First I did not buy the one from HF, it was out of stock at the time I wanted it. I did alot of talking to the person when I called to order it and got tech person or such.
Seems it did not come with a vice, was metric table, they did not even sell a vice for it, etc...  What info I got was not that good.

I bought mine then from Grizzly. I do like it very well, though it's the only one I ever had so I have nothing to compare it too. The one I got came with vice, follower rest, steady rest, vice, etc... a few things I think that are well worth some money to have. I think those items were not included at HF for theirs, not certain.

The grizzly model did cost me about $200 more I think, I drove up to springfield to pick mine up. They made changes to the model since the catalog was printed or website updated, changes are for the better. I saw the older model in the showroom I geuss. It only had like a 6' or so cross travel, kinda dumb for a 16" lathe, mine has the full cross travel. Very important as that's where you run your cutter bit in and out, center  to outer radious. Not to easy to face turn a 16" disk if you only have 6" travel or less. Also makes a big diffence in how far you can mill an item.
 I like mine alot, and would probably buy another I think if I were to do it again.

Oops, got to run pick kid up from game. I was going to look up the model number I bought, but no time now. It was about $1,400 I think, so if your looking at grizzly.com they have several sizes as combo units and the one closest to that price is probably the one I have, 16" swing for lathe and 36" bed length.

nothing to lose
