        unboxed once, never used in anger

        • bio on 04/10/2022 - 12:24

          I tend not to use power tools when I'm angry.

        • dreamscene on 04/10/2022 - 14:54

          Anger? You may have to reinforce the legs to make the bench more sturdy if you constantly work on it when angry. It's more designed as a 'sit back and admire your Ozito tools' bench.

      Agreed, no hammering or anything on this. Also MDF top cups very easily so need to flip it every few weeks or so depending on humidity.

      • ryang on 04/10/2022 - 08:59

        The reviews certainly paint a picture..

        Would a better top help (thicker MDF, solid timber, etc), or is it just a waste?

        • priceaintright on 04/10/2022 - 09:37

          I suspect it might actually make things worst given how flimsy the legs look

      • prodrome on 04/10/2022 - 10:54

        The sheer weight of both my Ozito tools were too much for this and practically split it half.

        Now to buy more Ozito tools to reinforce it.

        Interesting … my extremely smartphone autocorrected Ozito to Idiot

    • Franc-T on 04/10/2022 - 13:13

      I have one of these and its fine for my uses, for stuff like painting items or taking apart stuff - ie very light duty work - dont expect to do anything heavier whatsovever on it thats all.

      Not even slighly useful for a vice for example as the metal is really quite thin and if you try to drag it on the floor the legs bend. Its that weak.

      Overall, I wouldnt recommend for almost all use cases.

    Does anyone have recommendations for a good quality workbench that's reasonably priced? I was looking to spend about $500 and looking at a width of around 1500 to 1600mm. There's a few options around but just wanted to check if anyone here has good experiences you'd like to share.

    • gakko on 04/10/2022 - 08:58

      Consider building your own: https://www.finewoodworking.com/2009/09/16/still-dont-have-a…

      That being said, I'm also fully supportive of the lazy option.

      • TCM on 04/10/2022 - 09:25

        My skills in woodworking aren't that good so I'm definitely looking for an off the shelf product.

      • jamesorion on 04/10/2022 - 09:36
        +2

        I agree with this. When I was new to woodworking I designed and built a good-sized workbench with drawers and various storage compartments for probably around $150-200. The most expensive part of it was the heavy duty casters it sat on. The bench was far sturdier than any you'd find anywhere around the price point or even at a few times the cost.

      • sarinity on 04/10/2022 - 09:43

        I'm with TCM on this, I lack the skills (and a circular saw) and the time, keen for a good off the shelf option.

          I don't have skills and built my own anyway. Just googled for the simplest design possible. It kinda sucked but hey, still kinda cool. Used a hand saw, drill, and spanners only.

        • alcadive on 04/10/2022 - 11:45

          Buy the materials at Bunnings and get it all cut to size. Then you just have to assemble it.

          What do you want a workbench for, then? /s

          Jokes aside, it might be a good opportunity to hone your skills, and also add a circular saw to your toolbox.

    • Abaddon on 04/10/2022 - 09:52

      Workbench build is definitely on my list, I'm more looking for a well rounded tool storage solution. Drawers really, but even the cheap options seem expensive when you don't know if they are good.

      One thing is certain though. If I don't clean up the shed I won't have any tools to worry about (or a wife).

      I use an old but good quality study desk that's about 25 years old of about that size. Works perfectly and you could probably find one free or cheap on Gumtree. It's survived all sorts of hammering, many chemicals, has a vice and anvil bolted to it, and still in good shape.

      • ibzc on 04/10/2022 - 11:50

        I'm the same, use a very old 'teachers desk', it's absolutely perfect and the amount of abuse it's taken is unbelievable. Added some casters to make it easy to move around and see no point in upgrading any time soon. Perfect assembly table too, nice and big!

    • dufflover on 04/10/2022 - 11:47

      I followed Steve Ramsey's basic mobile workbench design as a complete newbie … (still am :P)
      Highly recommend that one.

      I didn't buy a big plywood sheet for the top and shelves - I used the top off some old folding table from hard rubbish lol.

      As far as ready to go kits, this one: https://www.bunnings.com.au/pinnacle-900-x-1800-x-600mm-xl-t…

      Reviews haven't changed for a long time.
      It's sturdy as hell, but a massive pain in the ass to put together and needs a bit of filing/hammering and you absolutely need an articulated screwdriver to get in the tough spots.

    Might actually work for me. I just need a place to hang a few tools and chargers as per OP description.. It can proudly sit next to my crappy MDF shelving from Stracto.

    This looks like it would be ideal for a 3D printer workbench.

  • TheFunkySalsa on 04/10/2022 - 10:25

    I bought one of these last time around. It's …. ok. I bought it for my son to work on his remote control cars. Was a beaaaatch to put together, largely because the pieces aren't cut just right, but it's fit for purpose. At $70 it's fine for light duty use.

  • jez22333 on 04/10/2022 - 10:41

    I bought this a few weeks ago and love it! I only had a small space available to install a workbench so it worked well for me. The instructions aren't very good but it was easier than I thought to installed. Definitely recommend a rubber mallet to build it!

  • ibzc on 04/10/2022 - 11:51

    Might be good as a potting bench to use for my garden now that spring is here.

      The MDF benchtop will cup in days from moisture. It might be usable if you replace it with marine grade plywood.

      • bdl on 04/10/2022 - 13:30

        it also smells like weetbix when first opened :|

      • ibzc on 04/10/2022 - 14:03

        Yep, was thinking that when it dies I'll replace it with an appropriate benchtop. As it will be in a greenhouse (high humidity), I don't expect it to last long! Thanks for the tip on marine grade ply, was wondering the best option to replace it with.

  • bobbieb on 04/10/2022 - 12:28

    I'm in the market for something like this in addition to some other garage storage bits.

    Can anyone suggest a good quality option that won't break the bank?

  • sassypants on 04/10/2022 - 13:14

    Got one of these in a deal a year ago for a small space in the garage. Very happy with it. There are many similar workbenches that cost more but don't come with the drawer, so that's good.
    You won't be building a house on the thing, but for a space to chuck your tools and store bits and pieces it's great. I use the bench mainly for gluing things, working on small projects, etc and it's perfect. If you're hammering something together or sawing some planks, you'd be using a sawhorse anyway.

    Agree with the above comments, you'd want a rubber mallet when you build this to make things easier.

  • zcube on 04/10/2022 - 14:25

    Can someone who owns one of these already tell me how high the bottom of the drawer is off the ground, was planning on putting a set of drawers I already have under it. Thanks in advance!

    • bdl on 04/10/2022 - 19:07

      735mm from bottom of drawer to ground, 460mm from bottom of drawer to top surface of bottom shelf.

      approx 810mm wide (inner measurement) and 490mm deep, too.

      You really need that bracing of bottom shelf because legs are so flimsy, however.

  • skysailz on 04/10/2022 - 16:07

    i got one of these for free from someone throwing it away at a garage sale, the pegboard and bottom shelf are really warped and need to be replaced

  • Palamedes on 04/10/2022 - 16:25

    In the last big wet at my place the MDF all went very moldy so I am either going to sand and paint it or just replace with something else all together like ply (which would be healthier for me).

    • sassypants on 05/10/2022 - 00:24

      Bunnings has a huge range of workbench tops you can choose from if you want to replace it. Was considering this myself to replace the MDF but haven't needed to yet.

      • Palamedes on 06/10/2022 - 08:39

        Great, thanks for the tip sassypants!

    Interested in this to put the 3D printer on in the garage.

    • Abaddon on 05/10/2022 - 15:36

      As long as it doesn't sway too much. Mine (FDM) is on the ground for that reason. Resin printer is on a folding table (much less important)
