Kreg KRS1035 Multi-Purpose Shop Stand

Very nice solid stand for my kreg router table top absolutely love it already started building a cabinet around it

Bought this stand to use with a Makita Planer. Perfect size and heavy duty. Easy to assemble and will definitely purchase another one. Make sure you get good casters because this stand is heavy once it is assembled. Kreg makes great products. Just take your time with assembly and you will be happy with your purchase.

The Kreg KRS1035 is a nice heavy steel stand.The only complaint I have is that Kreg really does not know how to package this unassembled shop stand. Regardless of whether you order this online or happen to see one at a store that sells them, the boxes are always falling apart. They really need to double-box these and tape the corners a lot better. I had to order it twice from Amazon, because the first time I ordered it, it fell apart in shipping most likely and so it never made it to my house. The second package made it and this is what I am reviewing.It takes about an hour to assemble. If you have a work table, I highly recommend assembling it on a table top of some sort. The KRS1035 does not come with wheels. You have to buy those separately and they are pretty expensive. I opted to buy some quality wheels from Amazon and they worked very well with the KRS1035.The other accessory that you might want is some sort of power switch and cord management if you are going to use it as a router table. I did opt for the Kreg power switch and got some more hardware and velcro cable ties to pin to the table legs. This worked out well enough so my router power cord is nicely managed.

This stand is almost as sturdy as my welded together shop stands. I say "almost" because I know that a welded stand has to be more sturdy. But you really can't tell the difference. Some reviews had said the packaging was not good and arrived busted open so fasteners and parts were missing. Mine arrived in a very sturdy box with the ends and corners taped over. All part were contained inside and all fasteners were in plastic bags (maybe the manufacture was listening). Also, after assembling the stand I decided I wanted the Kreg caster kit that is made for it. The caster kit is excellent, very strong and when you lock the wheels they not only lock the wheels rolling but also lock the wheel assembly from rotating on the mounting stud. This double locking feature makes the stand remain as solid on the casters as it was on the fixed feet. I highly recommend this stand.

I want to start off that this stand is great for a small shop. The reason for the 1-star review is that I have ordered this 3 times and it has a 50/50 chance of arriving with no issue. I returned one with missing parts and one was lost in transit which I had to cancel and reorder. Two were delivered without an issue, but after I had to deal with the issues. The third one is now delayed so probably will have to reorder.

I had to return the first shipment because it was delivered with one end of the box missing, and numerous parts simply not present. the replacement box also had damage but no parts were missing. Part of this is the carrier ,and part of it is Kreg. Someone needs to have a critical feedback session with their packing designer, because they have completely missed the mark.To the stand. Powder coating is good. One of the legs was not even close to bent at 90 degrees. It was off easily 5 degrees, way more than expected spring back from bending steel. I was concerned it would not come together, but with careful effort and force, it did and was fine. All the legs were not 90 degrees but close enough to be serviceable. Again, someone may wish to examine this step in the manufacturing process because the consistency just is not there based on my small sample set.Assembly is fairly straighforward and, with some care during assembly, the end product is square and sturdy. I opted for the Kreg casters, mostly just tired of shopping. They are also sturdy, roll well, and the locks work as they should.I would consider this system again if I wanted a rugged steel table frame.Kreg, please work on the packaging. The single walled box for the ends just isn't doing it.

First of all, the quality of this unit is top-notch as I would expect it to be from Kreg Tool. Once assembled it was sturdy and everything about it is heavy duty. I would recommend this product 100%. The product itself is not my reasoning behind my two star review.The seller on Amazon that I bought this from sent me a unit that was clearly unboxed at some point. The bottom cross member had a significant dent and scuff. If that wasn't bad enough all of Hardware was missing with the exception of two of the adjustable legs.I had to spend another $70 in carriage bolts and nuts, and another $65 on a Caster kit to make this usable. Not to mention wait on all of it to show up. If someone is in the market for this item, I would highly recommend buying directly from Kreg as I will be doing in the doing in the future so as to avoid this nonsense again.Needless to say I'm not too happy about getting ripped off and not receiving what I paid for. Buyer beware.

Very solid stand. Works well with my Bosch router table. Added wooden shelf on lower brackets for storage.
