Harbor Freight’s popular workbench is on sale for $120

[LittleLebowski]

I love mine that is in use as my reloading bench. I paid $135 for mine and don’t regret the purchase at all.

Wondering the same thing, as things I have seen assembled in stores, are not always done correctly, also still awaiting another answer, so I probably won't get this one answered either:

This bench is pretty darn sturdy. The top is not solid hard wood though. I would through bolt any reloading press and not trust lag screws.

I don't load on mine but I'd think it would be as good as any free standing bench could be.

Bracing with a 2 X 4 on each side will help. On each end attach plywood to legs from floor up. On bench in the middle, attach 2 x 6 from front to back edges. Use this area for attaching press. For convenience, you may wish to use large C clamps for attaching press. If possible, anchor table to wall. Using a 2 X 6 as suggested is necessary to prevent flexing or breaking over time.

I'm so very sorry you didn't get timely advice from a stranger on the internet. I suppose you feel owed.

I don't think I can comment on that since mine has been bolted to the wall and floor since I got it.

Owed, no. I didn't assume you would come back, based on evidence of hit and run bargain alerts.

And yet you took the time to make a passive aggressive, snide comment instead of researching it for yourself, because that is more satisfying or easier than making a phone call or searching the internet. What an odd thing to get bitchy about.

Thanks LL. I’m looking for a reloading bench for the new house. Do you think this is sturdy enough for a 650 and stuff if not bolted to the wall or floor?

I put wheels on mine. makes a great mobile work bench.

Yup, so long as you weigh down the bottom shelf.

I’ve used it with a 550 and no problems. I did reinforce the top though.

I had a FWD transmission on mine with no issues.

If I have to choose between hit and run bargain alerts and hit and run passive aggressive whining, I’m pretty sure I know which way I’m going to go.

If anyone is offended, or even bothered, by the fact that someone on the internet doesn’t answer their questions, go post about it on Facebook and/or Twitter.

I can't help how you choose to take it, as it was meant more as a don't expect feedback to the poster that asked a question. Review sites are out there, although I wouldn't recommend the one that once was good (yahoo forum). How to get the deal when others cannot (or can't find it via the woot/spoofee/slickdeals, etc. etc. etc sites), I thought warranted my earlier question.
