Default Cheap lathes any good?

These "cheap" lathes you look at in the flyers at a nice reduced price and
say "hey I'd like to try that" and you do and it becomes a valued part of
your life.

How many people would never ever turn a piece of wood if these lathes
started at $2000-$3000-$5000....

I turn as a hobby and get great enjoyment out of my "Canadian Tire" lathe.
Of course, I'd love to have a nice expensive lathe....but I can't afford it.

I still have the 15" Craftsman. It is my main lathe and I am very happy
with it.
