Does anyone know anything about the WaldMann workbenches as featured on Amazon at the following link?
They appear to be nice heavy benches for the money but, as always, the opinion of someone who has used them or seen them in person is always helpful. Thanks.

I get plenty of use out of this one and not the same p[rice range as you describe.

Bought this 66" bench several months ago. $360 + $70 for the legs. Leg kit is pine, Adequate but not that heave. Bench is fine but not as heavy as some of the $800+ units I saw at Woodcraft.
I was discounted on the sale flyer so I believe I did well.
For a hobbiest I like the bench. If I were doing this for my livelihood I'd go for a bigger, heavier one.
I put a shelf on the lower cross members of the leegs and piched up 4 25 pound dumb bell weights from the dump. It doesn't move now. And the weights are useful for some gluing jobs.
