User Comments about the DELTA 46-715 9.8 Amp 14-Inch Swing by 40-Inch between Centers 3/4-Horsepower Woodworking Lathe, 120-Volt 1-Phase

This product became unusable with only limited use. This is the last product that I buy from Black & Decker (Delta is owned by them). The big problem came with attempts to get new parts. A fast summary = 10 months without use, $350.00 cost of new parts to make usable with only a need for a new pully.



I wish I could give an honest review of this lathe, but I have been unable to order one. Buyer beware. I have tried to order on two different sites and have been told that they are no longer available. Still trying to get credit to my account.



I WAS just a little bit hesitant to buy this lathe because the reviews were not all positive. Buy it, you will like it. I am really glad I did, though, because it is a very good piece of equipment. It was easy to set up, runs quietly, hardly any vibration, and I am thoroughly satisfied.



My father bought this lathe and within weeks the switch broke and he had to wait months for a replacement switch, and then a few months later, the switch broke again, and he is having to wait months for a replacment switch. I am going to look into returning it and getting a different model.



I started to not choose this lathe due to a hand full of negative reviews here but am very glad that I decided to purchase it. Not saying that's the case here, unfortunately some flawed products get past quality control. I am very pleased with the Delta 46-715 lathe. But please don't let one or two bad apples spoil the whole barrel. It has been running trouble free for at least four hours every day for the past month. Many can be attributed to malcontents.people that just don't like anything. After downloading their comparison test of six lathes priced under $1000 I discovered that the Delta 46-715 came in second over all and was their choice for best-buy.


I've been using it for a month now, and when I say using it I mean it. I couldn't imagine that Delta made a problematic product like described in reviews below so I checked with Wood magazine. Read reviews on other sites as well before you make the mistake of passing on a fantastic product like the Delta 46-715HAPPY TURNING Delta 46-715 9.8 Amp 14-Inch Swing by 40-Inch between Centers 3/4-Horsepower Woodworking Lathe, 120-Volt 1 Phase You have to take negative reviews with a grain of salt.
