What Customers Are Saying
This workbench is praised for its high quality, sturdiness, and adjustable height feature. Customers find the solid wood top and overall durability to be excellent. However, some report issues with the assembly process and the height adjustment mechanism. A significant number of customers also received their workbench damaged during shipping, which appears to be a common problem likely due to inadequate packaging.
Customer review summary generated by AI, including incentivized reviews.Quality is sub-par for a $350 table
1. Once I got it assembled I’m pretty happy with how sturdy it is. 2. However, my table was missing inserts that made it impossible to install the legs. I’ve heard customer service is a nightmare, so I ran out to to local hardware store and fixed this issue myself. This made assembly even more difficult. 3. I also had an extra triangle bracket in the box that I didn’t need. 4. Lastly, the hardware requires two different hex keys. The table only came with one of the sizes.

Awesome table
Would RecommendGreat bench, adjustable to the height you need. And made REALLY strong. Just have your own allen wrenches on hand... the one provided didn't fit the big allen screws

I like that it is adjustable in height.
Would RecommendIt appears to be very sturdy and ready for any kind of work. During assembly, some of the holes did not line up well and nuts were difficult to hold in place. The variable height is a plus, but not if you will want to adjust the height frequently; 16 nuts and bolts hold it's height.

Bench is sturdy, well finished, but assembly tough
Would Not RecommendWorkbench is sturdy, well finished, but assembly is frustrating. The hardware supplied was all there - just not the correct size. The 5mm allen wrench supplied didn't fit. I needed to use a 5.5 mm Allen Wrench. In excusable. Hardware is of dubious quality, soft steel. Locations are such that you can't use a drill or mechanical driver. A straightforward assembly which should have taken 20-30 minutes was a 2 hour excercise in frustration, and If height adjustment is ever required, I'll be I'l...

Workbench
Would RecommendSturdy. Definitely not a wimp. Table surface is so gorgeous you may not want to work on it. I’ll get over that. Kit requires 2 diff sized Allen wrenches. Only came with one.

Good, but Adjustable in the Least
This is a sturdy workbench that you can set a height between 32.8" and 40.8". But calling it adjustable is misleading. There are 16 bolts and nuts you need to remove to adjust the height. Once removed there's nothing stopping gravity from taking over. It's nice that this workbench can be set at different heights, but I feel like it's an adjustable table price without the adjustability. The hex key / allen wrench provided fits the majority of bolts, but I needed a larger key to fit the larger bo...
HEAVY DUTY..
Would RecommendLike this table alot it's real wood no light weight junk..better than the competition.
Quality construction
Would RecommendI had the work bench shipped to store for pickup. Only one small blemish from shipping. Very solid construction and materials. The bench is very adjustable. Drawbacks: Height adjustment requires nearly complete disassembly. Provided tools are not adequate to assemble. Additional allen wrench is required.

DAMAGED goods does not mean bargan
Would Not RecommendBeware I ordered 6 pieces: bench was ok, first 28” wide cabinet was ok. Since the second 28” cabinet I have now ordered 3 times, the (2) 36” wide cabinets were damaged, (1) 48” wide inch cabinet damaged as well. I now have no idea how much time and gas I have spent trying to get these put together, back and forth to the store, drop off and reorder, time waiting at home for the pick up person. Buyer beware before you purchase Kobolt cabinets. Plan on a lot of waisted time unless you want to take ...

Great Bench
Would RecommendThe only problem I have found is that the instructions are WRONG. They say the only tools needed are a drill and an adjustable wrench. However, as others have pointed out, there are TWO different size bolts used in the assembly of the unit. The one size requires a 5 mm hex wrench that is included as stated in the instructions. This tool is used for the m6 x 15mm bolts part BB. However, to attach the legs to the table top one must use the m8 x 20mm bolts part AA. There is no hex wrench incl...
