3.0 out of 5 stars Bowing side panels, October 8, 2004

This review is from: Bench Dog 40-007 ProCabinet Router Table Cabinet (Tools & Home Improvement)

After 6 months of average use, both side panels, where the Bench Dog Cab-Loc wheels are installed, are bowed in about 1/2 inch. The demo unit at the local Woodcraft store showed the same bow, but not as bad. The length of the casters on the inside of the cabinet is too great to support the weight of the cabinet. Woodcraft didn't seem interested and suggested I contact Bench Dog. I have not heard from them as to a fix for this problem or if they will warranty this product. If they don't respond, I will have to add braces under the cabinet for support. That's what you get when you buy particle board.

This review is from: Bench Dog 40-007 ProCabinet Router Table Cabinet (Tools & Home Improvement)

Given Bench Dog's reputation for quality router accessories, the price of this cabinet took me aback. It's extremely solid, and stands at a very convenient height for repetitious work (about 36 inches with a top and levelers). There are some very nice accessories (wheels, drawers, etc.) which make this one of the best router table cabinets (if not the best) on the market.

With a bit of work one can fit many routertops to this base, but if you but top, fence, and table as a package the price is hard to beat, and overall quality is impressive. The door hinges are commercial cabinet hinges, for example. Much heavier grade than the usual hardware associated with particle board. If you want to work with the doors shut, and opening is provided for a air cleaner hose.

If you've been wondering what to do about a permanent router table take a good look at this cabinet. I think you will find it extremely suitable.
