I just upgraded from my old JET 1640 lathe to this JET 1840 lathe. They have made some improvements, but it basically works very much like my old 1640. I like everything about it.

Price wise this one seemed to be around middle range. It’s heavy and sturdy. Being 220 v adds power and smoothness. To me the most noticeable quality is the increased smoothness with large pieces of not so round or even pieces. Has an RPM indicator and that’s it, not a lot of complicated electronics to break. I’ll give it a five for tech support because I read that it’s very good.

After much deliberation and comparison shopping, I landed on the Jet 1840. I chose it over other lathes in the same size/price range due to several factors that met my personal preferences/needs, as well as being greatly swayed in the end by the 5 yr warranty. Had it for over a month now, no regrets. Upgraded from a Nova Comet II, my 1st lathe. Wanted greater capacity/swing and more HP. Great machine I have a hard time imagining myself outgrowing.Overall, very happy with the 1840. I was a little disappointed in the finish/quality control on some cosmetic aspects. There was a significant amount of overspray from the white paint onto underside of bedways, etc, and the JET decal on front of lathe was misaligned where it stuck up above the bed a small amount. Would have interfered with banjo/tailstock if I hadn't trimmed with knife. Sandpaper and elbow grease took care of the overspray. Small cosmetic defects/oversights that don't affect the operation of the lathe, just somewhat disappointing for a machine close to $4000 after tax.

I have not used it much yet, however I have assembled it. It runs very smoothly and quietly. I ordered thru Acme Tool and it was shipped by Estes. Delivery was on time with no damage. This is a very heavy item and I would suggest at least 2 people to assemble and stand up. No unexpected hassles and it looks and sounds great. Very happy
