Nomad Portable welding table - any good?

[Ubique]

I'm thinking of getting one of these as a stop-gap until we have our workshop built and I can get a more permanent and bigger work table, I've seen some of the copies on fleabay etc, and they look underwhelming. The Nomad looks a bit better for not much more money (circa £125) I have a good sized slab of Alu that I do most of my welding at home on, clamped to an old Workmate (the bench, not an actual person) and I have a good sized steel bench at work that I can do my own stuff on at weekends if it's too big or heavy to do at home. I'm looking at mainly TIG work at home, so not massive pieces, probably no more than 20kg. The other benefit is it's portability, not just for storage but for dragging around to 'site' jobs. Is there anything else I should be looking at?
Thanks.

I use a workmate style bench with a plate of something like 5mm steel that just sits on top of it. I have welded on a stud and cable restraint for a flying lead which plugs into my earth return and also a boss which takes my torch stand. The workmate type bench I use goes high enough that I can sit at it on my welding stool for fine TIG work. It works pretty well for me.

Thanks, i'm using a 250 x 500 x 16mm Alu plate with an M8 thread tapped in the side and some 35mm² welding cable attached. It makes a good heatsink and is ideal for small TIG work, I'm loathe to use it for stick welding due to the potential for contamination with spatter. Clamping can require a bit of ingenuity sometimes, one of the reasons I liked the idea of the Nomad bench.
