    Not to belittle your situation, but I just jumped on their website
    and looked up the JA-700, the description reads: 

    "JA-700  Champion" Setters Bench has been our No. 1 selling bench. 
    It is constructed of an industrial grade melamine board with a
    durable maple finish throughout.  Features 2 full depth and width
    aluminum lined drawers, 3 tool drawers, 2 armrests, 2 mandrel holes,
    & a pullout board.  The originator in adding a recessed stainless
    steel plate measuring 6" x 6" on the work surface." 

    There is nothing in this description about solid Birch, and an
    industrial grade melamine board is nothing more than a fine particle
    board with a laminate on top.  I would not just write to the
    company, but I would call them and tell them of your dilema. 
    Especially if one of their agents told you it was solid Birch. 

    Now, looking at the descriptions, the JA-410 kinda catches my eye. 
    Has anyone bought this one yet?  Any feedback?
