Product Description
SJOBERGS of Sweden has been manufacturing top quality workbenches for over 80 years. Their entire product line of workbenches was designed to meet the needs of a modern day woodworker and to take advantage of the latest manufacturing techniques. The range of features is truly amazing and cannot be matched by any other manufacturer. Based upon the latest SJOBERGS design, the Nordic Plus series gives you the size you need at a price you can afford. The bench top is constructed in hard Nordic Birch. The amazing versatility of vice location permits left or right handed use, clamping on both ends or dual clamping on the front. All of the wood in the bench is FSC certified which guarantees forestry renewal. The hard Nordic birch top is built to last for a lifetime of normal use. Supplied with four steel bench dogs with a plastic coating to protect your edge tools. There is a double row of 3/4" clamping holes working from each of the four vise locations, giving an endless opportunity to clamp your work! All three benches are 33-1/2" high, 19-5/8" wide, have a 1-1/8" top thickness at the center and a 2-3/4" thick skirt. Vises open 4-1/2". These benches are available with or without a storage cabinet.Sjoberg Nordic Plus 1450 Workbench Review
When I unpacked the bench, I saw right away that there was a split on one side where the vise slides into the bench. I contacted Robert Larson direclty and after determining the part could not be replaced, he sent a new bench right away and was a pleasure to deal with.The instructions for assembly were sparse but I was able to set it up in about an hour using an allen and a slotted wrench. The Nordic 1450 is a great well constructed bench, the picture doesn't show it also has a handy shelf underneath. This bench comes with two vises and four options on where to position them (the can be placed on the left or right side on the front of the bench or on either end) so there is flexibility. There are no buzzes and whistles, just a sturdy bench that's worth every penny. I highly recommend this product.
On a side note- The one delivered by Amazon was sent in the box from the manufacturer but Robert Larson placed the replacement in reinforced packaging before delivery and while the split wood was probably not caused by the packaging, I did notice the wood was pristine in the second bench and dinged here and there on the first bench from Amazon. If I decide to purchase the optional cabinet for this bench, I will go directly to the retailer.
