Short life span |
After drilling about 300 holes in wood, the drill press started making a grinding noise and vibrating excessively. When I took it to the repair shop the technician told me it was probably the bearings. He commented that Delta uses cheap bearings made in China and they fail at a high rate. That was about a month ago. The repair shop had to send the press back to Delta and I haven't heard a word from anyone since.
While the press was working I was happy with it, except I would like a little more power for using hole saws on hardwood. |

Delta DP350 Shopmaster Drill press |
I have had and used this drill press for about 2 years. I find the variable speed to be easy to use and why did'nt i have this drill press sooner, it would have been nice to have when building my street rod.
It drills very accurately, excellent when you use tap drills,for threading stock. I have been doing machine work for 40 years,both as a hobby and on the job, this drill press is worth the $$$$$ |

The drill press is a good product but beware of the shipping and packaging. The box arrived damaged and in very poor condition. Luckily the parts that fell out were in my yard and I found them. |

Excellent drill press |

Initially, my first drill press was delivered and was handled poorly by deliverer. Things were missing. However, Jas-store, sent me another one and it arrived perfectly. Once set up, nice instructions really helped, this drill press is perfect. I have not come across the negatives other customers have left. Jas-store, really takes care of its customers!!!! Superior service!!! |

Not Happy with this Machine (boat anchor) |
|
I was a toolmaker for 25 years and have used alot of pro drill presses. I bought the dp350 new about 3 years ago for my home wood shop. I was impressed with its build and wanted a small varible speed drill press, I thought this would be perfect. All my machines are JET except for this one drill press and a Delta planer. The planer is great this drill press is JUNK. Over the years I don't think my dp350 has more than a few hours total on it. It was always noisy stiff and vibrated too much no matter how I tried to adjust it and dampened the way I have it mounted to a table. 3 weeks ago it really started to make noise and vibrate and then the on-off switch started to smoke. I emailed Delta and did what they suggested. When that wasn't the problem I loaded it into my truck and drove to the repair center as Delta suggested. I just got the call from them $155.00 to fix it. Needs a new Quill and switch and a few other things. I'd like to dump it in the river and buy something else, but I'm hoping my $155.00 will now give me the drill pres I thought I was buying 3 years ago. It never was right and I'm going to let Delta know how I feel after I finish writing this. I will write back if they tell me anything I should share with you. I am very disappointed with this drill press. Buyer beware!// Today I talked to Delta. I told them I know I have no warrenty left, but I just wanted them to know how crappy their dp350 is and how unhappy I am. They had a tech call the repair center I took it to and then the tech called me. He told me everything I already knew about the repair! He said they ordered the parts and he will check back to see how the repair center makes out....not to help with the $155.00 so far, but at least he's trying to make some kind of effort. It kills me to pay this repair, heck I could buy a new one all over again for about $40.00 more, but then I'd have 2 boat anchors instead of one. I'll give a final report here when it's all over. Mean while if your buying a drill press buy a JET. FINAL UPDATE: I picked it up yesterday total bill for estimate and repair $146.00. Needed a new pulley,new switch,new belt and a new quill. Repairman did a good job, no problem with the service center. I think it's better than when it was new, but it should be considering the amount of hours I used it. Anyway nothing more from Delta in the way of satisfaction. Just think twice before you buy one. |
