I received my toolbox/workbench and am excited about getting it together. I ordered this item to get myself organized and garage cleaned up. As soon as I opened the box the first thing I noticed is the big dents from the forklift that picked it up at the warehouse. Then another dent where someone stepped on the box. The metal seems flimsy when your unwrapping everything but once its together its pretty sturdy. Overall for the price its great. I recommend using a cordless drill with a Philips end on it to put this together since it has a tone of screws. 3 stars because its packed so tight in the box the sheet metal is easily bent out of shape and its toooooo much to try and get it back in the box to return.

This bench has lots of storage and is fairly well built but a major problem in the drawer design makes it very difficult to operate. The drawer slides have plastic bumpers in the rear that are supposed to serve as a friction lock to prevent unwanted opening of the drawers. This is a safety feature so that too many drawers don't open accidentally such as when moving the bench and tip it over. The problem is that the bumpers are made to hold way too tight and they actually prevent the drawers from closing easily or opening easily. You need a lot of force to open and close - so much so that the drawer fronts bend. When trying to pull the drawers open such force is required that when they do open suddenly all the contents shift. I have been working with the manufacturer but so far they have been unhelpful except to suggest some grease. I tried grease but it does not fix the problem. So far it appears the manufacturer does not want to rectify the problem.

When I knew I was going to remodel my kitchen, I started looking at mobile kitchen islands and the standard all wood ones either didn't have the features I wanted (not enough drawers) or were too expensive (over $600). I also wanted to use it as a temporary kitchen during remodeling. Yes, it took 2 people about 3 hours to put it together, but it is quite sturdy. I put plates, bowls and serving dishes in the larger left hand drawers and utensils in the smaller right hand drawers. Even after the remodel I prefer keeping everything in it. Everything is very organized, it is an OCD dream, : drawer 1) silverware 2) knives 3) spatulas and wooden spoons 4) wisks and tongs 5) flat graters, etc. 6-8) odds & ends and house tools. I can also roll it over to the dish washer when I unload it; very convenient.

You won't find a nicer or better built product for the money. You should know that it is in fact Stainless Steel (430 stainless steel) but that does not mean it will not stain or corrode. You can Wiki it, but there are different ratings for Stainless steel and their uses. I had a problem with the door corroding after a year, and Woody at the manufactures web site was very helpful and provided a replacement. The store manager had suggested using auto wax on the stainless surfaces and that might be a good idea although he was incorrect saying it was not "really stainless." Mine was in a normal Minnesota garage, relatively dry except for humidity.

I, like many other customers, was somewhat skeptical about the quality, craftsmanship and durability of the Seville HD 12 Drawer Rolling Workbench. Folks, you won't be making any mistakes with this purchase. The SOLID wodden top is very beautiful. The quality of construction is excellent and the durability of materials are outstanding. ALL the screw holes lined up correctly. The assembly directions are straight forward and easy to understand. Seville even supplied the tools for assembly. However, you'll want to be patient; there's many/many screws but at least there are enough of them. I have now converted this "Workbench" into my reloading center for all my ammunition reloading projects. It has plenty of storage space, the drawer guides are all top-notch and the locking feature on the middle door is an excellent place for my storing of gun powder. If you want a GREAT cabinet/storage/work area, this is it. Buy it. You won't be disappointed.

This works great for our shop, we have two. Middle section fits all the specialty tools in cases perfectly. Save a lot of money compared to other name brands. It may not work well for "diesel mechanic" but all other tools works great, got both of ours filled full.

Bought this for my daycare so that I could have a taller counter for us to work on. This took 2 days for me to assemble as I was the only one doing this while doing daycare. Everything is sturdy and well put together. I love all the drawers as I have my silverware, cooking utensils, bibs, towels, washcloths, bowls/pots and pans in them with room to spare. Also love the fact it has wheels to move for cleaning under or for changing the serving area. Great product and the best price I have found it for!

This thing is heavy and has lots of parts! You can, however, do most of the assembly yourself. I sorted the parts one day and assembled it in about 2-3 hours the next. It is very heavy so you have to have someone help you upright it then finish it up alone. I put it together for my husband when he was out of town. I love the top--I worry that it will get damaged in his shop, which it will but that is what it is for! My box was missing a small drawer front. I called the number and got a new one in less than a week. I could see using this in a craft room or kitchen. It is great for the low price

This work bench is a great value for the money. If you bought something that was of the same features/quality elsewhere, you would pay more than 2X as much. Takes time to assemble, but if you are handy, its not a problem. Great woodblock top - solid and finished well. They even have online video instructions for one or two of the assembly areas that are more difficult (how to assemble doors - watch it as the instructions are DIFFERENT than the written version, and they work, whereas the written version way is more problematic). Some issues when aligning if screws and bolts are tightened prematurely, but they can be corrected. Machining is done well. Some issues with screws in the door assembly for back end of face plate, but if you align before screwing in it should not be a problem. Overall, a very good workbench. Some have stated concern about not having four wheels that have a flex wheel vs. the 2 that are fixed now. I wont be moving the bench that often for it to be an issue, and then, you just need to move from the sides with the adjustable wheels. A good buy. If I ever need another workbench; I'd definitely consider this workbench again!

I looked at this workbench, read all the reviews and thought long and hard on this purchase. I sold my Gladiator setup to purchase this and love this even more! The quality is just as good as all the rest of the garage systems I have seen out there. I believe the negative reviews are people not knowing there is really no difference between this and comparable systems at a better cost. If you put a gladiator system together you would find they are just as thin metal and about the same build. Don't get me wrong, nothing wrong with what I had but this system fits my needs. Directions and packaging are top shelf. I put the cabinet together in a little under an hour, the drawers are what take some time. Just take your time, read the directions and you will love this!! I can see where this workbench could sell for $800 + if assembled, rather have the extra money in my pocket!
