1) Submitted by John Flatman, from Eldridge, IA on 5/26/2010 Customer Rating: Good price good value.

2) Submitted by Mike on 4/13/2009 Customer Rating: I bought this package mostly for the hold downs. I assumed that the plastic dogs would be as good as plastic can be in this capacity. They held down a piece of wood that allowed me to do some surface planing on it. So they definitely performed as they should. As they are plastic, I will not put extreme pressures on them to ensure maximum life. The hold downs work very well. I used them to hold down a sharpening board and another board that I planed. No issues at all. My bench top is almost 2.5 inches and they grabbed well and released as they should. Overall, I gave these items a Very Good rating and I say they are a very good value also.

4) Submitted by John Barrett, from Oreland, PA on 11/26/2007 The hold-fasts are already in constant use. When I use them in conjunction with the non-skid mat, they're an excellent manual system to control a work piece while scraping, planing, sanding, etc. A really useful tool set at a really great sale price. I'm glad that I bought two!!

5) Submitted by Dave H, from League City, TX on 10/9/2009 Customer Rating: I know a lot of you see a rating of 3 and think this is junk. PLEASE DO NOT CONFUSE MY RATING WITH POOR QUALITY! The product is exactly as I expected. Nothing more, nothing less. Pros: Tenacious grip from the holdfasts, nice finish, secure low profile dogs, fair sized router mat, good price. Cons: Bench dogs are made of plastic which is a Potential durability problem, painted cast iron in direct contact with workpiece can mark workpiece. Suggestions: For the price, it's fine. Just don't be a hamfisted clod using this stuff. Epoxy a protective pad out of leather or something similar to the surface that meets the workpiece to keep from denting, scratching, or transferring paint to it.

6) Submitted by Dave, from League City, TX on 12/15/2009 Customer Rating: After my initial review, I have had a couple of months to work with these pieces. The bench dogs are simply amazing. They do exactly what they are supposed to do. I did not expect the cheapo plastic to hold up under any sort of use, but they do. The holdfasts, which is what I bought this set for in the first place, are a bit of a disappointment though. This set came with 2, and I finally needed to use both of them yesterday, so the one that had not gotten used yet got slid into the dog hole, and a light tap with a rubber mallet and the one piece became two. Not good... However a quick call to Rockler Customer Service, and my replacement is on the way.

7) Submitted by Richard Greer, from Marion, IA on 12/8/2007 Customer Rating: I bought this primarily for the hold down clamps. The dogs and the pad are nice to have so buying the package seemed smarter than just buying the hold down clamps. One of the hold down clamps broke the first time I hit it with a hammer. I did not hit it that hard. I assume (not sure) that Rockler would replace it if I pursued the issue - - but I don't want to deal with the hassle. Editor's note: No hassle to replace the broken hold down. Just call our customer support at 800-279-4441 with order info and a replacement can be sent right out.
