Our verdict

The Sidekick is the folding bench reduced to its essence: about 13 lb, a 24 x 32 in top, and legs that store inside the tabletop so the whole thing hangs on a hook between jobs. The 300 lb capacity honestly limits it to assembly, repair, and staging work, and the top flexes under vise type loads. Judged as the bench you will actually carry to the job instead of the bench that owns a corner, it has no rival here, and it links with the Pegasus when a project grows.

What we like

  • About 13 lb, the lightest bench here, and the legs store inside the tabletop
  • 24 x 32 in surface at the same 32 in height as the WORX Pegasus, so the two link together
  • 300 lb capacity covers assembly, repairs, and tool staging for most home projects
  • Clamp dogs and link locks included for holding work and joining tables

What to watch out for

  • 300 lb capacity is light duty; heavy pounding belongs on a fixed bench
  • The top flexes more than wood or steel under concentrated point loads
  • Smaller surface than the full size folding benches

What owners report: WORX Sidekick Portable Work Table WX066

Synthesized from recurring themes in long-term owner feedback.

Most praised

  • The carry weight is the revelation: owners grab it one handed for jobs all over the house
  • Legs vanishing into the top means it stores in spaces other folders cannot use
  • Linking to a Pegasus at a matched height turns two small tables into a real bench run

Common complaints

  • The 300 lb ceiling is honest, and it shows under genuinely heavy work
  • The top flexes under concentrated loads like a bench vise job
  • Tall users wish for a height adjustment it does not have

Who it is for

Apartment dwellers and small garage owners who need a work surface that disappears completely.

Storage is the headline

Every folding bench claims to store flat; the Sidekick stores its legs inside its own top, so the folded package is one slim panel that slides under a shelf, behind a door, or onto wall hooks. At about 13 lb it is also the only bench here most people will carry one handed without thinking about it.

Working surface and the Pegasus link

The 24 x 32 in top stands at 32 in, the same working height as the WORX Pegasus, and included link locks join the two into one longer surface. Clamp dogs come in the box for holding work. For apartment repairs, flat pack assembly, and tool staging, the surface is genuinely sufficient.

The 300 lb honesty

WORX rates the Sidekick at 300 lb and the top flexes under concentrated loads, so engine blocks, heavy vise work, and serious hammering belong on a fixed bench. Within light duty, assembly, sanding, painting, repair staging, it is stable and unbothered. The rating is a scope statement, not a flaw.

Questions, answered

How much weight can the Sidekick really hold?

WORX rates it at 300 lb of evenly spread load. That covers assembly, repairs, and tool staging comfortably; concentrated heavy loads like engine parts belong on a fixed bench.

Does it connect to the WORX Pegasus?

Yes. Both stand at a 32 in working height and the Sidekick includes link locks, so the pair forms one longer work surface for bigger projects.

Where do the legs go when it is folded?

Inside the tabletop itself. The folded bench is a single slim panel, which is why it stores on hooks or under shelving where other folders cannot fit.
