I was learning more towards the 700 version and comparing it to the Kreg. My thinking is that old saying that goes "its better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it.". So the extra features that comes with the bigger brither can just sit there until one day when a surprise situation calls for their use.
Thanks for review! For more practical use for the garage, would you rather have a toughbuilt quickset workbench or have these sawhorses as a jobsite table?
Glad you liked it! If you will be working with some larger materials (maybe 2x4 etc), a couple of these sawhorse and plywood top works great. For me personally I would rather use the toughbuilt table for most applications as I have a couple of them connected together. I don't think you can go wrong with either one, it just depends on what you will be working with on the top. Hope this helps.

Great review! Short and straight to the point. Really appreciate the specifics especially pointing out the markings on the legs when adjusting. No worries if not, but would you happen to know the difference between the C650 and the SH60? Thanks again for such a simple and thorough review. 👍
I do not know which model I have, but I HATED it. There is an order as to which leg folds up first, and 50% of the time I got it folder in the wrong order. You have to make sure the feet are in the correct orientation to get the legs to fold up. If the sawhorse is on its side, the feet will not orient properly. They are not very durable. If you open the legs too far apart, the metal would bend. The only benefit is that they are compact when folded up. In a nutshell, I hated folding it up and they do not seem very durable. When I am on the job site, I don’t want to focus on the sawhorse. Regret wasting my money on it.
Yea it took me some time to get use to which leg needs to get folded up first and which one opened up first. On the one I have it shows a label pointing to which leg to open 1st, open 2nd which helps. There are some give and takes for sure to have the convenience of being able to collapse when done.
Yea I noticed that as well. I'm guessing they have it slightly larger so it can accommodate variances in wood especially with pressure treated wood absorbing moisture.

Thanks for taking such an in-depth look at our Sawhorse! We're proud of the ingenuity and innovation that went into them.
Keep up the good work. I have been impressed with every ToughBuilt product I own!
The handle is in a stupid place. Why would you put it on the work/cutting area to get destroyed. Lol

You will be happy with the 700 as well. I agree you never know when you may need the extra features!

The only difference between the C650 and SH60 is that the SH60 does not have pivoting feet. Glad I was able to help, thanks for watching!
I’m sold
Glad I was able to help!
Best
Agree!
These are practically identical to the Husky sawhorses for anyone wondering.
Thanks for sharing!

The gaps for the 2X4 is to big

2x4 measurements can vary, theres no standard.
Nice review.👍
