I've seen this model on sale for $900.00, normally $1200-1600.00. I just bought a used one on Marketplace for $100.00, with the 4 drawer/cabinet option. The guy said he purchased it 10 years ago for $250.00.Wow, thats inflation! I also have the Harbor Freight equivalent which I have reinforced. IMO, the HF is a very close second, although their Vises aren't as good. My plan is to modify the Sjberg Bench, by improving the quality of the drawers as well as the number of them and their size, etc.

I bought the HF bench and was pleasantly surprised. I'm using it as my sharpening station with all my sharpening related gear, grinder, stones, etc. But I did some planing of boards on it was thought it a great tool for the price.

I have this bench and you can't beat it for the price. I do recommend adding some weight to it

It's a nice bench but it's a craft bench it's too light to do any serious work working on it assembly some light-duty works fine or to build birdhouses on it. Expensive bench for what it is! You can build an MDF bench much cheaper and just as good!
