For all 10MW Plus members
In this one I get hands on with the first production example to leave the factory, of the Benchdogs Ultra MFT Workstation Medite, a premium MFT workbench system from Benchdogs.co.uk. Enjoy
Medite Ultra MFT is 31Kg - I was quoting the shipped weight š¤¦āāļø - and ~33Kg for the Valchromat. Still hefty, and beyond the recommended 26Kg single person weight lift limit, though how they can tell you're single is another matter...
I purchased this bench from Benchdogs.co.ukĀ but I did receive a discount; you can also receive a discount by using the offer code 10MINUTEWORKSHOP at checkout for 5% off across the board at benchdogs.co.uk. As a Benchdogs affiliate I may earn from qualifying sales at no cost to yourself; links to featured products are provided as a convenience, but if you prefer, a search for the product name is usually all you need.

For brevity, remaining notes - related videos etc.. are in a PDF below.
Very nice bench there! I certainly want to see how it does with long term use/wear & tear. Personally, I wouldn't mind the weight as I would rarely be moving it about. The huge benefit is the compatibility and availability of all the other accessories. I look forward to seeing more.
Yesterday I noticed Powertec came out with a competitor to Kregās ACS (MFT) table. At $550, It is priced $50 less.

The reviews are mostly about the smaller Workmate clone. Not much real-life feedback on the product.
A general question about the videos that are āAd free Member Editionā:
If I only watch the Public equivalent video, am I missing out on anything?
Itās been my habit to š the Public version of the Friday videos to give Peterās channel a boost in the YouTube world.
The comments are also insightful and entertaining. š
Read all the comments here on YT, Peter and it seems a very split bag of users. Cost seems to be the biggest issue for some and the weight next inline. It definitely is;
Can you afford it and how are you going to use it.
As commented, would you leave it unattended on site, no way and you might want to, if you can afford it link three together, so real range of opinion altogether. Fantastic appraisal video as always.
