It's normal if you are referring to ball detent that keeps the drawers closed. Look at my video below.

put a little weight in there and they will smooth out.

The little detents in the back are very new that it requires a little bit of force. Eventually they will wear out to the point that when you roll your cart across the shop with heavy drawers that they open on their own occasionally and you will wish they were new and hard to open again.
Fortunately snap on has lifetime warranty and will replace for free when that happens.

A lot of them are like that when they are new until thye have some weight in them.

the bluepoint cart I believe is the rebadged sunex cart with struts on the lid, and yes the drawer guides are less then stellar but for a lower end cart they are pretty decent

I think so too but if look closely, the Sunex has individual locks on each drawer versus the one lock on top at the back with the locking lid. Plus Sunex also offers a 5 drawer verion.

I can't say it's the sunex for sure, I just knwo that all the bluepoint is rebadged import tools, the drawers are all modular the locking mechagnisim is a bit more complex

put some tools in it today still not too impressed with the drawer retainers tried oil on them made a small difference so now im hoping that they just wear a bit over the next few weeks and im still waiting for my plate decal to arrive from my snap on man to finish the lid off looks a little bare with nothing on it especially in the dark green colour
