I have the 5 speed press from Harbor Freight, picked it up on sale at the local store for $59. It works great for small stuff. I've used it pretty hard for the past year and it works great.

X2 Works great but picked mine up off craigslist for $30.00 and it had only been used a handfull of times. (Not a scratch on it)

I got the cheap press sometime this year for a rifle build, like most HF tools it works good but its not for heavy duty use. The motor has high rpm but under load it slows. Still worked out for me, here is what I made with it

I got the little HF one 5 or so years ago on sale for $29 or $39. I figured for the price I couldn't go wrong. I have to say it has done everything I've needed it to do around the place from metal fab to hobby stuff. Ya just have to go slow on the bigger stuff. For $59 I'd shop around but this is thing has been good enough I'm not shopping for a drill press.

I Also have the harbor frieght bench top. I caught mine on sale for $39 2 years ago. It works good for the money
