Thoughts on the Stanley 56?

[Revere Cycles]

I saw this Stanley 56" combo at my local Home Depot today. It looked pretty nice from afar, but I couldn't get close because I had to get to another job. I did a search here but nothing came up. Has anyone purchased this set, or checked it out firsthand? I am curious to know how it compares to Stanley's other tool box lines.


Thanks in advance!

Looks to be a SPG International super value box. Not the worse, not the greatest. Shop around under the International name to see what the best price is.

Good price on it, as stated before it's not the best box nor the worst box. Lots of space for $1200.

Qualitytoolsforless has the same combo (in International branding, not Stanley) for $1700.

I'd be mighty tempted, but I'm not hurtin' for another box right now.

I feel fairly confident the box shown is a true 24" deep box vs the 20ish deep HF. While I'm not going to say the box posted is better then the HF because I honestly don't think it is any better, overall storage is probably very close. It would really come down to which drawer arrangement one likes better

The Stanley is a 56 inch wide combo (top and bottom). The Harbor Freight 72 bottom is wider, but not "bigger".

I just found this thread after I started a new one. It's 799 now at stores if you can find them. I missed one by a day!
