Summary: Workmate 425 is very good unit
Comment: Very nice sturdy construction with loads of features. Would recommend to anyone with a project that occasionally requires a workbench but with no space for one (like me).

Summary: Workmate 425 Project Center
Comment: I love this little work bench, but being a woman, trying to put it together was quite the experience!! Directions are not clear, and the pictures just don't help at all.
Once I did get it together, it has been a great help....Black & Decker needs to provide better instructions and pictures to help us figure things out, and the language, if it was simply put would help also!

Summary: tried and true
Comment: I've had my workmate since 1988. It's moved all over the place with me, I've used it to build everything imaginable, I've cut wood with it, steel with it. I even used it to hole a piece of steel tubing the other day while I cut it with my hot wrench (of course gotta stay away from the top). I've used it has a saw horse, the clamps to put wood together, all kinds of stuff. It's one of the best items I own. I was trying to figure out how to build a folding workbench for my woodshop, maybe I'll just buy another one of these!!

Summary: Really fits the need
Comment: With limited space and the need for mobility to work in different places, this is a great tool. Light enough to move around, easy enough to set up and more than slim enough to store when not in use, this tool fits my needs.
Bought it at a local home center so there were no setup or box issues.
I already made 2 different sized tops out of plywood, topped with hardboard. I just screwed a 2x4 cleat to the bottom of the plywood which clamps into the stand.
Allows me to have a selection of 3 different sized tables with plenty of room for additional clamping too.
If you need to save space, move around a bunch and low cost - can't beat it!

Summary: Workmate 425: Could be easier to open and close.
Comment: The product generally works as intended and it is nice to have a workbench that folds away in limited space. However, opening and closing are a hassle and I find myself reviewing the directions everytime I have to do either!
In time, I will probably drill more holes for the plastic stops. They are too far apart for smaller jobs where I just want to hold a piece of wood for sawing.

The Black & Decker Workmate Project Center might just be the item you need to make your home shop complete. Its versatility makes it an especially ideal choice for those with limited shop floor space: use it as a workbench, a bench tool stand, a vise, or a sawhorse, then quickly break it down and store it out of the way. Because it's lightweight and portable, you can move it conveniently wherever it's needed. The one-handed vise clamp system, with its exclusive clutch design, provides quick and easy clamping. The Workmate also features an extra block to expand your work surface, four swivel pegs, and an adjustable front jaw that swings up for vertical clamping. Its legs fold under to provide the lower height and stability needed when you're using it as a base for bench tools, and its all-steel construction and rubber feet ensure a stable, strong work surface that supports up to 550 pounds. All in all, we were pretty impressed. With features like these, it's no wonder the Workmate is a popular choice for light-duty and home shop use. --Tim Block
