it with wood and pewter. It works well. This is a 1 hp (not HP) motor - hamster power not horse power. When turning, take no more than a paper thin layer at a time and it will work very well. Take more and the motor stops but resumes. The lathe tools use standard size carbide blades so replacements easy to get. Again this is a miniature lathe not a mini lathe - it cost more than my Wen mini lathe but this is very convenient to move around and set up, weighing less than 10 lbs. I am pleased and impressed with it.
