Customer Reviews: Ball bearing drawers are nice, but don't drop the box! October 15, 2009 Robert C. Mcauley (Burlington, ON) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I was looking for a 3 drawer tool box, and found that most didn't have ball bearing drawers. This does, and they work well. You can really notice a difference.
However...
If you fill 3 drawers, the unit gets pretty heavy. Mine fell from the hood of a car I was working on, and damaged one of the open drawers. I was able to get things bent back into shape, but it is not perfect.
I also have an issue with how the drawers lock into place. It looks like they are closed, but you have to give each drawer and extra push so they click into place - or else they can slide open when the lid is closed. Even though they look closed, they are not.
If I had to do it again, I'd get a smaller 2 drawer unit, and keep it light.

Thin/Cheap Metal Tool Box September 3, 2009 V. Averett (Salt Lake City, Utah) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Amazon had great service with fast shipping....that's the positive.
I purchased this toolbox because of the great reviews, and as long as the tool box is sitting safely on a shelf, it wouldn't be too bad. However, the first time it tips over, or is accidently bumped into, the thin metal will dent. After I filled the box with tools, it slipped off of my porch step (about twelve inches), and buckled the metal, and bent the whole box out of shape. Now the drawers won't shut closed, and has become a hazard when carrying around. This is something I should have expected from a MADE IN CHINA product, and wouldn't have purchased it if I had known. Spend the extra $ for a good MADE IN USA product (if you can find one now days).
Great Tool Box/Chest for the Money August 28, 2009 Mark L. Mason (USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased this tool box to store a variety of model ship building tools. The three pull-out drawers do not have any dividers, which is perfect for storing tools of various sizes. The drawers even have a rubber-type lining, which is really nice. The top section, which is hinged at the back of the chest, is somewhat deeper than the drawers and works well for storing larger items. Buy this tool box and you will be extremely satisfied.
Awesome home tool box; value for $ May 24, 2009 buntu (Austin, TX) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Bought this on Amazon after researching quite a bit for a ~$50 home tool box. Compared Craftsman, Snap-on, Grizzly and Homak; Homak came ahead in terms of quality of construction, features (like Ball Bearing drawers - which is really nice) and of course price.
Bought the "Red" version and simply love it. Go ahead and get one - you wont be disappointed.
