I had written my impression of Lee's Auto Bench Prime - their latest one - twice. When it first came out and one year later, after they made some improvements.
Lee’s Auto Bench Prime should never have hit the market before working out some of the problems. The biggest was the priming tray. It was plagued by misfeeds and jams. I never wrote them asking if they had received complaints, but there is no doubt that they got an earful from reloaders. Hopefully, they re-engineered the tray. It was a big pile of bad. My understanding is that they have since fixed the problems, but I have moved on.
This was one of those times when Lee disappointed me. I have no proof of this, but I felt they released the Auto Bench Prime prematurely and let consumers test it and report their complaints. They addressed those complaints and released an updated version. I bought the updated version and it does work. They fixed the tray and feed ramp.
