Menards cabinet differences (other than size) between 36" vs 41" vs 56"?

Does anyone know whether the sheet metal is thicker or in other ways superior from say, the 56" cabinet vs their 36" or 41" ones? Same ball bearing slides used in all of them?

Just wondering what the structural differences are among them. I assume the 56" has extra crossmember supports inside but that's to be expected given the longer width...the wheel casters on the larger boxes are bigger than on the 36", I'd have to think?

On the 41" the wide top drawer and the two bottom drawers have dual slides on each side. The 36" does not have any dual slides. Caster are the same on the 36" and 41".

I have not seen the 56" in person, So I cant comment on them. I know a couple guys on the board have them, try searching, you may find out more on the 56" box.

I want to get one of the 41's myself.

I just went to Menards to buy the 41" bottom chest and they only had the floor model available...they knocked off $60 and I rolled it away...$429 out the door.

I believe the 56 is a couple inches deeper then the 36 & 41.

I have the 36" top and bottom and like it except for the drawer detents that are hard to open in winter.

26,36, and 41 are 18 1/8" deep and 56" is 20" deep as per catalog. 56 also has 6 casters vs 4. Have you seen limited edition 36"? has griplatch style drawer stays. Looked like a sweet box.

I have the 56 inch box... Love it! Plenty sturdy! I use Snap On boxes a lot and my Masterforce is fine other than the drawers are stiff in cold
