The WEN 4212T Drill Press combines a powerful 5-amp induction motor with a smooth mechanical variable speed range from 530 to 3100 RPM, displayed on a digital readout for precision. Its 10-inch swing and 2-inch spindle travel accommodate a variety of projects, while the laser guide and adjustable beveling worktable ensure accuracy and versatility. Designed for durability and convenience, it includes onboard chuck key storage and a two-year warranty, making it the go-to benchtop drill press for serious DIYers and professionals alike.

## Description

Remember when power tools were actually powerful? The WEN 12-Inch Variable Speed Drill Press powers through metal, wood, plastic and more, with the ability to drill up to a 1/2-inch hole through heavy-duty, 1-inch-thick cast iron. The mechanical variable speed allows you to dial in the exact RPM (from 530 to 3100) for your project with the simple turn of a lever while the digital LED readout displays the current speed. The powerful induction motor features ball bearings for an extended life and balanced performance. The 1/2-inch chuck with JT33 spindle taper gives you versatility with a variety of bits, with on-board chuck key storage for easy organization. The 8 by 7.5-inch cast-iron worktable bevels 45° left and right for those tricky operations. The X-pattern of the Class IIIA 2.5mW laser shows your drill’s center points, saving on guesswork and sparing expensive materials. The 8 by 12.5-inch cast iron base features predrilled holes for easy mounting to the benchtop or work surface of your choice. And because it’s a WEN product, your drill press comes backed by a two-year warranty, a friendly customer support line, and a stocked inventory of replacement parts. Remember when you could drill with laser precision? Remember WEN.

Review: It's just what I need for weekend warrior stuff . . . - PRO: 1. Affordable. 2. Works as advertised and as shown in the pictures, (Look at the pictures). 3. Fast, like really, really, really, fast. I crank it down for average use. 4. Get for countertop height use. 5. Comes complete. CON: 1. The laser is a bit gimmicky. 2. The base is just barely large enough to keep this from falling over. 3. Battery compartment for laser is hard to reach and I may wire a new battery box in another location. 4. Instruction manual is in black and white, and the pictures are useless for the most part, black lines on black image. lolz. OTHER: 1. White lithium grease is your friend. 2. Grease everything, I mean, every screw, thread, shank, bolt, etc. you will thank me later. 3. BUY if you want an affordable benchtop drill press, that works, and is SUPER FAST. 4. DON'T BUY if you are expecting a top of the line drill press, if that is what you are looking for, spend more money.
Review: Another WEN for the win! - I recently upgraded from an 8" drill press to this 10" drill press. The reason for the upgrade was that my 8" drill press was just woefully underpowered and the depth gauge had broken off (it was never very good anyway). I already own a Wen thickness planer and bandsaw and have been very pleased with them both. That combined with the price and features made this a no brainer for me. Some of the features that I love about this drill press are the laser guide and the variable speed function. With my old drill press, I had to change the belt to different pulleys. With this one, it has a lever on the side that you simply push or pull to to adjust the speed. Inside the housing are 2 pulleys that will open or close to change the diameter of the pulley similar to a CVT transmission on a car. A digital readout on the front of the drill press lets you know the RPMs. It does take a couple of seconds for the readout to catchup to the actual RPMs but, Thats no big deal to me. The laser guides (at least on mine) were dead on accurate. They are pretty bright as well and have saved me lots of time. As several other reviewers have mentioned, they are battery powered (2 double AA) and it is easy to forget to turn the switch off. Fortunately, the battery compartment is easy to access and you only have to remove a couple of screws. The depth gauge on this drill press is a lot more robust than my old one also. With this one you turn the dial to the desired stop and tighten a bolt. That's it. No nuts to fool around with and no flimsy plastic that you have to worry about breaking. The table on this drill press is nice and flat and easily adjusted with a turn of the crank handle. The arbor was nice an snug with no side to side play which means no drift when the drill bit hits the surface to be drilled. The handles all screw in and have a flat spot so that you can get them nice and snug. Overall, a well constructed drill press. I can say this with confidence for 2 reasons. 1. I recently had to drill over 100 holes that were 2 1/4" in diameter. This drill press handled them without the slightest hiccup. After running continuously for over 2 hours, the motor was not hot and the drill press was still just spinning away. 2. While moving another work cabinet the other day, the drill press fell off and landed on the floor from a hight of about 3 feet. The belt and pulley housing got a big dent in it but, I picked it up, checked all the handles, and turned it on, and it ran fine. I was sure that something was broken but, much to my relief, everything is working fine and now it has a little "character."

## Questions & Answers

**Q: When it advertizes 10 inch what is that referring to?**
A: The 10 inches refers to the maximum distance between the adjustable table and the fully deployed drill chuck.  In essence it is the maximum height or width of a piece of material that can be drilled on this machine.  Drilling into something more than 10 inches is rare in my experience.

**Q: whats the difference between the two 10inch wen presses: 4212 and 4210?**
A: The 4212 is slightly larger and heavier. It is a 2/3 HP vs 1/3 HP. It is a variable speed where the 4210 has 5 set speeds.

**Q: Does the head swing out to the side like the 4210?**
A: The head is stationary but the base plate…if that’s the right name…swings out and is height adjustable.

**Q: does this have a work light built in?**
A: It has a two point laser light that shows exactly where the bit will center.  It is battery powered and has a switch, but there is no work light.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pretty good for the price.
*by N***N on December 14, 2025*

Not bad but does need some upgrades. A work light would be nice and I added a keyless chuck. Could be more quiet, it’s fairly noisy. Definitely not top quality but will work fine for hobbies and small jobs.
