Who's using the Home Depot Husky tables or workbenches for their reloading station?

Finally moved into a new house and have a good sized heated, insulated garage. I originally thought I would build a workbench, but I don't have all the time in the world on my hands and lumber prices are insane.

Home Depot has a lot of their Husky branded stuff on sale for 30-35% off currently with free ship.

This one peaked my interest, but I wonder if it is heavy/stable enough

Starting to lean towards one of these and mount some pegboard or square-lok panels on the wall
 
I'm not using a husky but I'm using something similar. Can't remember which but it came from sams club I think. Ordered it online. Seems to work fine but I'd much rather have the skills tools and knowledge to build a custom bunch.

I bought three of the HD work benches with the drawers on a Black Friday sale a few years ago.....they work great and with casters i can move for cleaning should that ever happen. A buddy remodeled his kitchen and bought one for a moveable island. A local body shop changed the color for his wife's taste.
 
Mine is similar. Works just fine. I have a wheeled drawer set that fits underneath.
 
I used a folding Black & Decker WorkMate for the first 10 years of reloading when I got married. Didn't have space. Now it's a dedicated bench in the work room.
 
The Yukon wood working bench from harbor freight is a pretty solid option IMO, specially with a coupon. It’s way more solid than I thought it would be. Biggest annoying thing about it, is it has holes in the surface I cut a 3/4 wood dowel up and plugged them all.


I like the holes. Makes it stupid easy to clamp things down on the bench.


Rockchucker mounted on a board, take it on and off as you want. My 4 different shotshell presses, mounted on boards. Work in same area, can set everything under the bench.
 
I have the husky table and it works well for me. Solid and adjustable height is nice because I stand for all my reloading chores
 
I use a truckstop restaurant table base. And a scrap of 1/4 inch aluminum plate for the top. Space saving and portable, if ya move a lot....

I use that husky table with my press mounted right to the top. It is very sturdy. I looked at multiple options and based on cost and sturdiness, the husky table was the best.
 
I've been using the 8' Husky adjustable height workbench for almost 10 years now. Love it. Solid legs and heavy bench top make for a stable reloading platform.

used a Husky adjustable top for years, worked great, but after picking up some lower cab's I switched over this year for better space and storage20200505_185539.jpg

You can build a hell of a workbench for $250. The items like these look clean for sure but I always end up talking myself into just building it and I can make it whatever I want. I'm a cheap ass.
