Chris LaValley: Bought for full size washer and dryer stacked. Sturdy, holding up great. Only complaint would be it would be nice to be able to remove the handles so they’re not sticking out.

Moose ManMoose Man: During a basement remodel one of the projects faced was re-painting the concrete floor in the laundry area, under the washer and dryer. This (of course) meant having to first move both appliances. Although not that difficult to do, in the process it became apparent why the previous floor paint job had become so badly scratched-up… the washer and dryer’s metal feet literally scraped-off the paint.

The reader is probably wondering: “Why do they have to be moved?” Frankly, not often… once a year (minimum) to permit the city water department to perform an actual meter reading (which happens to be directly behind the washer - see photo) to confirm the remote reading. “Only once a year?” Yes, but still… why go to all the trouble of prepping and re-painting only to have it scraped off? Thus, began the search for some method to prevent this.

The obvious solution was some type of semi-permanent dolly or platform with wheels. Although Amazon and others offers such appliance bases, they were either too small to accommodate the appliance’s footprint, or (to me) looked less than up to the task of supporting a machine filled with water and/or wet clothes spinning...

Maurice: Rails and corners are well made. Casters are decent quality. Bolts are too mild of a steel. The cam levers don’t stay locked like they should. They need a flat spot to keep the wheels out. It’s not an expensive item, but for pennies more, it could be made much better.

RB: Great product for the price. Only a few weeks of use but no issues - I do find that it drops quickly so you've got to really control the lever(s) when you lower it to avoid a quick drop - this is hard to do with your foot. I've started to take the weight off the base by pushing against the bandsaw (which is what I use it for) as I lower it - the other option is to control the drop by using your hands to slowly lower the levers.

bendwriter: I recently decided to put four of my tools on mobile bases. Because of the different sizes of the tools, I ended up buying two from Jet (Jet 708118 JMB-UMB Universal Mobile Base) and two from HTC (HTC2000 Universal Mobile Base). Since all four showed up at the same time, I was in a position to make a head-to-head comparison of them, and decided to write about it. As a result, you'll find this same review under both the Jet and the HTC Universal Base listings.

Upon Arrival:

All four bases were purchased from Amazon with free shipping, and all four arrived within just a couple of days via UPS. The HTC base pieces were wrapped in bubble wrap inside a cardboard outer box, and the Jet bases were in Styrofoam cutouts inside a cardboard outer box, so nothing sustained any shipping damage.

The next day, before I even unpacked anything, UPS showed up again with a bag. Inside were two pieces of thick, perforated steel about 18" long - no note, no explanation, no return address, nothing. It turns out that one of the Jet bases was missing these two pieces. Someone - I assume at Amazon - caught it and rectified it, literally before I knew they were missing. When I examined...
