Yes. Total height is 46.5" I'm guessing this could change by a hair depending on the caster spring sag.

I received mine a couple of weeks ago, but haven't had time to write up the review as promised. I'll get on it and post lots of pics.

And yes, it's huge.

checked the price on sunday it was 1599.99, called and checked today its now 1999.99. if i see the price drop i hope i can get my order in.

Price dropped again to 1599.00. You CAN use a coupon over the phone. I verified with Harbor F. in California. The only question I have with comparing this box to the Sears or Northern tool version is how many slides per drawer are there on those boxes. Drawer weight capacity is not very high on the HF version compared to similar other boxes.

For the money it looks like a good buy though.

FYI- I've done a LOT of research on this box and was told box is made from hot rolled steel, not cold rolled (supposedly inferior ) - but proof is in what owners have to say not what speculation is.

I know where one of these boxes are still in the crate near me at a HF store but I may buy it so I won't say where yet. I looked at it and it is impressive.

I just made a phone order for one and got the 20% coupon discount. With shipping and tax it came out to $1503.

Why didn't you go all the way and slap a Snap-On Badge on it???

Snap on boxes are thief targets. If you are in a shop, would you rather rip off a snap on box, or a craftsmen?

Click on the link posted above and it shows the full set, with the bottom not greyed out. Look below and there are like 5 thunbnsails. Click the one with the front of the box and you'll see it. Says it was posted by 'test'. It also says customer image over the corner of the photo. Could have been a GJ member upload. ???
