Bench Top Lathes???

Are the small 7-10" swing foreign-made bench top lathes any good for small hobby-type turning of bushings, spacers, etc.?

Do any of you guys have one of these small bench top lathes? How do you like them? Can you explain a little about their limitations?

Thanks!

No but i guess depends on what your doing with it, the youtube reviews I watch say the ok with softer metal.
Been looking at diy lathes on youtube I want to try to build once my garage is built.
