I don't like any base that is supposed to hold items that are heavier than the base itself. I've got one of those cheap USB microscopes that came with a plastic base that falls over if you even breathe on it. Totally worthless. I've even added lead ingots inside one of my cheap bench top instruments because the weight of the power cord hanging off of the desk would pull the whole unit off the table.
Things for holding small tools etc. aren't so much of a problem though as long as they don't get too top heavy when they are filled up. And little silicone pads/feet can help keep things from sliding around too much.
