No instructions
I knew there would be some light assembly involved, but I didn’t expect to have to do it without any instructions. The press only comes with an “assembly diagram”, which isn’t helpful at all, because by logic, I already knew where the parts went. The gear comes with a sleeve (ring), which you have to remove, otherwise the gear won’t fit into the chamber. This ring will later secure the gear into place. See attached pictures for reference. I evidently was able to figure out what to do, but it would have been nice to have instructions. Also if you’re a complete noob like me, beware that you’ll need tools - an Allen/hex key set and a wrench to be exact - which don’t come included.

Great Press for the price
We needed a tall press in our shop to press gears on to motor shafts. This was the cheapest I could find so I got it. I was surprised by the weight and how sturdy this press is. It exceeded my expectations and I put my small press in storage now I have one to do it all, and at a great price.

Beware Restock fee 15%
Rusty, Scratches and markings all over like it was returned once or twice and the craftsmanship Is Thrown together like flat rate work. The reason for my Request to Return Is simply the Wrong Product Description as you can see In the photo It measures 3".5/8" from back wall to center of ram and for that I lose money not only with the restocking fee but the time spent on this Inconvenience which I'm sure not to be the only one but hopefully the last with this Review.

Rusted right out of the package
The press works fine now after plenty of WD40 and manual clean up. I will have to buy some grease and get it on there to keep from additional rusting. Couldn’t even move the handle and had to be sprayed and worked up and dow.for about 15 minutes to get it mostly freed up and moving smoothly. Probably wouldn’t buy again

Very satisfied
Gift for my son. He says works well and is a good value for the money. Uses it to stamp leather and other purposes. Very satisfied. The first time I ordered, the product was lost in shipping by UPS. The seller provided great customer service and sent out another one right away.

Product is good but there is no hole in the metal bar

Nicely manufactured and does the job I needed it for perfectly. (Pressing cap screws into plastic thumb screws) This press needs to be secured to a base during use. The only place the manufacturer dropped the ball is that the plastic head thumb screw that presses against the hand held shaft of the press to keep it in place is useless. The screw has a flat bottom and cannot be tightened sufficiently against the round shaft to hold it in place. After a few presses the shaft becomes loose. This is easily resolved by drilling a small indent in the shaft itself to accept the end of thumb screw. A bit of lock-tite and the solution is permanent. I did not penalize the manufacturer for this and still gave them 5 stars as the press still offers excellent value. Hopefully the manufacturer will put a little indent in the side of the shaft handle near the end moving forward. This could be either drilled or milled.

Works really well for me.. the ram portion even goes around 1/8" below the surface to ensure stuff gets pushed through .. very wide back piece.. -you may want to lube up the mechanical pieces and bolt to a solid table

This arbor is great. Can't be beat for price. You will have to clean up all the tapped holes and possibly run a cleaning tap down the holes but for the price I had no problem doing a bit of preparatory maintenance on it. Works fantastic.

It can with bent and broken pieces. It is unusable.
