Harbor Freight 72" Roller Cabinet...

Holy **** Mr. Peabody!!!!!!

Someone hopped in the wayback machine and found this.....

True, but this thread still seems relevant because it's an extensive discussion of this legendary cabinet.

Go rent a truck with a liftgate for a couple hours.

I actually didn't know rental trucks with liftgates were commonly available, but I just found a couple places in my area that rent them for reasonable prices. Thanks for the idea!

I noticed today that the Series 2 72" cabinet is available on Harbor Freight's site. Now to find a coupon!

As far as I can tell, the only difference between the Series 1 and Series 2 72" and 56" is the logo.

shocking if it is . Have they not changed the lock
Better drawer latching system or at least strengthening to current style finger bolt latch would of been good, adding proper thick top rubber and a stainless top option would of been nice .
No idea why they not marketing improvements, seem good at writing gibberish but not useful fact, hardly worth a series 2 badge if no proper improvements been done .
Still a pretty good box if gets a 999bucks coupon .
Seems all boxes on 22" depth frame I like see HF stock spare slides and other basics like plastic latches and lock barrels inc keyed alike sets, would help sales if people could see basic stocked spares .

Played with one Saturday. Only difference I recall is that the right bank has its own lock now. Everything else seemed the same including price.

There are two other differences I failed to mention - The drawer liners are different. They appear to be much nicer than the previous ones.

The previous version had a lock for the right bank.

I looked at one at the store on Sunday. One of the drawer latches was broken.

I box was missing one latch when I got it home.

That tiny plastic latch is not impressive and it will break (drawers will go wild) - plastic (dry-rots) crumbles...

Next up is the top drawer it is all wobbly/flimsy.

Also, it is reported from others the tread on the wheels (rots falls off) - now with NO drawer latches = box dumping over & injury.

Other options are available for not much more money...

Xin, your posts might be worthy if you cited facts vs. regurgitated hyperbole. Especially as it relates to harbor freight, which a majority of your posts clearly show an axe to grind. Said from a Razorback to another: be better.....

Does the existing coupon for the series 1 work for the series 2 box?

 

[Mr_B]

No you'll need coupon for 64167 model

Does anyone have any word on wether the 72” series 2 will be getting multiple colors like the rest of the boxes? It would be sweet to have this thing in black.

Not sure when these colors were rolled out but there are 6 colors as of today
