I can't review the item's usefulness as it was returned before I got a chance to use it. Either there was something wrong with the unit that I bought (from a national home/hardware supply store) or I,the  multiple people who help[ed, and customer service at B&D are totally inept. I wasted an entire afternoon on this thing and eventually drove 20 miles to the store to have it assembled by the 'assembly expert' who spent 45 mins on it before declaring defeat. Ironically B&D has a step by step video on youtube shoring how to assemble the cheapie workbench, but no support for assembling this one. The printed instructions are a joke and you need a magnifying glass to decipher the illustrations. I returned the WM425 and bought the cheaper unit that I assembled easily in 20 mins.
