Tools and Hardware Reviews of Black & Decker WM125 Workmate 125 350-Pound Capacity Portable Work Bench

Customer Review: Ain't what it used to be???
Summary: 3 Stars

It seems the reviewers who have had this work beanch for years love it. The disappointed customers are those of us who purchased it recently. I bought two recently at a sale plus rebate that brought the price down to $10 each, primarily to use as saw horses. They seem to be ok for that purpose, but I was very disappointed with the quality.

When I went to assemble the first one, it was excruciatingly slow because, although the process is not complicated, the instructions are poorly written and printed in type so small as to be unreadable even with a magnifying glass. I finally had to find the tech doc at B & D's website, enlarge it and print it to begin to decipher it.

Well, I figure the second one would be a piece of cake. Wrong! The parts were so poorly matched and out of alignment that I spent hours putting two screws in place, and finally had to force the pieces into alignment with c-clamps and a hammer. Absurd.

Finally, with libertal application of WD40 I have two folding saw horses that are probable woth $10 each, but certainly not full reatil.

I don't think I have to tell you where it was made. Deosn't anyone in the Free World make stuff anymore?

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
