Pending on frequentcy of use. HF products are great for the occassional user. They do offer warrantys and seem to honor them w/o questions. I do have a few hand tools in which are not used much but serve the purpose. I do use 2 Jet lathes and have to say flawless. I looking to replace my old floor drill press because of a worn M#2 spindle. HF models look too "cheap". Grizzely has reasonable products and at the woodshop i work at, has a few floor model products. Check out their mini lathe.
