The Einhell TC-BD 500 column drill allows for precise drilling of holes in workpieces made of wood or metal. With an output power of 500 W and 9 speed settings suitable for all materials, it forms the basis for precision drilling tasks. For quick and accurate results, there is a depth guide. The maximum drilling depth is 50 mm.
It features a sturdy geared chuck that can accommodate the most common drill sizes. The ball-bearing drilling spindle results in long-lasting and easy use. For versatility, this column drill comes with an incredibly adjustable drilling table height.
It is also possible to rotate and tilt the drilling table. A welcome feature for applying pressure is the three-arm rubber handle.
For safety during use, there is a retractable chip guard and the On/Off switch with zero-voltage release function prevents the machine from restarting unintentionally after a power outage.

Overall, I found it very functional and it makes things easier for you. Good as a Drill for a small workshop.
On the negative side: It arrived without the two Allen tightening screws that secure the column. I contacted the store and our communication was immediate, and they suggested replacing them. Of course, I went to a nearby store in my area and bought two screws based on the specifications they gave me... For two small screws, it wasn't a problem, and I thank them for their prompt response.
Another negative I found is that the cover for the speeds does not fit flush with the machine. The case for the tightening key of the chuck broke immediately because it is too narrow for the millimeters..!
Functionally, however, I will say everything is okay.
I don't think, though, that it is a machine worth the price that the company Einhell is asking.
So, 3 stars.
