The Good
- 61" width is an excellent size for a workbench. I looked at 52" and 46" versions and found them to be too restrictive in terms of tabletop working space. You can do things on there but you won't have room to set things aside which is what the 61" is perfect for. The 61" version is also three inches deeper than the 52" version and those three inches make a world of difference in terms of space because it won't feel like objects are falling over the edge.
- The handlebars to pull out the drawer have a nicer black finish and feel more premium than the silver in the other versions.
- Comes with a soft mat for each drawer so you are not placing objects directly on the metal and potentially scratching them.
- The three columns of drawers feel more practical than having two columns (one long and one short). You have more options in terms of organization.
The Bad
- There were seven of these at my local Home Depot and every one of them had scratches on the tabletop. I am wondering if this is the reason Home Depot is running a sale. Be sure to check out your local shop before purchasing one. I have also heard that when you order online, they ship in different pieces and need to be assembled together. Maybe that's a better route to get a non-scratched tabletop although the shipping is very expensive ($150+) so that would negate any savings here.
- Contrary to what the pictures show on their website, all the stock in my local store had nails on the top surface holding down the table. The other versions did not have nails showing on the top. I am not sure if someone installed the tabletop incorrectly but I think it completely ruins the look of the table. Especially if you plan on using this table to shoot YouTube content like me.
- The wood finish is a little too light for me and I would have preferred something a little more orange or walnut giving it a more premium feel.
Hope this helps anyone thinking about buying it.
