From the manufacturer

Remember WEN?
We've been designing and distributing high-quality and affordable power tools for decades. Founded by Nick Anton back in 1951, WEN originally made its mark by helping bring tools and electricity together (putting the power into power tools). Our research and development team played a vital role in helping to develop a variety of common everyday tools such as the chainsaw, the electric soldering gun, the electric jigsaw, the electric engraver, and the knife and wet wheel sharpeners. WEN even pioneered random orbital technology – the technology seen in most polishers, waxers, and buffers today that gives cars everywhere the streak-free shine they deserve.

Since then, our expertise has expanded to encompass a wide variety of products, including drill presses, lathes, bench grinders, nailers, miter saws, hand tools, generators, and cordless power tools, to name a few. By 2001, only 50 years after our humble beginnings, we had already sold over 50 million consumer units. By 2021, we had sold nearly 80 million. Today, WEN's headquarters can be found in West Dundee, Illinois. Our goal is to help woodworkers, DIYers, and artisans across the world execute their wildest imaginations.
Woodworking
Since 1951, WEN has been helping woodworkers complete projects of all shapes and sizes with our extensive line of benchtop, handheld, and floorstanding woodworking tools.
Generators
Whether you're on the job, at home, or out camping, let power be one less thing you have to worry about. Our vast line of inverter, dual fuel, and traditional gas-powered generators means we have the exact wattage and feature combination for any application.
20V Battery System
Power your life with the WEN 20V Max Battery System. Any of our 20V batteries are cross-compatible with all of the products in our always-expanding line of WEN 20V handheld tools.
Lawn and Garden
We don't just stop at helping you in the shop. Let WEN take the work out of yard work. From pressure washers, to maintenance equipment, to log splitters, WEN has you covered for every season of the year.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Product at great price
Verified PurchaseI used this on one of my floor woodworking tools. Easy assembly, multiple lengths and widths. All hardware is included. Better than using 2x2 studs. The only issue is that the two swivel wheels are on corners and independently pushed down. It would be nice to have a single wheel that is in the middle of the rack. But it looks good, well made and does the job.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well constructed
Verified PurchaseOrdered one, and then ordered two more. Easy to put together, well made parts, at a fair price. Using them for items that weigh around 75 lbs, they handle it without a problem and make it easy to move items around my shop.

4.0 out of 5 stars WEN Mobile Base MB500: A Garage Game-Changer!
Verified PurchaseThe media could not be loaded.
I snagged this bad boy specifically for my WEN Band Saw. I was sick and tired of wrestling that thing around my workspace. The promise of adding smooth, locking mobility to my band saw was too good to resist. Initially, I'll admit, I was a bit taken aback by the fact it arrived as a flat-pack project. But, after diving in, the genius of the design became clear. This isn't just a one-size-fits-all solution; it's a customizable platform that can accommodate a wide range of tools. The adjustable frame is seriously impressive.
Now, I'm not going to lie, I'm not exactly known for my patience with instruction manuals. My ADHD brain tends to glaze over when faced with walls of text. Thankfully, I was able to assemble the entire base in under an hour, mostly by eyeballing it. The instructions themselves were decent, a step above the infamous Ikea manuals, but the black and white images were a tad ambiguous in a few spots. But hey, if I can do it, anyone can.
The real magic happens once you get your tool mounted and rolling. The MB500 transforms your stationary equipment into a mobile powerhouse. Suddenly, my band saw wasn't just a tool; it was a nimble, easily maneuverable asset. I can now position it wherever I need it, without any of the back-breaking, awkward shuffling I'd grown accustomed to. This thing is a genuine game-changer, and it's going to significantly increase how often I use my band saw.
However, it's not perfect.
I did encounter one minor hiccup: the locking mechanism on one of the wheels is a bit stubborn. I have to apply extra downward pressure directly on the wheel to engage the lock. It's not a deal-breaker, but it's a minor annoyance.
Overall:
Despite that small issue, the WEN Mobile Base MB500 is an absolute must-have for any serious DIYer or woodworker. It's sturdy, adaptable, and makes moving heavy tools a breeze. If you're tired of wrestling with your equipment, do yourself a favor and grab one of these. Your back (and your sanity) will thank you. This is a solid, well-built product that delivers on its promises. I'm genuinely thrilled with it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works great under my 12" bandsaw on steel stand
Verified PurchaseEasy to put together and the design is adaptable to many types of bases. I use this under my 12" traditional Delta-style bandsaw on a steel base with four angled legs. Game changer for the layout of my small shop. Very impressed with the quality at this price point.
