It's holding up great. My first attempt was 3/4" laminated particle board, but the presses started to crack it and pull through it. That material is what now makes up the lower shelf.

I also moved the problematic presses mostly to "strong" (elevated) mounts and used steel plate to reinforce under the large caliber single-stage press.

The finish will occasionally flake off if I scratch it or it comes in contact with harsh chemicals, but it's also easy to sweep powder or brass shavings off of. I've touched it up a few times.
