GaryD: My son and I just purchased a Jet 8" helical jointer which weighs in at over 350lbs. We ordered the universal base on cost and flexibility. It arrived before the jointer in its on packaging which was in good condition. putting it together was a breeze with the different prefabricated slots. Assembly works best with two people although one person can get it done, it's just a little finicky. There are four corners which have to be assembled by sliding the end of one corning into the open slot on the adjoining corner. Easy peasy until you add the last corner as it will bind if it is not in exact alignment with the opposing side. This was a little frustrating at first because the pieces fit so well together, you just have to work at it. Additionally, two of the casters are fixed and the other two swivel so make sure you have them aligned to match how you intend to move the equipment it will be supporting. All casters will lock and once done, the jointer is pretty much immovable. For heavy equipment or other similar things, I recommend this mobile base. It allows us to move the jointer around our workshop with ease.

Real Deal: The JET JMB-UMB Universal Mobile Base has been a fantastic addition to my workshop, offering both mobility and versatility for my heavy machinery and equipment. This mobile base has made moving my tools around the workshop a breeze and has truly transformed my workspace.

One of the standout features of this mobile base is its adjustability. It can be easily expanded from 18" x 18" to 28" x 28", making it compatible with a wide range of tools and equipment. Whether I need to move my table saw, planer, or bandsaw, this mobile base can handle them all with ease.

The build quality of the JET JMB-UMB is exceptional. It feels sturdy and robust, capable of supporting heavy loads up to 600 pounds. The solid construction gives me peace of mind knowing that my valuable tools are secure and stable while in motion.

Setting up the mobile base was straightforward. The assembly process was well-documented, and all the necessary hardware was included. Once installed, the base glides smoothly on its heavy-duty casters, allowing me to effortlessly maneuver my tools across various floor surfaces.

The foot-operated levers for raising and lowering the base are a thoughtful...

ToolMan: This is one of the best mobile bases available today and it has been for the past several years. Easy to assemble and adapt to most machine bases. Rolls easily and great for DP's. Has a low center of gravity for tall tools. Ve had several over the years and the quality is always the same. Hopefully Amazon continues to carry this product.

Christopher Lee Schmidt: I needed a base for my Jet 16OS open stand planer. I have a couple HTC 2000 bases and they are, while good products, more off a pain to assemble and adjust and I didnt like the look of the HTC 3000 so I went with this Jet model. This model had the weight rating for the planer so, even though it wasnt the one Jet recommended for the planer I bought it to save the 50 or so bucks in price. I figured if it didnt work well I would just use the base on another tool and pick up the more expensive Jet base, but I didnt have too. This one is maxed out on size with the planer, but it holds up well and doesnt seem to be flexing anywhere along the frame. And it literally took more time to take it out of the box then it took to put it together. I am pleased with the product and like it better than HTC 3000.

Robert P. Lawton: I love these mobile bases! I have three of them - one for my belt/disc sander; one for my router table; one for my scroll saw. As I have acquired each of these machines, I've researched all the other mobile bases I could find, but none (in my opinion) measures up to the Jet mobile base, at least for my needs. It's super easy to put together (no tools required); easy to adjust; maintains the power tool's position level and low to the floor; has two locking casters (locks are easy to activate and de-activate) and two swivel casters; and is relatively reasonably priced. Operation of the above machines does not put a lot of lateral force on the caster locks, though. I seem to have read one or more reviews where folks thought the locks didn't hold well enough when their particular machine was under use. Maybe that would be the case with a table saw or jointer, but I have had absolutely no problems with the holding power of the locks.
