Bought as a workbench to work on my rifles & pistols. Works great, very sturdy. I chose not to mount my 5" bench vise, it would take up too much space and didn't want to drill into the butcher block (which is nice quality bench top). I would definitely recommend

These benches are extremely well made and worth every penny. The maple top is tough, rigid and attractive. The 2 draws are mounted on bearing slides and installed easily. Having the work light come with the unit was very nice. It also includes a power strip and hangers for the peg board. All in all this is a complete workbench system with no additional purchases required to put it to work. Easy to follow instructions and about 30 minutes of time and you will have a great work area. It also comes with leveling legs so if your floor isn't straight, no worries.

Our son picked this workbench for a desk. It works perfect with a well lit work area, power strip for electronics, sturdy surface, a shelf and convenient drawers. Afterwards, it will be used for a workbench, as intended. We are very happy with the quality (now my husband wants one too). Assembly was simple and fairly quick. In shopping for desks and workbenches, this is a well made product, a great buy and has served the purpose well. Our local SAMS Club had the desk in store but only in light grey and he wanted dark grey (looks black) so we ordered online. Easy transaction with timely shipping/delivery.

Great bench....Easy to assemble. My 4 Y.O. and I finished in about an hour and a half. The instructions were clear and all of the pieces labeled. Comes wrapped well so there shouldn't be any damage. The price seems to keep going down, so I suggest that you pick one up...! :-)

This bench is perfect for use in the Hobby Room, as well as for a small workbench for the shop. This bench far exceeds my quality expectations, both in materials and looks. While the shipping carton weighs in a a solid 120lbs, because it is so expertly packed, with plenty of styrofoam padding, and each part is in a plastic bag to help prevent scratches, though being so nicely powder coated, I can't imagine it getting scratched, it is easily opened so you can tote the parts individually if needed. The parts are all labeled with both the part name, and any directional info needed for assembly. The directions are easy to follow, and the parts fit together perfectly, it even comes with a bag of one each of the hardware. The bags that contain the nuts and bolts, as well as anything else needed, are clearly marked. Oh, it even comes with a magnetic Philips screwdriver, and a wrench with an open end as well as a box end, and they are the ONLY tools I used for assembly. While it may be nice to have someone help with the assembly, I was able to put it together entirely on my own, in about an hour or so. The work surface is made of real wood that is laminated to form a butcher block like 1 1/2" thick, nicely varnished work surface. The peg board is made of steel, not the brown junk sold at the big box home improvement centers, and it comes with a nice assortment of hooks. While this may not hold up to having an engine or transmission dropped on it, it is perfect for light to medium duty shop work, as well as for using in your home. Do not hesitate purchasing this bench, you will not be disappointed. I honestly see this bench lasting for my lifetime, and beyond.

I purchased this shop bench a while back and finally decided to put it together. I could not believe how thorough the directions were. The carton even contained a screw driver and a wrench. I am very pleased with the quality and look forward to years of use.

I couldn’t be happier with the QUALITY and THOUGHT that went into this work bench. The peg board, overhead light and power strip were a big PLUS. They even provide you with various hooks for the peg board and mats for the drawer and shelf. It took me about 2-3 hours to assembly the bench and though it comes with a wrench and screwdriver, I opted to use my cordless screwdriver. One NOTE: While putting the various sections together, the instructions CAUTIONS you to keep the screws loose until everything is fitted together, then tighten. This is very good advice!! As stated previously, I couldn’t be happier with the bench.

It took several hours to assemble, but the bench is well built and the instructions were very clear. Every piece was labeled, with directions on where the front or top was. It was easy to level in my uneven garage, and makes a great 4' x 2' work area. When I saw it at Sam's, I made a note to buy it when it was under $150. When it was on a black Friday sale, I bought it, used the pick it up at the Club option, and that went flawlessly.

Absolutely the best workbench I have ever had. Sturdy construction, heavy enough for tough jobs. Comes complete with peg board tool holders, right down to the foam drawer pads to lay tools on. Light is bright enough for most jobs. Assembly took about 1.5 hours with help. Top kudos to the manufacturer!

Very well thought out and designed. Assembly was easy even without help, and took under two hours when done at a leisurely pace. The tabletop of the bench is block and finished very nicely. It's honestly nicer than my kitchen table. I almost felt bad drilling holes in it to mount a vise. Everything goes together and locks together very well, and the instructions are logically laid out. Orientation stickers on most parts were also welcome, as they eliminated the need to spend as much time studying the assembly diagrams to determine proper placement of the parts. They even include shelf liner pre-cut to fit the drawers. It's a silly little thing to be impressed by, but it shows how much they paid attention to the details when they put this kit together. Just remember to assemble most things from 'finger tight' to slightly loose initially until you get the alignment set, then tighten everything down. As long as you do that everything goes together easily and self squares pretty well.
