Anyone used one?
Under $100 on TM even a Lee Aliminium O press is dearer!
And this is made of steel. I reckon a good beginners press or second press for decapping etc

There is some play in the ram ....... might help with self centering which is all the rage on the forster coax press.
Takes standard die thread which is cast into the press so there is no chance to utilise "quick change" inserts, such as Hornady and Lee.
I would put it on a level with the lee cast alloy press. And at $87 landed to your door, it sits at a good price point for those wanting a dedicated depriming press, or wanting to get into reloading on a budget.
Some quick observations from just mounting it with a couple of F clamps onto a bench.
No onboard priming station. Deprimed primers run out through a hole in the side of the ram, so need some way to catch them.
The clearance is pretty generous ( there is a 100mm gap from the top of the shell plate to the bottom of the die thread.
The operating lever can be off set for left or right.
Probably suited to small to medium calibers.
