Those who have Workmates will tell you they won't part with them. It's an indispensable extra pair of hands in the shop, a spare work surface when the workbench is too cluttered, a stand for benchtop tools, extra clamping surface and a hundred other uses. The tough steel X-shaped frame makes this model sturdy yet lightweight at just 15 pounds, a great improvement over the older versions, yet sacrificing nothing in terms of stability and strength. The jaws open at the turn of the handcranks and can be angled for odd-shaped gripping or clamping. Bench dogs hang onto your workpiece for you, offering up to 10-3/4 inches of clamp space. It folds nearly flat, taking up virtually no space at all. No shop, home or professional, should be without one of these.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

 Great portable stand November 13, 2008
I have used this stand for about a year on many jobsites in a variety of ways e.g. clamping,miter stand, table saw stand, etc. If you looking for light weight stand that gives solid performance.

 Complete junk July 24, 2008

Very flimsy, holes drilled in the wrong places, and most of the sheet metal is bent. Just total junk. Even the holes in the top aren't drilled all the way through. Don't waste your money.
Good product depending on your needs July 14, 2008
This may not be the best, most equipped or heaviest workmate on the market, but depending on your actual needs, this could be the best one for you. I looked at all the workmate benches, but figured for my basic needs, this one would do. After using it quite a lot, for about $20, I am going to buy another one to use them as saw horses or for working with long product. This is a solid bench that folds very flat, taking up very little space. It comes with four of the orange pegs and the vise is grooved for holding pipe under 2". For an active DIY guy, this one does the job for me, and when I am done, I will be able to hang both on the same set of wall pegs. The only con for me, is that you have to watch your fingers carefully when folding this unit flat.
 Doen't work as a steady table April 3, 2008
I bought this item and found the set up to be ok until they tell you to hammer in metal pieces to hold the handles in. There is no easy angle to hit them in and it seemed to take forever to get them in while trying to not damage the wood parts. After deciding to return the item I could not fit the item back in the box because I could not get the handles off again.
The main problem was that it does not work as a table, just as a vice. The problem is that there is about 1-2 cm left in between the handles and the edge of the table. This means that the movable part of the table jiggles. So if one puts a clamp on the movable side of the table to hold a piece of wood steady, it will jiggle too. A good part of the reason why I bought it was to use it with a circular saw, but if the wood I am clamping down jiggles, there isn't going to be much precision in my cuts. I returned it and got a Stanley workbench instead. It does not jiggle at all. And yes, I did screw all screws and bolts in very tightly. It is a flaw in design.
