Waterloo metal workbench - opinions please?

I have a Waterloo tool chest. It was cheap. It is also flimsy, one of the drawers barely works at all. If you do get the Waterloo workbench don't put Waterloo drawers into it.

I have an older Craftsman workbench that came with my 9" Logan lathe. It appears to have been made by Waterloo, and it is lightweight and flimsy also. I believe that Waterloo makes a better grade of products as well.

I have sold Waterloo chests in the past. They make a variety of qualities from Canadian Tire type stuff to professional...
