Hi John
german product (no chinese rubbish)
aehm.. I know a guy who has one and he's totally happy with it. I also looked at these machines on a fair and it looks quite good. Of course, you can't compare it with a professional milling machine but for hobby its a good machine. The only weakness is the speed controller of the electric motor. If you want the rpm to be constant, its recommended to either buy the High speed version with frequency inverter on the basic configuration or to replace the standard motor and to put a three phase motor with frequency inverter. I would do this when the speed controller breaks down the first time. (This sometimes happens. But there are lots of guys having a wabeco for years with no speed controller damage..)
