I have that SAME workbench, but not under the "Ryobi" name. Its actually made by Keter. Here in the States, it was sold at Walmart under the "Hart" brand, and at orher stores under the actual Keter name. Hart is one of Ryobi's sister companies, just like Ryobi, they are owned by TTI as well. But back to the table, I honestly LOVE this work table. It is SO useful. Quick side note, those clamps will rust VERY easily. I used this table with a wet tile saw, and water splashed onto the clamps while clipped into the lower section. By the end of the day, the clamps already had lots of rust on them. I had to clean them with a wire brush and rust preventive.
Yeah, this is pretty much "the only table" nowadays.. but branded differently everywhere.. I actually got a Keter branded one from Costco, but instead of the clamps, it came with 4 track nubs and a track top down clamp. Mine also came with D rings which the one in the video didn't, he just seems to have screw holes in their place. I actually contacted Keter letting them know that mine didn't come with the clamps. Spacers for the clamps, but no clamps.. and they shiped some to me free of charge, which was quite nice... It wasn't until months later, someone else said they got theirs from Costco and also doesn't come with clamps, they went back to customer services, and was informed Costco doesn't supply the clamps with their variety, only the track stops, so he returned it. Then found out I had the clamps, and Costco nolonger sold the bench. So, it seems I was fortunate enough to get both the track stops, top down clamps and the normal clamps.. :D
Can you extend the height of the work surface? I’ve found that most of the work tables are too short, they need to be adjustable, so you don’t need to bend over when using it!
My first one broke at the leg hinge, i went and bought another one. Maybe i try a new table some other day if the 2nd one breaks the same. Maybe less folding might make it last longer.

I have one of these made by Keter.
I purchased it 4 years ago for $100 USD off Amazon and absolutely love it.
We even use it for camping.
Thanks for the review. Very comprehensive.

That table has been around for years under the Keter Brand and also Macallister at B&Q. Great table but your way late to the party with this video.

Great video! Is it possible to sit down next to the table to work on something or do the legs and lower shelf get in the way?
Hi, thanks....you can sit down but lower shelf is same width as top of the bench, so it will 100% be in the way.
Can you extend the height of the work surface? I’ve found that most of the work tables are too short, they need to be adjustable, so you don’t need to bend over when using it!
You cant, i do find it low as well, another 60-70mm would go a long way .
