I am in the process of redesigning my workshop.

In the process, I will be building a new auxiliary bench. My plan is to make a laminated top with replaceable 1/4" hardboard as the work surface.
My question is in the lamination.
I want the top to be approximately 1 3/4" thick, or 1 1/2" plus the hardboard.
One way I'm reconsidering is 2 layers of 3/4" MDF
Two is one layer of 3/4" MDF and one of 3/4" Plywood
And three is 1/2" MDF, 1/2" Ply, and 1/2" MDF
I'm not planning on using any holdfasts in this bench, but I am going to install a wagon vise on the end with a corresponding row of dog holes.
Would there be any advantage or disadvantage as to one method or another?
