We have Harbor Freight Bender, it's ok but leaves crimps in the bend. Works for off road truck & plenty of braces. We don't go fast so it'll be ok for us. The press HF has is JUNK, my son was using one at a former job & the plate broke, knocked his safety glasses off, & he needed stitches. Boss said he didn't use it right, saw another one 2 weeks later same press same broken plate. Worker said it almost took his head off. Our school uses a different press but we have a plexiglass shield on it, they didn't.
