Pros & Cons
Pros
Machine runs quietly, smoothly, doesn't get hot. Plenty of power and no stalling. Won't slow down much when leaning on it.
Very well made solid unit. Finish of buffer is excellent. Highly recommend for the home shop.
A bit snug is always better that sloppy with buffers and grinders. It comes with spacers for narrow width wheels. The shafts have flats for a wrench when removing arbor nuts.

A couple other companies make 1hp lowspeed models but price is significantly more

A good deal compared to prices of similar long shaft low speed machines

So a lot of folks seem to be concerned about the 1116 arbor on this machine some have even claimed to have been so upset about it that they returned it
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Its true that 1116 is printed on the sticker but even the rikon website lists the shaft diameter at 58 15
