Milwaukee 60" mobile workbench

I purchase 2 of these and were delivered today, they come on a palet. As you can see the casters aren't installed and you have to flip the workbench on it's side to install the casters. You need 2 people and a lot of padding as you don't want to scratch this beauty. The casters seem heavy duty and have brakes.

In some of the reviews, people complained that when you try to peel off the stickers, the paint would come off as well. I found it is not the case. The manufacturer probably took note of the many angry customers and the stickers peel right off without effort.

Nice set up. Almost bought one of these. I just saw husky is making one exactly like this in matte black.

Pull the drawers out and they are much lighter for tipping onto the side.

Congrats, looking good.
Post up your thoughts after loading up with tools as I'm looking to add another rolling box in near future.

We bought this same box about six months ago when HD had them for $600 as I remember. Great box, nice self closing drawers, etc. We made some small shelves for the back board to hold tape measure, pencils, radio, etc. Probably one of the better boxes for cheap money.

As i was unpacking, i found an advertising panel in each one of the workbench. The factory is advertising these for $598 regular price but Home Depot is having them listed at $698 but on sale for $598. Pretty sneaky to pretend that the factory regular price is the sale price at Home Depot.

One of the things you have to do, is get the extension cord out to the side. The extension cord, ships wrapped in a plastic bag in the first drawer, so you have to remove the first and second drawers to push the extension cord out to the side. A word of caution while removing and reinstalling the drawers. I read many reviews where people reported the roller balls would fall off when you remove the drawer. This is not the case if you follow the instructions and doing it carefully. I removed 2 drawers from each workbench and didn't have any issues.
