Best Mobile Power Tool Bases of 2025

"I find this base works very well. It rolls easily and lifts and lowers without hassle. I have it on an old Delta contractors table saw, and it fits perfectly. However, I wish all 4 wheels could pivot 360 degrees for better maneuverability in my small shop."

"After setting up my new saw, I realized I needed to move it around occasionally. I chose this base due to its solid reviews. It's well made and priced lower than competitors. I'm in my 80s and used a lever to set up the base, and it works as promised!"

"This mobile base has been great for my Delta 14" bandsaw. Adjustments are straightforward, but the bolts through the frame restrict perfect fitting. A couple of wood shims solved the sliding issue. Overall, for the price, it’s a reasonable alternative to pricier options."

"I found the Portamate PM-1100 to be a great choice for my miter saw. I assembled it easily using some 1x6 pressure treated boards and a 2x4. It rolls nicely, and I no longer trip over the frame. Just a tip: drill the holes a bit larger to make assembly easier!"

"Using this mobile base for my Jet 6 inch jointer was a breeze. I had no problems with the hardware and appreciated the different screw lengths. However, I believe it’s essential to have DIY skills and the right tools for assembly."

"Though I think this is a well-made base, I haven't put weight on it yet. The instructions were confusing, and the parts didn't match counts. There were enough for assembly, but extra parts would have been helpful."

"I recently got a large 18 inch bandsaw and was impressed by the Shop Fox mobile base. It’s incredibly heavy-duty and allows the machine to glide easily around my shop. The instructions to build it under the bandsaw were brilliant, making setup hassle-free."

"I purchased this base for my 675 pound Delta table saw. Despite a small hiccup during assembly, I couldn't be happier. It's extremely stable and easy to move. My father, who owned the saw before me, was amazed at how effortlessly we could relocate it now!"

"I own a Grizzly G1033 20 inch planer weighing around 850 lbs, and this base has exceeded my expectations. It was super easy to assemble, and once the planer was on it, moving it around was a breeze. I have complete confidence in its performance."

"I was amazed at the weight of the box when it arrived; it was quite a struggle to lift! All the components feel very heavy-duty, and the large wheels are a great touch. The welds look well done, and everything fit together nicely. I found the assembly process to be quick and easy."

"Finally, I have a cart that can handle some serious weight! I have my cast iron table saw on it now, and it works perfectly. I can move the saw around my shop with no problem now."

"Initially, I was skeptical about needing a rolling base for my JET BAND SAW. However, I realized I wouldn't be able to move it without some help. The rolling base is solid, though it’s not completely rock steady. Assembling it was a piece of cake."

"I bought a second one for my 200-pound Delta drill press. It works GREAT! The foot-flip levers make it easy to roll the machine and lock it down without any hassle. This Bora base is an ideal solution for my needs!"

"I found the instructions were a bit iffy, just drawings, but I managed to assemble it in 45 minutes. Now, instead of dragging my 40-year-old Craftsman table saw, it's easy to move around. I really don't understand the low star reviews!"

"I can't recommend Bora mobile bases enough! This is the third one I've bought for my tools. They're quality products, easy to assemble, and add a lot of stability to my equipment!"

"I find this mobile base to be fabulous and heavy-duty. As a retired furniture maker, I appreciate the sturdy steel tubing and welded corners. It took me about 30-40 minutes to assemble, and I’m completely satisfied with its performance for my 775-pound bandsaw. I’m even ordering another one for my 24-inch disc sander!"

"After using several mobile bases, I purchased the Bora base for my 400-pound band saw. The closed section metal rails and large bolts give me confidence in its strength. However, I found the instructions lacking; they didn’t mention the spring-assisted legs until after assembly. Still, I highly recommend it for heavy power tools."

"This base is incredibly sturdy and adjustable. I faced a couple of challenges, mainly with the fixed wheels that don’t allow for smooth movement. However, I can cut the bars to adjust the size if needed. Overall, it’s a solid investment for my setup."

"I recently bought the Laguna 14" bandsaw and opted for the BORA universal mobility base instead of the pricier OEM kit. The four-wheel design makes it stable and easy to move. I found the construction to be very sturdy, easily supporting my 270 lb. bandsaw. Assembly was straightforward, though the instructions could use some improvement. Overall, I would highly recommend this product for anyone needing a quality mobility base."

"I’ve owned three of these bases, and I’ve learned that assembling them requires a bit of thought and adjustments. I add extra bolts and a plywood inset for better stability and weight distribution. While I doubt the 650 lb. weight capacity claims, they are great for mobility, and the foot pedals effectively lower the wheels onto rubber feet to reduce vibration. However, I wouldn’t recommend exceeding 250 lbs. at max extension."

"I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of this product. It was easy to assemble and holds my 500 lb. table saw securely. The ability to move it around my workshop is fantastic, especially when I need to save space. Overall, a very practical solution for managing heavy equipment."
