I should have done it years ago. It was easy to put together and works great. I really enjoy the way the wheels retract to stabilize the saw for use. Review: Nicely built base for the money - I had ordered this WEN MB500 to use under my jointer. The jointer weighs probably 200-250lbs. However when I placed the order it was out of stock, so desertcart gave me the "we'll send you an email when we know when it will ship" notice. I wasn't in a big hurry, and this was the cheapest mobile base in this class on desertcart, so I figured I could wait a couple days. Well, a couple days turned in to a couple weeks and by the time I finally I received it, I had acquired another base for the jointer and ended up using this one on my planer instead. The planer only weighs maybe 150lbs. Now that it's here I am happy with the investment though. To start, this is an all-steel construction with the exception of the wheels and some spacers. It comes with 4 long rails, 4 short rails, two fixed wheel corners, two lift wheel corners, and enough bolts to give a lot of flexibility on how to put it together. I like it better than the ones that just bolt to a sheet of plywood that you have to cut to the proper size, although you could certainly add plywood to this one too if you wanted. That makes for a lot of flexibility and allows using it for different tools in the future should you decide to trade up. In my case I needed a 21x26" base. 26" is about the longest span the long rails can manage by themselves, and it only allows two adjacent holes to be used, which seemed like it wasn't an ideal situation if you had something really heavy on it. I ended up adding the short rails and a couple washers as reinforcement, partly for strength, but mostly for storage of the parts in case I decided to use it on something else some day. If I needed to go any longer, then I would have needed to use a combination of long and short rails joined together to get more length. The lift arms seem sturdy. I added some grease to the mating surfaces during assembly to make sure they operate smoothly. They seem to stay in the raised position ok, but it's not quite as positive a lock as you might like. One of them kind of "snaps" in to the raised position, but I think that's mainly because there is a little lump in the weld that works as kind of a detent. The other one is a little less positive feeling and seems like it could easily get knocked down if you kicked it while moving. It never released on me, so hopefully it will continue to hold firm and I'm just being paranoid. Since my tool wasn't that heavy, I also stood on the end with the levers and even with the combined weight of the planer and I (> 300lbs) they operated easily. With my weight centered over the lever end, the actual weight being lifted was probably comparable to what it would be with a 500lb machine with it's weight spread more evenly. If I could give 4 1/2 stars I might knock off a half star for the "feel" of the levers, but really it's being kind of nit-picky since they haven't actually failed to hold yet. If they do, I may come back and update my review, but for now I am quite pleased. When you factor in that this is about the cheapest "tool class" mobile base on desertcart, I think it was a great buy. ## Features - Turn your stationary tools into mobile machines, helping you to get the most out of your work space - Perfect for band saws, table saws, tool chests, cabinets, safes, planers, sanders, jointers, drill presses and more - Fits square base configurations anywhere from 11.8 by 11.8 inches up to 35.4 by 35.4 inches - Fits rectangular bases up to 51.2 by 19.7 inches in size - Features two fixed casters, two swivel casters, two foot-locking brakes, and a two-year warranty ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B077QQSLLM | | Best Sellers Rank | #25,405 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #1 in Mobile Power Tool Bases | | Brand Name | WEN | | Caster Type | Rigid, Swivel | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (2,039) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00044459425007 | | Included Components | Mobile Base | | Item Dimensions | 35.4 x 35.4 x 4.6 inches | | Item Type Name | WEN MB500 Heavy Duty 500-Pound Capacity Universal Mobile Base for Tools and Machines | | Item Weight | 15.5 Pounds | | Manufacturer | WEN | | Model | MB500 | | Mounting Type | Plate Mount | | Part Number | MB500 | | UPC | 044459425007 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** WEN - **Caster Type:** Rigid, Swivel - **Item Weight:** 15.5 Pounds - **Mounting Type:** Plate Mount - **Unit Count:** 1.0 Count ## Images ![WEN Mobile Base, Universal Heavy Duty, 500-Pound Capacity for Tools and Machines (MB500) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Jeik34TcL.jpg) ![WEN Mobile Base, Universal Heavy Duty, 500-Pound Capacity for Tools and Machines (MB500) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71H5bXpe+tL.jpg) ![WEN Mobile Base, Universal Heavy Duty, 500-Pound Capacity for Tools and Machines (MB500) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81io7VyvsTL.jpg) ![WEN Mobile Base, Universal Heavy Duty, 500-Pound Capacity for Tools and Machines (MB500) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81eO9L6BIOL.jpg) ![WEN Mobile Base, Universal Heavy Duty, 500-Pound Capacity for Tools and Machines (MB500) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71RBqcierIL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: I would like to purchase two of these to attach together to have swivel/lock casters and feet at both ends. Is this likely possibe?** A: It would be possible but this base does not have swivel lock casters. The levers lift the casters up so frame rests on feet instead of caster. The casters do not lock. **Q: Will this fit thepowertec ut1002 stand? apparently not** A: I believe that your stand is 32-inches X 22-inches so this base will easily fit your Powertec UL1002 stand. The specs say it will fit up to a 35.4-inch square stand. **Q: When will this ship? It was listed as Prime and one day shipping!** A: slowed due to new policy **Q: will this work with a wen lathe stand?** A: If the stand is within dimensions listed and weight limits it should work. I've seen videos on YouTube using a Wen workbench caster kit and 2X4s to make a mobile base for a wood lathe stand. I've a few machines mounted on the base your asking about, and they work well. However, I've have decided to go with the workbench kit for my wood lathe stand because it's a little over 4 feet long and I think it will be a better fit. Hope this helps. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Should have brought it years ago. *by A***E on April 17, 2026* I bought this to move my DeWalt table saw around my garage more easily.

The planer was heavy enough that I did not want to always have to carry it to my workbench. I wanted something that I can put to the side when not in use but easily move it out as needed. This served that purpose. It was fairly easy to assemble. It is adjustable for the width and length you would need. It is not as maneuverable as I would like but it works. The base itself is very well made and seems like it will hold up well. I will update if anything changes. ## Frequently Bought Together - WEN Mobile Base, Universal Heavy Duty, 500-Pound Capacity for Tools and Machines (MB500) - WEN Thickness Planer, Two Speed, 13-Inch Spiral Blade, Benchtop (PL1337) - WEN Multi-Purpose Rolling Planer and Miter Saw Tool Stand with Extension Rollers (MSA658T) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/51379690-wen-mobile-base-universal-heavy-duty-500-pound-capacity-tools](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/51379690-wen-mobile-base-universal-heavy-duty-500-pound-capacity-tools) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
