Hello all, love the site, I've learned a lot, and would like to give back. I stumbled accross the Seville HD line, and after a google search found this site, and read nothing but good things about them, so I thought I would share my experience/opinion. My wife recently surprised me a Seville HD rolling workbench for my birthday, as seen here:
It has an 1 3/4" solid hardwood top, ball bearing drawer sliders, SS doors, huge rubber wheels, and the frame is powdercoated a wrinkle grey. It comes in 2 boxes that weigh close to a million pounds, and took about 2 hours to put together, but was well worth it. Each piece is numbered and labeled, and with the instructions, its almost impossible to assemble it wrong. They even include drawer liners and a magnetic screwdriver. I spent about an hour or so swapping all my tools over to the new box.
I just recently picked up the matching Seville HD workbench and one of their smaller rolling cabinets. The workbench took about 15 min to assemble. The table top is a little deeper than the workbench, which is nice (same thickness). It's also capable of supporting 1000 lbs (the rolling workbench as well as the smaller rolling cabinet can support 300 lbs)! The table has adjustable feet, so once it is in place, it can be leveled out. I was also pleased to see that the handle on the side of the workbench was able to fit underneath the table top- not that it would have taken much to remove, but just another sign that they thought things through.
The smaller rolling cabinet has all the same features as the big workbench, and took about an hour to put together. I'll be storing all my power tools in here. I'm so impressed with this brand- as far as I'm concerned, for the money nothing even comes close to these. Here are some pics of the finished products.

The vice is just sitting there for the picture (it's an old craftsman)- I havn't built up the courage to drill 4 holes in my new table just yet. Please excuse the mess in, on, and around the garage.
