I retired my Lee round hand primer and moved up (I thought) to the new square one. I would highly recommend no one purchase the square one and went back to the round one. Then I decided I was going to go bench mounted RCBS and picked one up at Grafs.
Assembled and mounted its kind of embarrassingly easy to prime a lot of brass very quickly. The cost is a bit steep but I figure it will last a long time and still be a reliable piece of equipment.
Here is the old one-from the mid-1980's
The square one has the disturbing habit of jamming two primers into the same space, flipping them wrong side up, and requiring repeated disassembly.
and the new one assembled but not bolted down
