If it's in your budget, the WM425 adds a bunch of useful features like one-handed vice adjustment, vertical clamping, and a larger worksurface.
I have a WM225. I ordered this WM125 to scavenge the bench dogs (pegs) and the worksurface board assemblies to widen my 225's worksurface. I'll scavenge the clamping bits and feet pads for spare parts, then disassemble the frame and toss it in my scrap bin for use in some future project. All in, I'm satisfied with the value in parts for $20.
The 125 is OK, lighter weight than the 225, and sturdy enough to hold heavy things without collapsing. But if you push sideways on it at all, it shifts and twists a lot more than the 225. The 125 is also difficult to lock in the folded position - the plastic wing-nuts just don't hold tightly enough, so the top always wants to flop open unless you carry it very carefully. I'd really only recommend the 125 if you're going to set it up and leave it in place.

I have a 125 and a 225. The 225 is far sturdier, folds up much easier, and stores easier.
