Ordered the 4ft version late last Thursday – Delivered early the following Monday (Good Start)
Frankly the quality and the accuracy of cuts and drilling centres, and the general dimensions and construction far exceeded my expectations. Potential buyers – dont hesitate – buy it – you WILL NOT be disappointed. Highly recommended.
I am sure I could not buy the wood for the delivered price of this item. Well done Wells Timber. A+++++++++

I ordered a 6 foot bench on Sunday evening and it was delivered by 9.00am on Tuesday morning. Two heavy parcels.
Assembly was straightforward with the provided carriage bolts, washers and nuts. We used a socket and ratchet which made tightening a doddle. You could use a spanner but it would take a bit longer. No other tools were needed. The finished bench is great: heavy and robust. The integral shelf gives storage space and adds to the overall bracing and stability. We reckon the bench will stand up to any job we are likely to give it. Now have to bolt on a vice.
Assembly is a two-man task.

I bought a 7ft one of these back in February. It’s a great bench. Very strong and sturdy. Well made. I’m thinking about getting another one.

I searched and read reviews online for a couple of months before deciding that the Wells 4ft workbench was what I needed. I phoned-up at 8:30am on the Wednesday and it was delivered by 11:00 the next day. Fantastic No.1. The bench is delivered in 2 packages and both are heavy, which is a good sign. Fantastic No.2. I assembled the workbench in my man-cave in about 30 mins and I was 10/10 so pleased with the product. Fantastic No.3. The sturdiness, ease of assembly, finish are brilliant, and the whole process from ordering to assembly was flawless. Fantastic Nos 4 & 5 all in one. Top, top company.

I bought an 8ft by 3ft bench last year. I use it regularly and love it. It was easy to assemble and a delivery mix up was beautifully handled by the company. I would highly recommend Wells. You won’t be disappointed.
Richard Capstick (verified owner) –
Arrived promptly, easy to assemble, an excellent bench. Strong, heavy duty, and very well made. Not worth making one yourself. You probably couldn’t buy the timber for the price of this product. Highly recommended.
Andy Honey –
Very happy with my new 8 ft bench. My son and I assembled it very easily though it was quite heavy. I bought a shelf too, for added storage. Sturdy, well made and looks good.
Dan C –
Have had mine for over a year. Ordered the 6ft one for the garage as a sturdy work bench. Delivered within 2 days and easy to assemble. Properly solid bench that will last for years. Well worth the money

From my first telephone call to the very friendly, polite and above all knowledgeable Jolene at Wells Timber Products, I knew that this was a business where customer satisfaction was as important to them as well as myself., The quality of their products, level of communication and the overall service they provide was extremely impressive.
The 5 foot bench that I ordered arrived swiftly and safely. It was very easy to assemble, I glued all the joints as I bolted it together but this may be a little overkill on my behalf.
Though it is not a piece of furniture that would be admired by all, I think this bench is going to become a family heirloom, as it will definitely be as good when I’m pushing up daisies as it is now!! Thank you Jolene and Derek from a very satisfied customer.

I ordered two eight foot heavy duty workbenches on the Monday and took delivery on the Wednesday. A word of warning the packages are very heavy and ideally three people would be the safe option. The workbenches are not difficult to put together and both were in place within two and a half hours. For my part the timber used makes a brilliant workbench which is much admired in my workshop. My final compliment is they took great trouble in the wrapping to minimise any possible in transit knocks/damage.
Jon Bennett (verified owner) –
Absolute qualty. Good finish,strong, robust and easy to put together. The packaging was also excellent and protected workbench in transit. Exceeded expectations. Would thoroughly recommend.
Jolanda Pelikan –
Precisely what I was searching for, regards for putting up.
Ian B –
Awesome. You guys kindly made me a bespoke size of 8ft by 4ft bench. Heavy or what! Really impressed. Robust. Even bettter than I expected. Thanks.

I Had two 5ft heavy duty benches delivered last Friday. Heavy packages were a good sign and I soon had them hauled into the mancave. Quick look at the instructions, a half hour with a 13mm socket, a congratulatory coffee and I was done. They are really sturdy and accurately made. The tops are great looking, nice and flat and beefy enough to bolt a big vice or drill press to. Almost too nice to get dirty! As an engineer and keen amateur tinker I am looking at the benches and totting up how long and how much it would cost to have knocked them up myself. All possible but as others have mentioned, I’m not sure I could have saved much and would still be making them for weekends to come! The people at Wells Timber were super friendly and helpful and I cant recommend them enough. In fact I may ring up in a minute and order another smaller 4ft one to sneak in under my wife’s radar using ‘black ops’ funding to bolt my mitre saw on. I love to live dangerously!
Steve Duncan –
Just received and assembled two heavy duty work benches and I am really happy with them. Solid is an understatement. I assembled both the 4ft & 6ft ones on my own in an afternoon, heavy lumps but doable for sure. The customer service is also second to none so all in all a very big thank you.
Colin (verified owner) –
Ordered a 7ft heavy duty workbench which was delivered as promised 4 days later ( including the weekend) . The single package was well wrapped but it was quite a bit heavier than I’d anticipated at 45kgs according to the package. Fortunately I have a heavy duty sack barrow which made moving it easier, and to his credit the driver offered his assistance. Assembly proved as easy as advertised, though single handed it was easier to assemble on its side rather than on its back as per instructions. In use it’s very solid and perfect height. Nest step is secure the engineers vice I have.
Colin Northrop (verified owner) –
Very pleased with this Solid and well made Workbench. Ordered one after seeing my neighbours. It will a shame to use it as it looks so good, did finally fixed my vice onto it after a couple of days. The only minor criticism I had, was that I had to phone to chase as it took over a week to be delivered due to delays no doubt caused by covid. This could have been avoided, if I had been kept updated via email.
Katherina –
Appreciation to my father who recommended this website, the products sold on this webpage are genuinely remarkable.
Stuart Barriskell –
Bought my 6ft around 4 years ago, its a solid pice of kit. Very easy to bolt together as there are only around 4 parts.
I’ve rebuilt a few bikes on it, and easily accommodates my 8″ Vice and 6″Buff on opposite ends. On reflection I should have gone for the 7 or 8 footer just for that bit extra work area particularly if working on body panels and larger parts like swing arms and engine parts.
I’d have no hesitation in recommending Wells workbenches..
Simon Michael –
Great product. Arrived swiftly and easy to put together. If you had to buy the wood at today’s prices and valued your own time to manufacture you couldn’t do it for the price. Wouldnt hesitate to recommend it.
Steve Cawthorne –
Derek Built me a Custom Size bench for my shed. All I can say is wow, proper heavy duty in every way, I was worried that it wouldn’t be strong enough to hold a vice, how wrong I was, Derek also made me a shelf back board for it and it is likewise superb
Thanks so much
Derek Wells –
you are very welcome Steve, thank you.

Peter Cresdee –
Needed a work bench for my shed and found the perfect match on Wells timber website. Ordered it on Saturday evening, assembled it Tuesday morning in ten minutes. Fantastic service. A really nice bench for a very fair price. This purchase has saved me time and money trying to cobble one together myself. I can see myself buying a second bench from Wells as I move all my kit into my shed. I would have no hesitation in recomending Wells timber to my friends based on my own experience. Thanks for a good honest product.
Peter Cousins –
Derek responded to my request for a bespoke 4 ft workbench with super fast service. The quality was first class at a very competitive price and exceptionally easy to assemble . So good in fact that I have now ordered a 6ft heavy duty version. Once again super, friendly service. Thank you Derek, can’t recommend you enough!
Martin Buckland (verified owner) –
Ordered a 4 ft workbench for my jewellery workshop to mount rolling mills and a vice, the overall quality was excellent (some of the drilled bolt holes were a little rough) and super sturdy perfect for my requirements. A very good bench for the price worth a 5 stars.
Artur Chodan –
Good quality benches, quick delivery and easy to assembly.
D Kirby –
I bought an 8 foot bench for my wife’s potting shed. It was only a few weeks before Christmas so I thought I may have a long wait for it coming. It arrived within a few days and it was fantastic quality. We could not be happier with it and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anybody and I would certainly purchase from them again. I used to work in a timber yard so I think I know quality timber!

Kerry Asher –
I looked at various suppliers and the reviews here are spot on. Ordered a customised workbench on Tuesday 21st December and it arrived on Thursday 23rd December! Quality is superb, measurements perfect and it’s really solid. A really impressive workbench with amazing comms and service. No point looking elsewhere – this is the place to go.
Janet Cherrett –
We only needed a workbench top made to a specific size. It arrived this week only days after sending in the order. We couldn’t be more delighted with it. The exact size and very well made. Would highly recommend Wells timber.

Purchased a workbench from Derek. Had a quick phone call to add a backboard as I’m using the bench as an outdoor kitchen. The bench and backboard arrived the next day!! It was easy to assemble and made from quality timber. I’m really impressed. Top quality product, customer service, and delivery. Thank you Derek

I ordered a 5 foot Heavy Duty Workbench from Wells Timber Products on Friday 4th March at about 11.25am . By 2.00pm on Monday 7th March I had the workbench built and in use. The workbench is excellent quality , very sturdy and well made and easily put together. Just what I was looking for and
excellent value for money. So thank you . Thanks also to your excellent carriers, Tuffnells , who kept me informed over the weekend
and completed the actual delivery to Perth, Scotland by 9.00am on Monday 7th March. Your workmanship and overall service from ordering through to delivery are exemplary. It has been a pleasure doing business with Wells Timber Products. Thank you again.

“I had a custom heavy-duty bench made to fit into a tight space in my shed. This was the 4th bench I have purchased from Wells which tells you how much I like their products. The bench, as usual, was well made from sturdy timber. It was easily assembled and, the best bit, fitted exactly into the space I had for it, proving that they worked to my measurements. If my wife lets me buy a 14×10 shed (doubtful) I would definitely come back for more!”
matthew ullman –
Great bench, easy to build even with a dog and niece running around after me. Very sturdy and will be looking at another 4 foot one, plus maybe a 3rd if i can think of a way to increase the top MDF by 200mm in order to accommodate a laser engraver as put some wheels on one of these and will make a great platform for it.
Derek Wells –
hi Matthew, we can offer bespoke options, just let us know what you need. Happy to help. Thank you.
Gareth –
I ordered a bespoke bench on Thursday afternoon and it arrived Monday morning. To be honest I don’t know how derek at wells timber products turns these out so quickly but I’m absolutely chuffed to bits with the product. Everything was totally effortless from talking to derek on the phone with my requirements to the delivery and putting it together. Short and easy instructions are included along with all the fixings you’ll need. A screwdriver, and two 14mm spanner’s, and about 15mins of time from delivery to bench installed. Brilliant product, exceptional value for money, and exactly as described. If you need any timber products then don’t look anywhere else. Thank you very much derek.
Derek Wells –
you are very welcome Gareth. Thank you.
Peter Rowe (verified owner) –
Really very pleased with my 5ft workbench. Beautifully made with great accuracy, went together perfectly. Almost to good to use, but I’ve got over that now. Bought and mounted a large vice on it which is really stable. Wanted that in my life for ages! ( so useful )
Could have made something up myself but why bother if you can afford it.
Robert (verified owner) –
Ordered the 8ft workbench for my garage which was delivered very quickly as promised. This is the second workbench I have ordered from Derek Wells as I was so pleased with the first 7ft one that I ordered some years ago and can attest that they are very well built and solid as a rock. All the bits and pieces necessary to put it together were present and correct and the simple instructions are easy to follow. A word of warning – these larger benches are very heavy and would be tricky to put together on your own, but once you’ve got it done it will last a very long time. Thanks Derek, very happy customer.
Kate Lewis (verified owner) –

I ordered the 5ft workbench. Delivery was the following day and I erected the bench very easily. The quality is excellent and will be a great addition to my garage. A good strong product and I would definitely order again
Mark Graham –
I asked Derek and his team to build me a specific size workbench to fit in a smaller space, it also had to be taller than usual. They did an excellent job. The bench was delivered very quickly and was easy to assemble with all holes pre drilled. I would have no hesitation in recommending them. From the first email to enquire to the delivery of the product they have been fantastic. Thanks again Derek
Steve Edgington (verified owner) –
Probably like many I planned to make bespoke workbenches myself for my new workshop as I’ve done before. Given time constraints, I thought I’d have a look at what I could buy and after ignoring all the usual flimsy tat from big brands came across Derek. I ordered 2 x 8ft workbenches, which duly arrived really quickly – and I have decided I will never make my own again. The assembly was really simple as everything was perfectly cut and drilled : and these are really solid and really high quality. I then got Derek to make a custom bench on locking swivel casters. Again, quick delivery and beautifully made. So finally to the thorny subject of cost. You can buy cheaper, you could arguably make some more cheaply : but don’t think of the cost of these, consider the value. These are incredibly well made, absolutely solid and therefore, in my opinion absolutely worth the price paid. I cannot see that anyone would ever regret purchasing these – and great service thrown in too. Extremely satisfied customer
