Pete,
I think they are all much of a 'muchness' the place I bought this one from also sells red and blue ones.
There is room under the benches (headroom) just that I have tended to use the underneath as storage space
Bearing in mind it will mostly be used for light lifting 100-300lbs max I shall change the casters from the cast iron to something "nicer"
and of course replace the front legs with shorter ones. Just to give it more mobility in a small space.
I shall keep the cast iron casters and the long front legs in case I decide some time in the future to move my lathe and mill.
I borrowed an engine cane many years ago and I remember it had a sort of mechanical safety operated by a ratchet this new one just relies on the cylinder
no safety mechanism (perhaps it is just my old age )
