Just saw these workbenches at Bunnings Balcatta WA. They are marked down from $299 to $150. I can't find them on the bunnings website but it appears to be these: https://www.pinnacle.net.au/product/heavy-duty-premium-adjus…

Doesn't look like a heavy duty workbench.
all in the eyes of the beholder…. what aspects make you believe it isn't a heavy duty workbench?
(my analysis….it's flat, it's at about my bench working height… it's got a fair area (2M x .6M) and it can withstand a fair load (800kg)
I'm genuinely curious…. I've got a number of their (pinnacle) racks in my supershed…. they don't take loaded pallets but they take significant weight…If you were hammering in the middle (or just about anywhere) i think it would bend or deform. I've got shelving that looks similar to this. And yes it's great for storage, but no way I would use it as a workbench because it wouldn't last.
I suppose it depends what you intend to use it for. But for me a heavy duty workbench should be able to withstand impacts/forces from various angles. Not just hold weight.
Fair enough…. I've got an incredibly heavy workbench that's top is plate steel on one side and wood on the other… it's about the only workbench I have that I'd do hard hammering on. I've got tough wooden benches that I'd only do light hammering with, but nothing with the 2Kg sledge.
Thanks for your reply.
These are still $299 in Belconnen. They actually do look pretty damn good!
IN number is 0387215 if anyone needs. Seems to be full price around SA still.
