Hi Lol999, i got the Vogvigo from Amazon and i'm pleased with it so far. The frame is Bakelite and aluminium and is totally rigid and square, assembly is easy (i did it in 2 hours while drunk and tired!), there's a video of a guy on YT who did it in 48 minutes.
I don't have the laser head so can only comment on miling. It engraves copper easily (you can even mill your own PCBs with it) and you can even mill soft aluminium with but i haven't tried brass.
The software that comes with it sets up easily, it also comes with decent docs, drivers and assembly videos.
The only problem i've had with it so far is that there is no connectivity on the A5 pin pair, which is where you're supposed to connect a z-probe, so i emailed the seller about that this morning.
The chuck can only take 3.175mm shaft diameter tools AFAIK, i couldn't get a 4mm shaft in there and didn't want to push it too hard.
If you have any questions feel free to ask.
Cheers, Gary.
