SPACEKEEPER Workbench Casters kit 660 Lbs - Retractable Casters Heavy Duty Bench Caster Wheels Designed for Workbenches Machinery & Tables, 4 Pack

I have a large cement-floored barn. I had some extra kitchen/dining room tables that I wanted to use as worktables instead of letting them just sit disassembled gathering dust. But I wanted to keep the floorspace of the barn easily re-configurable since I do oil changes and other vehicle maintenance in the building and need to be able to quickly clear floor space.For the first table, I used some old, but high-quality metal-framed-with-bearing office chair casters. They work and they were free, so I am just going to keep using them. But for the second table, I ordered these.The better relative usability and suitability is clearly evident. The first table with the re-purposed casters rolls but is hesitant to move and I can’t let it down on the legs.These roll much easier, and I can let the table down on the legs for extra stability if needed.Installation was simple enough. As others have mentioned, there may be a slight learning curve with your first caster as the instructions (or rather lack thereof) are unclear. But after learning and seeing the process, it is easy enough.The included fasteners are of decent quality. I pre-drilled all the holes and none of the screws stripped out when installed with an impact driver. But I’ve had enough experience with these types of products to see that if you did not pre-drill, these would almost certainly strip out.The included “disposable wrenches” are actually of quite high quality. I had an entire workbench full of wrenches and sockets sitting 6 feet away during installation and I just kept using the included “disposable” tools. Sometimes tools like that are terrible but in this case they are excellent for this specific application.After installation, I tested both tables rolling up and onto some thin carpet. The re-purposed casters struggled. These did so easily.

Great product, good installation instructions. Used to be able to move garage bench around.

If I could have given 4 1/2 stars, I would have. The instructions are not quite adequate. Had to look at the photos of the product on Amazon to know which side of the bottom plate was up, as instructions were unclear. Installation was straightforward. Can be installed with accompanying tools, but I would suggest getting out your own wrenches/sockets (metric) for a slightly easier job. Not really excited by the quality of the bolts, though they seem to be holding up right now. Seem cheap. Otherwise, all good. Had to lift up on a fully loaded table to get the wheels down; my full weight (185 lbs) was not enough to do it by foot pressure alone.Overall, a good idea, and worth the money, even if they could have splurged a little more on the bolts.

This is one of the best set of castors I have ever used. They are very easy to assemble and easy to install. The first set was so easy to install I ordered a second set. They lifted my large table saw stand like it was nothing and let’s me move it around with ease.

Easy to install, came with a paper outline for a quick installation. They have great smooth movement when using. Could stand so much weight! I used it for a small stage at my brewery and move to several places.

These are similar quality (good) to the casters on the power tool base dollies I have in my shop.The drilling template has a dotted line on the "floor" end with about 1/8-3/16" or so of border that's meant to be trimmed. Consider leaving it on when you layout the holes, especially if you have irregular or shimmed legs and are not confident getting the clearance right. After trimming that template border prior to layout, my wheels just barely clear the floor with the levers up and the bench at rest. It only takes a small amount of wheel to keep your bench mobile when you don' t intend it to be. There's plenty of height when the bench is raised so that 1/8" or so isn't going to matter.Another thing to be aware of is the two sizes of lag bolts used to attach the foot lever and the wheel plates are very close and easy to confuse visually. I installed one longer bolt where the shorter bolt was meant and I had to redo it. My bad, I know, but I'm sure I'm not the only one.Finally don't overtighten the nuts on the foot levers or the motion will be too stiff to use comfortably. The reason they come with lock nuts is you can back off a little and still have a secure fit. The nuts on the wheel plate bolts can be tightened fully without effecting the wheel motion.

Overall they work ok. Very poor (almost non-existent) installation instructions, but not difficult to figure out. They provide a pair of wrench type things for tightening the included nuts, but these do not account for clearance so I used my own socket wrenches (again, no problem). In driving in one of the screws, the screw either sheared or broke (photo attached). It looks like they are made from a cheap soft metal. Not a big problem, I have plenty of screws. However, this makes me wonder how well the rest of the product is constructed, and how long it is liable to last.
