Good value for price

Machine easy to assemble, for the price good value.

Rear wheel bracket is to week for the machine, bent on first move, had to fit new stronger wheel brackets
The guide that hold the surface plate that makes it a vertical bandsaw is not square to the cutting blade and I will have to either machine square or shim to suit.

I am still pleased with machine and it will do the work that I have in mind.
If I was doing more heavy engineering I would need a better m/c

Good points - Bad points

You get what you pay for.

I bought it for the vertical ability use.
You do need an light on the table.
Wheel bracket on RHS has bent already - needs to be sturdier.
Cuts metal OK
Bolts instead of hand knobs for access panels! What's that about?

I will modify to suit my needs - see pics

Sturdy with a potential for long life.

Product good quality, with a number of features that make it stand out from some of the other Far East offerings. Works well, providing square cuts and quick operation. Some of the assembly instructions did expect the user to know a little about machine construction, but it was helpful to have a manual written in clear English.
I would recommend it to anyone looking for a metal bandsaw. Need to shop around because the prices charged vary widely. All appear to be shipped by Sealey however.

Convient size to move around the workshop.

A very useful machine and accurate once set up carefully. The stand could do with being more sturdy and higher.
The wheels are too small making it quite tippy. The screw at the top of the blade guard, (when in the vertical position) has been placed behind the top wheel making access difficult, another 1/2" of material added towards the centre of the wheel would make the job of replacing the screw much easier.
Overall a useful buy if you are prepared to tweek it.
