This is an attractive workbench; and overall I'm happy with the purchase. POSITIVES: VERY attractive. The vice is a great addition -- and very solid. The pegs and brace/holes on top are a cool feature, and the main surface of the workbench is extremely durable. The wood most of the bench is made of is good quality, and perfect for driving wood screws into, without having to drill starter holes (still -- drilling is always the safer bet). The support surface near the bottom of the workbench is laminate/pressboard, but a couple (14" I think) strips of 1 x 2 added beneath, and that'll be a solid surface for you. One minor, and one major negative: MINOR: the manual. What few images there are, are blurry and out-of-focused B&W photos, often too close, or not centered on the part(s) being assembled. You may have to backtrack a couple steps, but overall the schematic on the manual's last page is your best bet. MAJOR: the drawers' guide rails. The drawers themselves are solid, but the guide rails are extremely flimsy. You can adjust the glide of the drawers after they're installed (this step is in the book as well), but the rails look, and feel, like they were designed for use on a small, more delicate piece of furniture. I'm overall happy with the purchase, but am thinking a little more research and I might have found something with better drawers.Read full review

I was surprised in the quality of this work bench, made in China. I think the hardwood is Western Red Alder. Everything fits together nice and tight, I did also use wood glue on all the joints for added strength, but it probably isn't necessary.

I'm so glad to have found this work bench at a great price. It is solid hardwood with steel hardware so it is tough and will stand up to your toughest project and the test of time. Even the drawer backs and bottoms are hardwood so store the heavy stuff if you like they won't collapse. Setup took awhile and it would have been easier with two people but once I got it built It was literally the most solid furniture in my apartment. It looks great in the corner of my modest apartment, not out of place at all and if it did all I'd have to do is paint it. I think this is a great value and if I had more space I'd buy another.

Shop around for the best deal on this bench. I ended up finding it for $149 shipped. Quality is surprisingly good. Instructions were easy to follow. Took me and a friend less than 30minutes to assemble. Overall very pleased
