I have one of those. Given the choice I would swap it for the Smithy.

The Sieg lathe bed/saddle is a horrible milling table, and the column
twists torsionally. I can slap it and it goes "boing"

Removing the chuck is no big deal, I have to do it half the time with
mine or I can't home with the milling vice attached. And I swap
between 3-jaw and 4-jaw all the time.
