I'm fixing to order a Macsimizer MB1902A 22-drawer box yellow with black trim. is there any problems or concerns with this box. I have 2 mac tech 1000s that I absolutely love, I was just making sure the macsimizer is a great of a box as I am hoping

Best Tool Box I have ever owned. Got mine about 2005. Also have a MB1850.

Both are loaded to the hilt and function quite well.

The only issue I have had with the MB1902 is our Forklift is not big enough to lift it loaded on to a flatbed to relocate it to my new shop. Riggers will be here on the 27th to grab my Tool Box, Mill, Lath and a Brake Press.

Now the MB1850 was easy to move with my loader. Was the first thing in the new shop.

My suggestion is: By Now. You will love it.

The couple of Macsimer's I have had come through the shop were quite impressive. Well built for sure.

I personally would put them on par with KRL's

The Tech 1000's I have had have also been nice.

ive priced both the mac with a SS top and locker and a snap on 84 inch epic with a SS top and locker. Snap on wouldn't order me the color I wanted unlike mac is willing to do because Snap on already has a box in storage and with a $1,700 discount snap on still wants $7000 more than the mac box. it think its ridiculous

The 2 main differences between the two are the Epiq is 3 inches deeper and uses a handle latch system instead of detents. IMHO not worth a 7k difference. Plus the Mac is 4 inches wider I believe so I guess that would be a wash. Like I said before I so want the M 7432. 74" wide and 32 deep. And the came out with a hutch for it. In person it is ridiculously huge.

What kind of price did you get? I get a price of 11k with a hutch and ss top. Free light on the 84. No trade in

The locker was 3k I think

I have around a $9-10k trade-in. the snap on box with a $10k trade-in plus $1,700 was going to have $7,500 on snap on credit. My mac box is only going to have around $3,500 on mac credit. and hes seeing if he could throw in the SS top

You need a better driver lol. That's a terrible deal. That's 19k right? That's pretty much full msrp

I like the tech series. I've never seen a macsimizer

yeah, I know my snap on rep is a douche. I had a really old pair of snap on needle nose with the wire cutters in the center. and they were bent. they were the kind where after considerable use the snap on logo would rub off. anyways he said they weren't snap on and wouldn't warrenty them. I had to call customer service and they were more than happy to send me a new pair.

I love my 1860, its 9 yrs old and still like the day i got it. The only thing was the "lock tab" on the slides is discontinued and the newer slides just arent the same.

Macsimizer is the best box you will ever own, I have a very large snap-on now and chances are it will be my last but I do miss my Mac box, makes snap-on look like craftsman
