Just assembled the HF work bench. Bought it over 6 months ago when on sale= . All of the parts are oak except for the drawer bottoms. With all the fa= steners tightened the bench is surprisingly sturdy. The drawer slides are = reasonable quality (4 drawers) and the bottoms are thick and sturdy. The b= uilt in vise is functional but obviously not the best. The only limitation= seems to be the 60" width. Wider would be nicer. My use will probably be= simply assembly and not heavy planing or sawing. All in all quite a bargain for $139 or less when on sale. (Better deal is = full price of $150 but use of 20% coupon). At my age it will last the rest= of my life. No connection to HF. =20
