Design and features
- Folding & Telescoping Legs – With a quick folding design, the legs can be easily and quickly folded into the work table and then be fixed to become a dolly. What’s more attractive is this workbench owns telescoping legs that have 3 nodes, allowing you to adjust it to 3 different heights. Large non-slip feet generate a broad, ultra-stable stance to stay where you place them.
- Robust Steel Frame & Reversible Panel – The entire frame is made of sturdy light metal and has a carrying capacity of up to 330 lb. Locking legs provide a rock-solid work surface, which ensures durability and longevity. This workbench also has a detachable countertop with two different surfaces: one side has anti-skid grain, facilitating a person to stand above or stack heavy goods. The other side has a scale up to 31-1/2″(81cm) and a protractor.
- Super Mobility – The workbench has two swivel casters and two large-size anti-skid wheels. It can be used as a creeper, dolly, and so on when folded. The swivel casters enable the workbench to have the function of perfect steering. The large-size anti-skid wheels adopt high-quality materials and guarantee that the workbench slides smoothly, and easily rolls through many pits or bumps.
- Quick Loading of Miter Saw – It also features a miter saw stand that can be quickly loaded and disassembled through four metal toggle latches. Two tool mounts of the miter saw stand can be screwed/unscrewed to adjust their tightness.
- Storage Compartment & Sockets – WORKPRO also pays attention to the details of the workbench, adding a lot of subtle but necessary functions. It has 3 three-head output sockets, 1 three-head input socket, and a reset switch. A wide and thick handle relieves the pressure on the palm of your hand when you drag the workbench. Storage compartments for placing parts, screwdrivers, drills, etc. also provide additional convenience.
The WorkPro Miter Saw Stand 5-in-1 Portable Workbench is made from various materials including aluminum, wood, ABS, etc. It features a reversible top, folding legs, legs that can raise or lower, wheels, and casters, for flat rolling or carrying. There is a handle to assist with carrying. It also includes add-on mounts for a miter saw or any tool with similar mounting options. There is a built-in three-head input socket, a reset switch, and 2 AC outlets. There are also storage compartments for organized parts, screwdrivers, drills,
Assembly
Assembling the WorkPro Miter Saw Stand 5-in-1 Portable Workbench is relatively easy. You do need some tools including a socket set and screwdriver. The following photos show some of the steps from my assembly process:
Performance
The WorkPro Miter Saw Stand 5-in-1 Portable Workbench performs very well for several of my Miter Saws and is stable when using them, I like that I can store the tools I am working with right next to the saw. Those of us who work with tools can testify regarding how many times while working we walk back and forth looking for a tool that we just used a few minutes before. I like that I can plug in another device in addition to my Miter Saw right on the workbench eliminating the need for additional extension cords to a surge protector. I am not a mechanic so I do not use the workbench flat on the ground, but I have tested how it rolls and it works well. The wheels also work well for moving the workbench around. The reversible surface gives me options for a work surface, but I would not use this workbench to stand on since the legs do not always lock securely in place and have slipped multiple times while I was setting up. Overall, I do use this workbench frequently as a Miter Saw stand and a work surface e for other related tasks.
The following video provides an overview of this workbench along with my thoughts about functionality and quality:
What I like about the WORKPRO Miter Saw Stand 5-in-1 Portable Workbench
- The workbench is easily assembled
- The flexibility to use it in different ways
- The portability
What needs to be improved?
- A more secure locking mechanism for the legs
- Better shipping packaging to protect the workbench
Final thoughts
The WorkPro Miter Saw Stand 5-in-1 Portable Workbench is a convenient tool for working on projects where you need an adjustable height work surface and the option of a Miter Stand. I like the built-in power block that allows flexibility for plugging in an additional tool. I dislike how the legs lock and I would never use it as a scaffold to stand on. otherwise, the wheels make it easy to move around, and I have been using it regularly for swapping out and using my Miter Saws that do not have their own stand.
