    All About LISTA Cabinets

    I find this troubling as well. I can understand that used cabinets aren't covered by the warranty. However, not supplying parts for boxes that are more than 5 years old does not sit well with me, especially for a design used for 40+ years.

    Hand tool recommendation ... (Proto, Snap-On)

    Thanks for the opinions. I am not sure why I have the desire to go with one brand and stick with it.
