Customer Reviews and Testimonials
Sam Douglas from United KingdomShipped quickly and well packaged, worked correctly out of the box, setup was simple. I love everything about this small wood lathe, especially the CNC controller, all projects are finished automatically. I’ve used this unit several times making from bowls to table legs. All the pieces are high quality. There is no wobble or shake. I’ve continued using the CNC lathe without issue in the last few months.
Tynset from CanadaThe lathe is awesome, sturdy made and runs smooth. Love the variable speeds and easy adjustable. Especially the CNC controller, it makes all turning automatically. The CNC lathe meets all expectations. I would highly recommend this unit to any one.
Kermit Deramus from United StatesReplaces a 60+ year-old Craftsman wood lathe. A nice piece of machinery for the beginner, or the next step up, for a home based wood-butcher hobbyist. Enjoy the sawdust you’ll create, Tech support is responsive and concise. Good deal all around… STYLECNC also offers lots of tools
Leah A Harrison from United KingdomThis was an anniversary gift to my husband. I don’t know if it’s a good starter lathe for beginners. My husband had machine shop in high school so he had experience with metal lathes, this one is for wood. He loves it. We had one a wood lathe from Grizzly Industrial to begin with that worked just fine, but no CNC controller. This STYLECNC branded machine with CNC, according to my husband is extremely smooth running and the variable speed control is a luxury to enjoy. He was happy with the gift overall. I’m very happy with this purchase. Its a bit more expensive than some other lathes but well worth it. I would definitely purchase it again.
Samuel from AustraliaThis is my first lathe to own. I have used a number of other lathes and this one is at the top. It is very quiet and smooth. The great lathe machine that not only turns bowls. I also make wood spindles on this lathe. This is plenty powerful for almost any job within the size limit of the lathe. Perfect for all my projects. It is an excellent tool for making wood stair balusters. Speed settings are easy to change. It will give you a good range of speeds for just about any project.
Chloe from United KingdomGreat lathe machine.
My husband has gotten into woodturning and this was the best beginner machine for him.
He is making pens, bowls, vases, wine bottle stoppers and all kinds of things. It is a small size to just get started, it has worked well, he seems very happy with it.
Morgan from RussiaI’ve had mine for about two years, and I like it. It’s much better than the craftsman lathe I used to use. The variable speed is nice, and finish is excellent. This I think would be a good investment for someone looking for a CNC wood lathe.
Brad Eley from United StatesThis is my first lathe machine to start turning bowls and pens. The CNC controller makes it to be a time saver with automatic variable speed control. It is an easy lathe and I have been completely satisfied with it.
