I bought it to be able to press wheel bearings out of the struts or what ever it is called on my '81 Dasher.  Don't know what you call expensive but there are several tool places that sell cheap Chinese tools  that should be good enough for home use - I hope.

I used my HF press to do the front wheel bearings on my old '81:

I still use it several times a week mainly for bending metal with a bending brake.
