Just gave away my 35 year old Snap on Rollaway to my kid. Have tons of tools all over the floor. Like the pretty one at Lowel's but don't really need the frig.

Any opiion's



Don't buy the lowes one... I recently was looking for one as well at home since I had 2 boxes and wanted to move into one large box, I looked at that again but it's crap as far as quality goes.. it looks pretty and if you hardly use your tools and, don't plan on loading up the drawers it may work for you... but check the reviews, the slides break often, and the locking mechanism fails which is not serviceable... I think it has a 3 year warranty, and they will send you replacements but after that?

I looked at used snap-on boxes which are great but everyone wanted an arm and a leg for them of course and most were older boxes that were dented and banged up from use over the years.. I looked at craftsman, again but wasn't really impressed.. I looked at harbor freight and found one I liked but they do not make a top box for it. It had some good reviews and I looked at it in person nice box at an awesome price.. of course only 11 drawers...

while I was at sears, I found they had another line of boxes from Viper Tool Storage, I didn't know much about the box, but it was on sale, was the size I was looking for, and had a lifetime warranty on the slides, locks, and casters basically all your wear items.. they have many different boxes and options there. I contacted the company that makes them, and the owner responded back to me the next day. yes they are made over seas but they are a nice quality box.. especially for the price it was probably 1/4 or less then the similar size snap-on I have at work. They can also custom build you a box. And they said they could make on in the US and even custom build it for me but it would cost alot more..

Here is a article I wrote about mine with a pic 18 drawers I think though on mine..
