Review: Nice Little Lathe at a Very Competitive Price! - Fast shipment from the vendor & very professional! I would recommend this machine to any of my friends. It's a great bargain for its size class. The machine arrived undamaged. Everything appears to be working as it should. Tolerances and runouts are as advertised and will not require much, if any adjustment. It's just a nice little lathe! Machines packed for overseas transport are usually covered with clear cosmoline or something similar. This unit was no exception. Expect to get several shop towels saturated wiping off the bulk of it, then use WD-40 to dissolve and wipe off any of it that remains. It's also a good idea to check the gears for detritis like wood chips and styrofoam that popped off the inside of the crate due to stapling of the crate at the factory to prepare the machine for transport. The stiff, brown grease on the gears in the drive train is for lubrication. As long as it's clean, there's no need to remove it. I plan to keep it well lubricated and use Vactra way oil on the various gibs, dovetails, and Morse tapers. Regular oiling of the lead screws and bearings that have oil ports is best practice and the machine should last for many years if you take care of it. Swarf it down at the end of every work session and when you expect to leave it sitting idle for extended periods of time. One thing that's often overlooked by newcomers is shimming the lathe bed. If you want to maintain tighter tolerances and minimize errors, shim the legs of the lathe bed to remove any twists. The rubber feet supplied with the lathe are not helpful in this regard. Bolt the lathe feet to a heavy bench and add shims. YouTube has several good videos showing how to do this. As to the several comments about the motor not running, READ THE INSTRUCTIONS!. There are several interlocks on this machine. The plastic cover over the lathe chuck has an interlock to ensure it is closed. The motor will not run if the cover is open. The Forward and Reverse switch on the front of the unit has to be set to the desired direction or the switch will trip out. And ALWAYS be sure to stop the machine when changing gears or directions. This thing isn't like a vehicle. Any time the gears or direction are changed, ensure the chuck is not turning! One other thing worth mentioning is that tachometer sensor under the end cover has to be close (but not touching) the left end of the lathe shaft. The small metal studs must clear the tachometer sensor. But if the sensor is too far away, the tachometer might register the rotational speed as something other than what it actually is. When I first turned on my machine, mine was reading about half the correct value. This is easy to fix by pushing the sensor a little closer to the shaft encoders, the small studs surrounding the end of the shaft. I have also seen a few people complaining about the lathe tools. These are brazed carbide cutters and need to be correctly sharpened before using. As with most brazed carbide cutters, it's up to the user to profile and sharpen them as needed before using them. You will likely also need to shim them in the tool holder to center them up to your workpiece. The lathe tool muti-tool holder will allow several cutter sizes. The ones in the included kit are 10mm x 10mm. If the cutter isn't lined up with with the vertical center of the workpiece, then watch some Youtube videos that explain how to do it. There is plenty of support for these machines on the Internet. If you have trouble finding videos, remember these all use similar parts that are made in the same factories in China. I agree that the multi-tool holder is a bit lacking and perhaps even more than a little clumsy. And depending on the metal you are working with, brazed carbide cutters might not be the best choice. They are typically used for cutting mild steel. Materials like high speed steel (HSS), titanium nitride, or cobalt steel cutter tools might be a better choice for other metals. It's just a budget tool holder with some general purpose tools for those who might not need anything better. There are lots of tool manufacturers with thousands of specialized tools available. Several recommendations are Shars Tool, Harvey Tools, and Tormach. There are several after-market quick change tool holders that will fit this machine with little or no modification. Remember, you are at liberty to add after-market parts and modify this machine as you desire. For small shop and hobbyist work, it's impossible to guess what every end user might need or expect. So watch videos, read books from the old timers, and ask questions. Someone will likely have a solution for whatever you may encounter. Also, remember that the larger the machine, the greater the cost for the tooling and work holding attachments. The cost of tooling and add-ons goes up exponentially with size of the machine. Many production shops that are trying to reduce turnaround time will expect more than the mini lathes and mini mills are capable of. If you expect the small machines to plow through the toughest metals with just a few passes, they just aren't capable of doing so. But most are capable of doing a decent job if you aren't in a hurry, take shallower cuts, use the right cutting tools, and don't have a long line of customers waiting. If you don't believe me, then look at what some of the so-called "model engineers" do with these things and even smaller machines of various brands. A good place to start is with the Home Shop Machinist books by Village Press, Inc if you are here in the US, and with lathe and mill books from Fox Chapel Books if you are in the UK or other countries. desertcart has both available.
Review: Good mini lathe with cool features - Now that I've had this lathe for about a year, I can say it has really impressed me. It needs the normal "going through" that all of these Asian imports do (alignments, adjustments, etc). I've filled up a few 5 gallon bucks with shavings, so I've used it quite a bit. It has good power for pretty much anything you can fit in it, but at slow speeds you can still stall it out. No big deal, just don't go jamming the tooling into the piece at slow speeds. The threading feature works pretty dang good, I was really impressed with that. Not changing gears around for different threads is a game changer in the cheap lathe category. If you are on the fence about it, I will say it is worth it if you need small lathe or just want to get into a new hobby. Mine had some small defects in the casting on the slide that didn't affect performance too much and they took care of me. I've made all kinds of things from spacers to bushings to bolts, and it's done a great job with everything I've thrown at it.

### ⭐ Electrical, Mechanical, and Customer Service issues. Not recommended.
*by K***E on January 30, 2026*

Run, don’t walk away from considering these Vevor Lathes. This is the first time I have ever felt compelled to write a review of a product. I bought this product for my son and I to do Cross Kart and Hot Rod projects with. It seemed to be a logical purchase considering the price and the level of machine work we needed to do. I was wrong. I have purchased two Vevor bench top lathes in the last 5 months. The first was a MX-S716G, 800 watt, 7”x16” metal lathe. This lathe worked for 30 minutes, at which time it shot sparks out of the electrical box. I changed the fuse which immediately blew when I tried to turn the machine on, indicating an internal dead short. I returned the equipment for a full refund. I decided to purchase a second Vevor Lathe, thinking that the failure of the MX-S716G was an exception and not the norm for this brand. My second purchase was the Vevor MX-S1170, 1250 watt, 8.7”X39”, with the brushless motor. This lathe lasted 3 days (approximately 4 hours of run time) before the motor controller shorted out. The machine would come on but the chuck would not turn. I contacted Vevor via email asking for help with this issue. Their response was timely, apologizing for the inconvenience, promising to resolve the issue within 48 hours. SEVENTEEN DAYS and 18 emails later, I am still getting the run-a-round, asking me to “check this” and “confirm that”. The troubleshooting instructions I received were unclear and void of safety precautions. Because I am well versed in the electrical / mechanical field, I can read between the lines when I’m being instructed to remove the back panel to inspect and test electronic components, where electrical shock hazards exist. Others may not. Bench top lathes are considered by many to be an “entry level” machine. I agree with that in most cases, but not with the two I've owned. Several reviews raise the issue of loose components that need to be disassembled, cleaned, and reassembled because of sloppy assembly practices. I found this to be true with both of the Vevor lathes I purchased. Neither of them would hold acceptable tolerances under 0.020 inches at first. I could accept a tolerance of 0.005” out of the box with the ability to achieve better after some adjustments. I struggled justifying the need to repair a brand-new piece of equipment before using it. The carriage assembly was loose, and the cross slides were binding due to contamination not removed during assembly. The tailstock and tool rest were way off center, and the ways were rusty to mention just a few issues found. I cannot recommend these models of Vevor lathes to anyone other than a highly skilled Machinist with an electronics expert in their back pocket. My two experiences have cost me a lot of time and frustration along with delays in my personal projects.
