Anyone here have the JobSmart (from Tractor Supply) 3 drawer tool box?

https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/jobsmart-3-drawer-steel-205-in-tool-box-tsc3dhbshs19b

How does it compare to the Craftsman 3 drawer tool box?

Are they the same just branded differently? They are identical in size, but the JobSmart is $10 cheaper.

Edit.........just noticed for the same price as the Craftsman I can get a JS 4 drawer tool box:

I have a JobSmart 5 drawer ball bearing lower box (26” wide) with a deep 5 drawer craftsman chest on top. This was my full time box at work (industrial maintenance) for 5 years until I moved to my current place of employment. I don’t need a box like that now (work provides everything but hardline tools). It is chocked full and got worked hard. It still is in good shape and I gave it to my son. My only complaint is that the casters are kinda junk. I had to replace them because they wouldn’t hardly turn when it was loaded. It made it a pain in the ***. Hope this helps!

Never owned the drawer style boxes but I've got several smaller Jobsmart tool boxes. For what they cost you cant beat them. One on my work truck has about 30 pounds of 1/2 drive sockets in it. Holding up well.

Thanks guys. These that I'm looking at are the small portable type of boxes. It will see light use, just a box for in the house so I don't have to got all the way out to my shop to get a tool.

More than likely a horse a piece. I doubt they are exactly the same box since the jobsmart is listed at imported while the craftsman is USA of foriegn parts screwed together. Pretty sure you can get the same box as the craftsman at Walmart under whatever house brand they are using now. The "nicer" toolboxes walmart has in store are Waterloo which is craftsman so I'd reckon the hand carry box is too.
