Review: Better than the more expensive version - This is a sturdy and simple bench. The height is ideal and the price is much better than the 2 x height more complicated version also by B&D. Now I've had both I would go for this uncomplicated model every time. It folds up very slim so will not protrude into your working space when stored. This comes as a kit of parts that need constructing before use. You will need a cross head screwdriver and either a hammer or water pump pliers to either hit or squeeze the pins in to hold the winding handles on.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the deluxe version actually better than the original one and is it worth the extra money?**
A: I would say, yes, but like so many things it depends on what you are looking for.
What I mean is that my workmate is at the heart of my limited space so we aren't just looking at a large jaw to hold whatever.
I have a 6" vice clamped to the back board of the Workmate and 4 x Irwin 300Ib clamps and 2 x Irwin 600Ib clamps as additions. 
So, with all the holes to drop chisels in the unit becomes a bench for all types of work . . . making it a work horse.
I mention the above for those only thinking of the basic use when a Workmate is so much more.
This unit has the lifting front which might be of use in the future.
The one handed thingy is ok but not too reliable . . . something I'm not bothered about.
More important:
No problem tightening the jaws if you move your index finger around the shank and not try and snap the orange handle off by putting all pressure just on that . . . although replacements are cheap enough.
With its splayed legs the unit is as solid as a rock when planing.
Summing up:
If you want a Workmate which is going to be thrashed around a work site buy a cheaper one.
If you are looking for the beginnings of your work system buy this one.
P.S. Yes, I have read the comments about the build quality of the steel section but haven't a clue what they are talking about.

**Q: How do I assemble the top sections. there apears to be no place to screw the rear section to and no reses in the frount board to alow for the coller o**
A: This video should help...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WAoL14J_T_o

**Q: Is this strong enough to hold wood block tight and carve?**
A: It is my belief that this product would be strong enough to hold a wood block for carving purposes.  We managed to assemble the B/D Workmate and had some help from a YouTube clip.  I am  pleased with my Workmate and it sees quite a bit of service.

**Q: Can anyone comment on whether you can rest (or need to) your foot on the bottom horizontal support to enhance the sturdiness? Thanks.**
A: Hi there , I find you need to when sawing with a hand saw , Although the cross members are only a couple of mm they are folded & held in place with 4 nuts & bolts each . I hope this helps

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It ok and good value, but not that well made.
*by G***F on 26 June 2014*

I already have three of the more typical Black & Decker Workmates, one of the original design and one with the wide opening grips, but now find them rather heavy, clumsy and too low, without unfolding the legs, for many jobs, so wanted something easier and simple to use, that was also higher and lighter. This will do nicely, but even as an engineer and experienced in DIY, I still found the assembly instructions none too clear, particularly for fitting the clamping boards. Compared to my older workmates, this is nowhere near as sturdy or as well made, but for what it cost it will do. The plastic "wing nuts" for locking the frame were pretty useless and the thread soon stripped, even with moderate force, and didn't grip at all, so I had to replace them with normal M8 metal wing nuts, with a washer. There was no thrust washer on the clamping screws, so I got two M10 washer and drilled them out to 11.5mm. M12 washers might have been ok. Inserting the pins in handle was ok, but you need to take care to line up the holes, or they can be difficult to get in. Basically you get what you pay for. I mostly wanted a portable, easily assembled, lightweight bench to stand a cross cut saw on, which I could use without having to bend down so much, so this workmate will be fine for that. However if the Silverline version had better reviews I would have got that instead and saved some money.
