Just snagged this for $500. Not too shabby, lots of large shallow drawers. Should well for my shop as it won’t be getting moved around.

Thank you

Yeah that’s the crazy thing it is a 24” depth. I have looked at all the box/farm/tool store boxes and just was not happy with either layout or depth. I saw this and and thought it’s just about right.

This is the 66" model I believe. Many people speak highly of it. The long top drawer has a center support slide. I am set on toolboxes for now but I believe the best values are this one, the flat back 52, 56 combos and the 60" mobile workstation from Husky.

60" 62" and 66" all quite good boxes when sale price.
The newer matt boxes slightly thicker steel but older ones can be found very cheap if your local HD doing a clear out .

I've been eyeballing that box. REALLY cheap for how many cubic inches of storage you get. I really like the drawer layout - designed more towards professional tool users and not the occasional home use.

Thanks for the review and photos. I've never seen one in person at Home Depot.

Thanks for the compliments. Yeah it looks pretty good. I will give an update when I get a little use on it. I think it will be fine for my shop, it won't be moved all over the place. Also, I am not super rough on my gear, some guys can break an anvil. If that is you, this would likely not be a good choice. I think if you treat it fair, $500 is not a bad deal. I have a Kobalt in my construction trailer. We have pulled that thing all over the place in the last 10 years with that box in the trailer. That box is fixed to the side and has a protective cabinet around it. With that said, the Kobalt's drawers work just fine. I would say the Husky is similar in drawer bearing feel and sheetmetal gauge thickness. Time will tell.
