Review: Vevor 7x16 800W lathe - Received unscathed, motor and display worked perfectly out of the box. The spindle\motor area is different from other 7x ** lathes, motor is built into the spindle no drive belt to worry about. The cross slide and ways are the same as the others meaning it needs cleaning and major adjustments, I think it is well worth the money with some tinkering and adjusting it will be a great addition to your shop Review: I wasn't expecting much, but I was expecting it to at least run and it couldn't even do that. - Mine came broken out of the box. Turned it on and the fuse immediately blew. Contacted their support, and they sent a new "head box", which was the spindle+housing assembly (which contained the motor coils), for me to replace by myself. After replacing it the control board popped and smoked. They are sending a replacement board as of a few days ago, which will take another couple of weeks to get here. I've had this for almost a month and it's still doesn't work. Btw, they say that the spindle is MT4, but it's not. The max diameter of MT4 is supposed to be 1.2310", the minimum diameter of the spindle bore is listed as 32mm (1.260"). I'm not sure what the actual bore size is. They also don't mention that it can't do some threads within the range they list with the provided gears, it's buried somewhere in the manual *after* you get it. ## Features - Direct Drive Motor: The mini metal lathe machine adopts a direct drive motor, no belt drive, and no need to replace the belt. 800W brushless motor that provides more power and avoids the need for brush replacements, saving time and effort. - Built to Last: The mini metal lathe is built to last with high-quality HT200 cast iron. They come equipped with wear-resistant and strong metal gears and aluminum alloy handwheels, ensuring a longer service life. - Continuously Variable: Features a spindle that can turn in both forward and reverse directions with 150-2500 RPM continuously variable speed range. It also has intelligent electric speed controls and a digital display, allowing for convenient data reading. - Widely Used: 7'' x 16'' metal lathe machine can be used for processing precision parts and models. A wide range of turning pitches can create 19 kinds of threads, 9 kinds of the metric system (0.5-3 mm), and 10 kinds of the imperial system (10-44 TPI). - Security Comes First: Our power metal lathes have multiple security features in case of emergency, ensuring operator security. These include an emergency stop switch, overload protection, chuck cover power off switch, and a main control panel security switch. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0DLNK42SM | | ASIN | B0DLNK42SM | | Batteries Required? | No | | Best Sellers Rank | #184,654 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #21 in Power Lathes | | Customer Reviews | 2.9 2.9 out of 5 stars (13) | | Customer reviews | 2.9 2.9 out of 5 stars (13) | | Date First Available | 14 November 2024 | | Date First Available | 14 November 2024 | | Included components | 1 x Oil Pan | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Item Weight | 56 Kilograms | | Item model number | MX-S716G | | Item model number | MX-S716G | | Manufacturer | VEVOR | | Manufacturer | VEVOR | | Package Dimensions | 94 x 51.5 x 49 cm; 56.05 kg | | Package Dimensions | 94 x 51.5 x 49 cm; 56.05 kg | | Part number | MX-S716G | | Power source type | ac_dc | | Size | 7" x 16" | ## Images ![VEVOR 7'' x 16'' Metal Lathe Machine, 800W Precision Benchtop Power Metal Lathe, 150-2500 RPM Continuously Variable Speed, with 3.9'' 3-jaw Metal Chuck Come with Tool Box - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71B16j7eo2L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Vevor 7x16 800W lathe *by T***Y on 24 April 2025* Received unscathed, motor and display worked perfectly out of the box.

Also WIRING ISSUES. *by D***E on 7 May 2026* Good value for the money, but requires disassembly to polish, debur, and grease the gibs, and properly tension the lead screw. Also the thrust bearings are ungreased garbage. I replaced them with new ones. Also I advise that you open the electrical cabinet and ensure that the chassis grounding wire is PROPERLY ATTACHED, because mine was NOT. The grounding wire had a terminal crimp on it, but was just rattling around inside, ready to wreak havoc on whatever circuitry it could touch.
