This is a great woodworking bench. Heavy, solid, straight, versatile. Exactly what I was looking for, though I was reluctant to spend that much. Glad I did, I guess sometimes you do get what you pay for. One word of advice, be sure to have plenty of bodies available to help move and assemble.

After much research and soul-searching, I decided to invest in a Sjoberg Elite 2000 bench to help me with my woodworking with handtools. I'd looked at many options online, and drove 25 miles to a local Woodcraft store to take a look at the range of Sjoberg benches - and I'm glad I did. The models in the $500 range lacked the solid feel you want when planing a board - and the Elite 2000 is not only solid but features 2 excellent vices. I decided to order from Amazon because they had the best price ($50 cheaper than my local Woodcraft with no taxes (9.5% in CA) ) and offered Free Scheduled Home Delivery for Amazon Prime members. It took about 10 days for the bench to arrive, and the delivery guys made their scheduled drop by pulling up to my house it at 2:58 pm. The bench was well packed, with the bench top (with pre-installed vices) securely fastened to it's own shipping skid. The legs and hardware were well packed in a second box - not padded, but well fit in a box. After reading ScottW's excellent review, I had planned to spend time sealing the bottom of the bench. What I had not expected was to find sloppy workmanship on a $1700 workbench. Based on ScottW's advice, I decided to remove both vices to apply oil underneath. The unit ships with a small hex-head wrench for just this purpose - but I found that the wrench head would not go into 1 of the 8 screwheads on the tail vice. I found small driver head that fit the screw - and was surprised to find that instead of being inserted at 90 degree angle like the other 15 vice screws, it was slanted at 45 degrees. Not only that, but the screw was not the same as the others - a standard wood screw instead of the collared hex-head screw that appears to be the standard - and the head of the screw was bent. (see photos I uploaded). With some effort I got the odd screw removed - will have to replace it. Once the vices were removed, I was stunned to see that the factory finish coat of oil was applied over the face vice - leaving a large section of unfinished wood on the face of the bench (see uploaded photos). Even when I applied the supplied oil (which was rather "gunky" with separated bits of was floating in the linseed oil) the coloring on the face didn't match the factory-applied oil. I have to wonder if my workbench was the last one finished on the Friday before a big holiday - All that said - this looks to be a well designed workbench and the core elements appear to be well made. The vices are high quality, and the glue up on the top appears to be top quality. I'm giving it 4 stars for now - willl update this review once I've completed assembly and put the bench through a few tests. Overall - solid design, well packed and shipped on time - just be prepared that you may find a few surprises when it's time to put it all together. UPDATE: After 6 months of use, I stand by the 4 star review of this workbench. I have now completed several projects, and have used my jointer plane to return the benchtop to dead flate - something you should expect to do every 1-2 years depending on where you live. As I've learned more, one small criticism is the 1" holes for bench dogs and hold downs - the standard size for most benches is 3/4", which means you can not readily use hold downs and wooden bench dogs from other manufacturers. The Sjoberg hold down is solid, but bulky compared to others (see Veritas Bench Hold Down 05-G-1401 on Amazon) that are designed for 3/4" bench holes. Recently, the folks at Lie-Nielsen have come out with a $2000 "Improved Workbench" that I would have considered had it been on the market when I plunked down $1700 for this Sjoberg bench. Check it out if you're in the market - it's not only made in America, but I've acquired several L-N tools and the quality of the workmanship and customer service really sets them apart. I tried contacting Sjoberg in Sweden, but was disappointed by the poor quality response I received - another reason I'd stay closer to home for such an important purchase.

Outstanding workbench. The biggest problem is that it looks like a piece of fine furniture, so you may be hesitant to start banging away on it! I considered benches from Pinnacle, Veritas, Ramia, Lie-Nielson, Hoffman-Hammer, Grizzly, and Laguna before eventually choosing the Sjoberg. In looking at the available choices, the sheer mass of this one attracted me -- the top is a full 3-1/4" thick, with a 4-1/4" skirt. Few others have that kind of mass. Even the Lie-Nielson has only a 2-1/2" thick top, although in its defense, the LN top is hard maple as opposed to the beech used by Sjoberg. (The only other contender here is the Grizzly 84" bench, which has a 4" thick top, but I eliminated it from the running because I needed something shorter than 84" and I read numerous complaints about the hardware on the Grizzly bench.) I really liked the chain drive, twin-screw vise on the Lie-Nielson... But not enough to justify the nearly 1k additional cost! The vise hardware on the Sjoberg Elite 2000/2500 is quite robust, and I'm happy with it. Unfortunately, there isn't much information about this hardware available online, so I will add some to this review for potential buyers to consider. The Elite's side and end vises are identical. They each employ a single acme screw at the center, with 1" by 2" rectangular steel bars at either side of the screw. The bars are held horizontally by what appear to be Delrin strips, and those strips can be tightened against the bars via two adjusting bolts. The end result is a smooth, tight vise with very little horizontal or vertical racking. (One of mine was a little loose, but a quick adjustment of the bolts corrected that.) The vise faces are 23-1/2 wide by 4-1/4" high, and 2-1/2" thick. The rectangular bars are inset 6" from each end of the vise, so when holding a board vertically you have a full 6" of clamping surface at the left or right side of the vise. The side-mounted vise can be easily relocated to the other side of the bench. The manufacturer's description says this can be done in "two minutes", but that's a bit optimistic. I would say 10-15 minutes would be a better estimate. The end vise cannot be moved to the opposite end -- so switching from a "right-hand" to a "left-hand" configuration consists of moving the side vise to the opposite side, then rotating the top 180 degrees on the trestle (only the front set of trestle legs have dog holes, so you want the side with the vise aligned with those). Only the top and sides of the benchtop are oiled. This is probably fine if you have a heated, humidity-controlled workshop (yeah, doesn't everyone?). Most people will want to oil the bottom of the workbench and the dog holes (hint: remove the vise hardware so you can oil the wood above it) before setting the top on the trestle. Sjoberg supplies a bottle of what I think is raw linseed oil, but I chose to use a 50/50 mix of boiled linseed oil and turpentine for better penetration and faster drying. The top is reasonably flat, with some slight crowning of about 15/1000 from center to edge. This may be due to the way it was stored/transported, coupled with only being oiled on one side. Who knows what conditions it has encountered between manufacture in Sweden and final delivery to me. I plan to wait a few weeks for it to aclimatize to my shop, then re-check and flatten if necessary. The double row of dog holes down the length of the bench, coupled with the double-row across the bench adjacent to the side vise, provide a lot of clamping choices. But beware the dog holes are 1" diameter rather than the more common 3/4" -- and there are very few third-party dogs, holdfasts, etc made for 1" holes. The bench comes with (4) steel dogs, and additional dogs are available from Sjoberg in steel or aluminum (the aluminum are a lot lighter, and also less likely to damage a plane iron if you hit one). Sjoberg also makes a 1" screw-clamp holdfast that works really well. All in all, an outstanding bench most likely destined to become a family heirloom.

Great bench but as others noted vast majority of bench clamps and accessories on the market are 3/4 " posts. I bought 1" to 3/4 " XJMOTO wheel bearing reducers on Amazon and they work perfectly. They fit just right in the 1" Sjoberg bench holes and the 3/4 clamp posts fit just right inside the reducer. The 3/4 clamp posts remain engaged with inside walls of reducer to allow max clamping pressure, yet readily disengage when you want to adjust or remove the clamp. Now I can use all of my 3/4 " bench clamps,stops,etc all over my bench.

Went together with the precision that is a rarity in anything these days. Every part was included, fit exactly as it should, and is well made. Bench is heavy, solid and beautiful. My wife even commented on how good looking it is. So glad I went with Sjoberg.

Big and heavy workbench. Came in just two days in two boxes in excellent shape. Bench was easy to install with all parts fitting as they should. I would highly recomment the Sojbergs Elite series of benches. These benches are comparable with the best.
