No frills workmate

I bought a Black and Decker 300 in 1992, I still have it and still use it. This 301 is almost identical and I can't see why it wouldn't last just as long.
Other reviews say "it's not a Black and Decker item", mine came in a Black and Decker box and has a Black and Decker logo on it so I can say it is a Black and Decker.

Well worth the money for a quick and easy portable folding work bench.

Not Black & Decker

As pointed out by an earlier reviewer this is not a B&D item but a cheap copy. Having said that, it came with all the parts, was relatively easy to put together and will do the basic job of being something you can rest things on. I have an old Workmate and it is far superior. You get what you pay for.Read full review...

Well made a quality product

Sturdy and yet lightweight. Quality materials and easy to fold. Does the job it is designed for extremely well. Have used alternative brands in the past but has found them inferior to the Black and Decker hence this purchase.Read full review...

Yes it is lightweight.... but I would have selected something else had I been aware.

This is not a Black & Decker Workmate as Advertised ! I have however kept it as it is a hassle to return it & I need to use something straight away. The vice jaws are MDF & I would imagine they will not give me the wear my other B&D bench does.Read full review...

work bench wm301

Once put together it does what it says. Before you start to put it together check out u tube for the instructions on how to assemble because it is not easy trying to understand the supplied instructions. It is pretty easy if you check it out on u tube. I would recommend this workbench.Read full review...

well-made for light work.

This a well made and finished product. It is only suitable for light work, despite the claimed weight limit. I wouldn't use it as a step.

HANDY, LIGHT WEIGHT FOR HOBBIES AND CRAFTS.

IDEAL FOR WHAT I NEEDED, A LIGHTWEIGHT AID TO HELP AROUND THE HOUSE, FOR LIGHT REPAIRS AND DRILLING. ENJOYED PUTTING IT TOGETHER! HIGHLY RECOMMEND FOR LIGHT CRAFT WORK, NOT TO HEAVY FOR CARRYING ABOUT. CHEERS ALL THE BEST CBRead full review...

LIGHTWEIGHT

I have just bought this after my original 40year old B&D workmate with cast alloy stand and very well made in the UK corroded, this new one is probably fit for purpose but light not very stable and from an engineering view not well made.Read full review...

Workmate, goodmate and versatile

I've got an old B&D Workmate 400 which I like and although there are more versatile ones with holding jaws that flip upright I find them less firm when holing items. So for me this is the best bet. Good price, well made and the bamboo wood is fine.Read full review...
