The Rong Fu RF-45 or the PM-45 (Basically the same thing. Might be some minor fit/finish differences. Probably made in the same factory) are ~3x more, but more than 3x more machine. You can actually do some real work on them and not hate life the entire time.

I'll second the RF-45. There are some knockoffs out there with poor castings but genuine Rong-Fu's are quality machines for the price and size. I've set up two and both continue to run well and treat their novices users well.
I think they're also super popular with the CNC conversion crowd. I'm not sure that that conversion really makes a lot of sense but it does mean there are a lot of folks out there who know the machine inside and out.
