Tool Box

Anyone have one of these? I know you get what you pay for but I'm not a professional wrench so I would just use it in my garage. Also anyone have an alternative to these? I think this one is on sale with an additional $100.00 off.

I've seen this and other "US General" brand toolboxes at Harbor Freight. Their construction looks pretty good. Not as good as Snap-On but hardly anything is, and Snap-On's prices are astronomical. Comparing to some other brands like Craftsman and Kobalt I'd say the Harbor Freight boxes are just as good maybe even a little better.
Some stuff at Harbor Freight is really junk, but some stuff isn't all that bad.

My Father in law bought this one. http://www.harborfreight.com/11-draw...net-67421.html
Its held up well. Its a little cheaper construction than say A Craftsman ( Kennedy) box. The draws stick alittle if they are filled with a lot of heavy stuff. The one you are looking at looks a lot more heavy duty. As you said you are not a Pro. Should hold up good for weekend wrenching. I like all my tools in one organized box. Heres a coupon just in case.http://www.harborfreightusa.com/html...mages/20_c.jpg You can use the coupon on sale items.

I'd bet its better than the newest Craftsman I have. I've been really disappointed in it. I don't buy Craftsman tools anymore. IMO the quality has fallen and the warranty isn't like it used to be.

I am a fan of Craftsman since a little tyke but saw a very large roller chest/top combo for under $200.00 at Home Depot the other day. Metal was "light" but the roller arms seemed to be OK quality. Nice black with brushed silver drawer fronts.
