I just ordered this. Thought I'd share and also maybe get some feedback on what others thought.

I asked about the quality of Wen Tools when this sale went up the other day and got 0 response.

Also, any thoughts on this milling vice?

You asked about wen when?

Well, I guess I'll have to report on the WEN when it arrives in a couple of weeks. It had better horsepower than the comparably priced HF unit. I don't think the laser is worth much but a stronger motor has to be worthwhile. I hate to be the guinea pig here but somebody has to I guess.

Don't know if you saw it but there are 5 reviews on Home Depot's website for this same drill press http://www.homedepot.com/p/WEN-8-in-Drill-Press-with-Laser-Guide-4205/203602870#customer_reviews

All 4 or 5 stars

I'm also guinea pigging.

For $60, lots of cutting oil and go

I wonder if these are better than the HF at $50???
