I have used a Lee Hand Press to load about 750 rounds of .45ACP so far. I also just loaded my first 50 rounds of .38SPL on it as well. I highly recommend it for someone with limited space. I started with just the Lee Carbide Speed Die, but it lacks adjustability in important areas. I still use it, but I needed to get a Lee Factory Crimp Die for my loads to feed consistently. Now that I have an FCD, it works great.

I would also suggest the Lee Perfect Powder Measure. It's dirt cheap, and I have mine mounted on a 2x4 that I clamp to the coffee table. Works great, very consistent even with charges as small as 3.9grs. I found that the dipper that came with my dies was not the right size for the load I wanted to use, and the powder measure greatly increased my productivity.
