Not that impressed:
I've had this for a few years on my Jet Contractor table saw. I'm not that impressed with it for the following reasons:
1) After a year of light use one of the rear wheel locks stopped working.
2) The swivel wheels are flimsy and don't lock well. This makes the saw rock when pushing larger lumber through it.

Stable and easy to assemble.:
Purchased the base to go along with a Jet 17" drill press. I needed a mobile base that was stable, and would allow the press to be moved about my crowded garage. Assembly took ten minutes.
