If I had a Lee press, I would use it instead of throwing it in the trash. If I had a broken Lee press, I would replace it with an RCBS, Hornady, Lyman, Dillon, etc. unless Lee would replace it at no charge. IMHO, the Lee presses are a "starter press" and built for a price point.
I like their dies and have had excellent results and service when I needed a couple of replacement parts. Lee shipped them quickly and at no charge.
