Incident: Harbor Freight has been stringing me along for 7 months. I purchased your 60in 4 drawer wood workbench,and had a number of problems with defective parts, I understand wood splits, no quality control. Ive been remodeling my garage to fit; which includes electrical so it's been a while, my point is I've only opened these drawers less than ten times, and 2 of the 4 drawers do not function, the slide exploded and as a result cut my finger. I can send photos of the blood still on the drawers and the cut. Also the pieces of slide that came apart. You need to assist me in this problem as I am more than certain that the other two drawers will do the same and I am already upset about your product injuring me; which, is just absurd for a drawer. I do Not wish to send back a fully assembled bench, but I would bring in the drawers or slides, If I get hurt again, this would bad for you and me, and I'm certain you want to fix a Dangerous product.
