Amazon.com Product Description
Here's a benchtop tool that packs the power of the big boys. With 6 inches from bit center to column, you can drill with ease into the center of a foot-wide board with a 3-1/4-inch stroke and a chuck jaw capacity of 1/2 inch. The cast-iron table tilts left and right to 90 degrees with a positive stop at 0, and offers variable-speed control at the turn of a dial. Changing speeds is as simple as turning the knob, allowing you to drill at 500 rpm up to 3,100 rpm. Have some repetitive drilling to do? The adjustable-position locking depth stop takes the trouble out of the job. Rack-and-pinion table depth adjustment makes raising and lowering the table no work at all, and here's a nice bonus--a built-in gooseneck lamp. When you're done drilling, just pop out the removable safety switch to prevent unauthorized use. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste

 Short life span September 10, 2008
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.

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.

Initially, my first drill press was delivered and was handled poorly by deliverer. Things were missing. However, Amazon, 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. Amazon, really takes care of its customers!!!! Superior service!!!
 Not Happy with this Machine (boat anchor) July 17, 2007

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.
