My teams has this, and it's been a bit of a pain. The press brake works nicely, but the shear and the roller are another story. The rollers aren't the easiest to adjust to produce the correct bend, and it's not the greatest construction. The shear can work, but it's awful hard to cut anything, and we were able to crack the bottom table cutting some sheet metal.
So, overall, I don't know if I'd recommend it. It works and it's rather cheap for all the machines it combines, but I'm sure there are other options that could work better.
