Decent product
A little fiddly opening and shutting but seem sturdy enough. Been using for a few weeks Daily and happy with it so far.

Well Made, Good Value and Very Sturdy in use, But rather Heavy..!
They are very well made and good value for their quality and price, but since after first time of use I have not been able to get the second pair of legs to lock back into place.But will look to see if I am missing the knack of doing so, the next time I use them.

Poor design and not robust
I bought these less than two years expecting them to be overkill for my light DIY use. The immediate reaction was that, despite being made of good materials, they felt flimsy and awkward to use. Unfolding felt tricky: the whole saw horse flexes alarmingly when open and the leg adjustment is frustratingly snaggy. Using clamps feels insecure other when using the ends because of the deep then sides . The whole thing just feels wrong and prone to distortion.18 months in and one of them started wobbling like Bambi on ice. Turns out that the design relies on the edge of a flexible sheet balancing on the edge of another component with only about 2mm tolerance. A small distortion removes all the stability. I have repaired with some bending, but I expect it will happen again.Overall, a very disappointing design from a company which should know better. They have proved over-complicated and frustrating to use for DIY. In a trade setting I suspect they would be in a skip in the first week.

Robust, adaptable, reliable
Just started using these on a workshop build and they have been really useful for supporting long timber in line with a chop saw and with the addition of lengths of 95x47 located at each end has been super useful for sawing plywood. Their adjustable height also means that we can level it with the saw which is fixed to a Workmate. Thoroughly recommended.

Sturdy workhorses
These metal workhorses are sturdy, so quite heavy. They are well built and fold away easily (2 handed operation). The slots for wood to go into were 2mm thinner than standard planed wood from Wickes, so I had to plane some off in order for them to fit. They make a good square frame for a work table once this had been done.I recommend these.

Not as solid as they look.
Heavy but not as solid as i expected. Been using them for less than 7 months. They have become very un steady, rocking & wobbling which is annoying when trying to do accurate precise cuts. 1 of the red cary handles has split in half so can only carry them on my shoulders. Also watch your fingers when taken them down! Easy to store, fine for light materials but not for everyday use or professional trade person.

Good Value
This was a gift for my husband.It arrived on time and although I was keeping it until August for his Birthday gave it to him Fathers day instead. He said he will use it a lot as he has plans to make a lot of things and they fact these fold and you can use it like a work bench also was a bonus for him.

Well worth the money!
I liked the fact these pack down very small and are sturdy and heavy duty pieces of kit. I disliked the fact it wasn’t clear how to shorten the legs once extended but that might just be me, a quick YouTube video sorted that out.It would have been a design improvement to allow the width for the wood slots to be adjustable as finding wood to fit this was an absolute joke due to what woodshops sell. But this was overcome with a bit of planing.
