Thinking I'm gonna have to get one.

I had the same feeling about these as I had about workmates when dad got one. I thought it was a gimick tool.

I was wrong. We've used the workmate for thirty plus years on all type projects.

Wow, this is nice! Don't mind the crapy photo, the legs look uneven but it's the photo. Perfect!

I know how the large toggle clamps work but what are the 4 round things? I thought it came with 4 small thumb looking clamps about 2" tall that could hold things from sliding. Can't find a photo right now to post it.

Keter makes TWO models, one with leg extensions, one without, one with 2 clamps and one with 4 round holders and 2 other types of clamps.
BOTH models ARE listed on the Keter website.:willy_nil

Yes I know they make 2 models.

Sams has the green model with adjustable legs and 2 quick grip clamps, adjustable legs

Costco has the red model just like the one on the keter website, but photo two on the keter website shows the other clamps I am referring too, no where on the website does it show the round things, and this one has adjustable legs too

So if you get a table at Costco does it have the clamps on the website or the round things?

AND BTW ALL of those 6 "clamps" with the costco edition work with the other version! I have the lime green one and the red clamps work on it just fine to spite what the keter people tell you....I even ordered the spare items from keter.

I know everything people post in response to my question, but still no answer on what these clamps are? They are in picture two on their website. Photo below.

Apparently those are a third type of clamp that came on model 17199331 which seems to be the 3rd variant of this Keter work table, from my web hunting seems like this model # is not found too much but if you can call Keter and tell them you need these for table model # 1719931 and they will sell them to you like they did to me for the C clamps.


Lots of discussion on those clamps here too:

Is anyone still finding these for $39 at Costco, or is $79 on Costco.com, and $59 at Walmart now the going rate?

Thanks,
Chris

Rounded the corner in the tool department, at the neatest Home Depot EVER, near the Cambie Bridge in downtown Vancouver a couple weeks ago... and saw this!

You should feel happy because they'll make more money, and then probably release an updated/improved product.

That's one side of it. The other is that they are now pushing a product to a consumer retailer which may ultimately lead to them to cut costs in order to drive the more favorable margins to their buyer.

But if Home Depot is taking care of the marketing of the product, they should be able to achieve better margins with less spending there. :eyecrazy:
