If anyone is in need, Costco has these on sale for fifty six dollars, maybe less down there. The non- height adjustable version seems to be well reviewed. I just bought one and it is easy to set up and take down, but some stooping is required.

I've seen them at Costco but am pretty leery about the large % of plastic…I have three old Workmates, one I inherited from my Dad and the other two I picked up at garage sales…Workmates seem pretty junky these days but the older ones were build solid and serve me well. If I didn't have these and was in need, I might buy one of these from Costco, simply because anything can be returned to Costco at anytime and for any (or no) reason…I have a feeling I'd be too hard on something with that much plastic but maybe I'm wrong.

Measure once, cut as many times as needed to get it right! Bob
