harbor freight 72"

[junkyardwarrior]

I'm going to have to buy one for work. I have one at the house and love most everything about it other than it's weight. That sucker is stout and hard to move around.

Anyone know any discount or coupons for the HF 72"? Probably going to order in the next week or so.

Here’s a current one. The 999.99 coupon is fairly regular on these.

I brought one home Monday night. I can say from first hand experience these things are tough as hell. Needless to say while unloading the thing from the bed of my pickup one side dropped to the ground off of the tailgate while the other was suspended. Not a bit of damage!! Super impressed. Loving this box.

Glad to hear you had no damage. I’m picking up a 44” tomorrow morning. I’ve got a utility trailer, so hopefully I won’t have any trouble getting it unloaded.

I have a 16ft trailer and access to multiple different trailers but I bought the box on a whim and didn't want to wait, one day I will learn some patience!

I actually considered getting a 44" and then eventually getting another, but I liked the height of the 72". I am sure you will not be disappointed!

I’m sure you already have this Dwight but just in case. [emoji1360]

I actually have this one. Not sure they will refund the $20 difference I paid on Dec. 30. ($449.99).

It’s worth a shot since you haven’t even taken delivery of it yet.

Going to try, I’ll just end up spending the difference on a couple of additional things I want to help organize my garage.

That’s not a bad plan. I wanted to get some of the wrench organizers they have that have the Allen wrench organizers as well but they didn’t have any when I got my box.

They will refund as long as you have reciept and less than 30 days

 

[DwightS]

They did refund the difference and I ended up spending it and a few dollars more.

HF needs to make a top box for this. At that point I'd buy one.

A top box for the 72 would be great, but then I would have to buy another lower 72 so I can keep one as my "desk top" in the shop.

What they should of done was made an addon for the 56" box to make it a 72" fitment .
A hutch probably be the big seller but while ICON going I can't see them wanting expand US Gen in a clever way ...

I just put a 26 & 44 top on my 72. They fit great. And you won't need a hoist or crane to get them up there like you would a 72" top.

The 44's are $429 this weekend

Would you mind posting pics on how this fit?

Can you buy additional swivel casters for the 44’s? I want to get a pair of them t put under a 9 1/2’ maple bench top I had made.

I have a 72" at home and love it. The place I work at is moving to a MUCH larger shop, the old tiny shop just didn't have room for a bigger box, so I stuck with a 20+ year old Masterhand 40" top/bottom set and it's FULL. Yeah I am going to use the 999 coupon for sure. That's less expensive than I bought my original 72 for in 2015. I've used mine at the home shop daily and have even used it as a step stool to replace lights in the shop, etc, have not had one problem out of it. The bad is that it's SUPER heavy (even unloaded) and I have no fork lift at the house so unloading and uncrating that thing was a real pain. But we got fork lifts at work so it won't be no problem for the new one. Just getting it to the new place might be interesting though, may use the trailer instead of just the truck this time.

I would assume you could buy the blue swivel casters, (swap wheels if color difference concerns you) and mount them up. I know that works for the 5 drawer carts. I plan to give it a try before I get it too loaded.

I've since added the 14.5" side drawers on the left side of the 72" roller. It makes a nice place to set all the tools down after a job is done so I can wipe them down before putting them away.

I asked him the same question in a different thread, and he graciously responded:

Hope he doesn't mind my reposting... @dagofast if you want me to take this down, please let me know.
