WEN Bench Grinder Stand, 32-Inch with Water Pot (4288T), Black

I bought two of these stands: one for my Rikon 8” bench grinder and the other for my WEN 10” drill press. It worked perfectly for both applications. The black powder finish was in perfect condition and the parts were easy to assemble. It is fairly sturdy, but if you push really hard on it, it could possibly tip over. That shouldn’t be an issue for most people. Plus you could always secure the stand to the floor if you want more stability. For the price, this is a good stand for my needs. I only use my grinder for sharpening wood-turning chisels and gouges. And I only use the drill press for relatively small wood projects. So I’m not concerned about the stand easily tipping over.I use the included “water tray” for stowing my drill press’s chuck key and counter sink bits.Before I got the stand, my drill press was sitting on a workbench, which made it much too high for everyday use. I had to stand on a step stool to use it. Now the drill press is at a perfect working height and off my workbench.Mounting both the bench grinder and the drill press on the stands was super easy. The bolts that are supplied with the stand are too small, however. But I had some larger carriage bolts that I used for the drill press and machine bolts for the bench grinder, which I mounted on a piece of MDF to allow for mounting my grinding jigs, as you can see from the photo.In summary, I would buy this utility stand again should the need arise.

Really happy with this. Much sturdier then I would expect for $50.

The bench grinder causes it to dance around. Definitely needs to be bolted down or mounted on something heavy like a rim. Other than that, it feels sturdy enough and was easy to put together

This stand worked perfect for my drill press had to make a couple of small mods but that is expected with universal product'sWOW how amazingly sturdy when when you bolt it into the garage floor like your supposed to🤔

For the price point, it's hard to beat this. I wouldn't put this into a professional shop, but in my garage with a small grinder it works like a champ. Materials and construction are not pro quality, but they aren't cheezy either. Assembly was straightforward enough that my 12 year old son assembled it with only minimal help from me.Ideally this should be bolted to the floor - it's top-heavy and could be prone to tipping but it has holes for either mounting or for casters, which is what I chose so I can move it around the garage. I haven't had to yet, but I'll throw a sandbag on the base if I'm ever working on something that might put pressure on the grinder and possibly knock it over.3-inch casters (with brakes to keep the base sturdy) brought it up to the right height for me, as I'm 6ft tall. I chose the VEVOR Caster Wheels, 3 inch, Set of 4, 600 lbs Capacity, Threaded Stem Casters with Security Dual Locking A/B Brake, found on Amazon here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CHFNC1MYAll in all I have no buyer's remorse.

Bought several of these for mounting grinders and buffers on. Found these stands to be sturdy and easy to move around in my shop. Very simple to put together and the top plate has a variety of mounting slots making it adaptable to most brands of grinders and buffers mounted. Keeps my grinders and buffers portable so i can move them to the location I’m working in my shop and then store them away when I’m done.

The media could not be loaded. I'm blown away by how well this is made.I'm a welder and was going to diy but this was cheaper than making one from scratch.Almost no rattling. In video the only rattling is because my bench grinder is falling apart but it remains stable.Wen has been great for me for random other cheap tools!Highly recommend

Good bang for the buck! Easy to assemble with no missing parts. All set screws were already installed and it included the hardware to mount your grinder. I used a 6" Workforce brand grinder with no issues. The stand is a little short for me (31.5" high) so I added 3" locking casters as others have suggested. WARNING: The added height and being on wheels makes it top heavy and will turn over easily when rolling on uneven surface. That's probably why the casters are no longer included. Forgot to look here but I found the best deal on casters at my local China Freight store at $6 each where Big Blue had them for $12 each. You will need nuts and washers if you go with the casters. I found them at my local Red Hardware store and I think they were 1/2" with thin threads for the casters I used.
