In the unlikely event of a fault the item returned is subject to fair wear & tear and must not have been used beyond the scope of it's design.
It's a heavy sturdy unit, but with a few bits that I'm not sure will stand the test of time -- the one-handed operation mechanism seems flimsy and sometimes jams, while the catches tend to end up on the wrong side of their slots when folding up the workmate.This was a present so we wanted to give it intact. It would have been very helpful to have been told 2 other items were in the same box. It wasn't an outer box but the named workmate box. People also complain about the assembly of these and to be fair the instructions are woeful. That is why we put a video up here, and if you follow that, you will get it done. Adjustable swivel pegs and jaw retention grooves provide clamping versatility and reliable material hold
The principle is that you can fix the piece you are working on to the workbench so that you can work on it with both hands without the risk of it moving.

After all these use thin steel and fold up, so they will never be as solid as a properly made work bench. The frame then folds relatively flat which allows you to set it against a wall, or hang it up out of the way, to stop it taking up room in your storage
