Best Tool Chests & Cabinets in 2022

Stanley 037025H 50 Gallon Mobile Chest Review:


THE BEST trunk ever This trunk is ideal for horse show competitors who travel frequently. When I decided to buy this trunk, I shopped VERY carefully. Because it had the highest 50-gallon capacity with wheels, I ultimately chose it. But I was overjoyed to learn that not only does my trainer use this very same trunk for traveling to horse competitions, but so do a few of my other fellow horse show fans. Great locks, by the way. Wheels are essential. All of your little stuff fit perfectly on the tray inside. Everything is kept in this trunk, including boots, grooming supplies, saddle cushions, buckets, bridles, fly sprays, etc. The only thing this trunk is missing are cup holders for your drinks at the top, but I believe we can do without that.



Seville Classics UltraHD Rolling Storage Cabinet with Drawers (UHD20205B) Review:


This rolling cabinet has really pleased me. Without the need for "beat to fit," all the panels and parts fit together perfectly. The thickness of the frame and exterior panels together makes for a powerful, highly solid cabinet. It was delivered undamaged and was extremely carefully packaged. Be careful that the bundle weighs just over 100 pounds.The panels' and the drawers' visual appeal comes from their polish. The front cabinet's bar has a polished center and very attractive ends that are matte from sandblasting. When you want them to, the drawers stay closed. The wheels' substantial diameter makes rolling quite simple.The only caution I would want to provide is what some others have already said: everything needs to be put together! There are a gazillion screws, panels, and other components. Although construction is extremely simple and all the panels are very well labeled, be ready to screw A LOT. Get your best screwdriver so you won't have to use the provided 5-cent screwdriver (Wiha to the rescue!).I built it together by myself over the course of a leisurely couple of hours/beers. There were a few times when having an extra set of hands would be beneficial but not essential. One small problem I ran into was that I wasn't able to tighten two of the billion screws all the way because a few of the pressed-in inserts the screws go into became jammed and knotted up. It's not a major deal because there are numerous screws in this item (about a gazillion).Anyhow, I adore this cabinet and will definitely get a second one later this year.



Stak Rack | 4 in 1 Painter's Accessory Tool | Stacking Design | Paint Interior or Exterior Doors, Trim & Kitchen Cabinet Doors| for Contractors & Homeowners (12) Review:


When I do any trim work as a finish carpenter, I frequently get asked to paint doors. I've just completed spraying 10 doors, but I only got 2 sets, so they'll only cover 6 doors (3 doors per set). I was forced to paint the other doors the traditional way. The traditional method is to place the door on buckets, wait for it to dry, and then repeat on the opposite side. Spray one side of the Stak Rack, then flip it over, and spray the other. The additional benefit is that the doors can be stacked on top of one another without contacting one another.



Goplus Rolling Tool Cart, Steel Sliding Drawer Tool Organizer, Black Review:


I didn't need to use any of the directions at all because assembling this toolbox was so simple. I am on the shorter side of life, therefore the toolbox's height is ideal. I adore how the lid portion glides open, eliminating the need to remove items off the top if there are any. Things don't fall off as easily because of a little lip at the top that is inset slightly. It operates similarly to other toolbox brands in that the drawer portion cannot be opened without the lid being raised. The drawer cannot be closed with the lid closed either. Additionally, if you need to open the other drawer while the first one is open, you must close the first one first. I suggest positioning the two wheels on the side opposite from where you'll put your handle. I wasn't considering that because I was so eager to assemble it. Moving will undoubtedly be simpler. Overall, I'm satisfied with my buy.



CRAFTSMAN Tool Chest Combo with Drawer Liner Roll, 26-Inch, 5 Drawer, Black (CMST82763BK) Review:

Homak 2 Door Wall Cabinet with 2 Shelves, Steel, GS00727021 Review:


First of all, this is a fantastic cabinet in the big picture. Having said that, it does have certain drawbacks, albeit they are, to be completely honest, only minor ones. Let's start with the packing itself. Amazon distributes these in the box they came in, which is amazing, but the problem with that is that the wrapping is really thin. Very thin cardboard with padding and foam sheets inside to guard against dents and scratches. Since the original packaging is so thin and the package itself is rather hefty with all the contents, it's really simple to have a bent corner (something many others have complained about). I wish Amazon would double box this or something to prevent damage. When my first package was opened to be inspected, it had several panels with bent corners and several extremely significant dings and scratches. The box had been re-taped numerous times and had one complete corner exposed. There was no issue; it was returned and replaced. When it's put together, you can't even tell that the replacement ever arrived bent. It has to be manually bent back using pliers.Assembly: When it comes time to assembling this, you'll note that the individual panels are relatively thin and shaky. 38 bolts and nuts, I think, are required to join the panels together. Make sure you have a power drill. I used a Ryobi 4v Tek4 portable drill, which is compact and works perfectly for this task. The numerous nuts and bolts were attached quickly by me; if done manually, it would have taken much longer. Additionally, I had a second pair of hands help me with the assembly, which I would highly recommend. Yes, it is possible for you to complete it on your own. Simply put, having an extra set of hands is quite beneficial.It does have 2 shelves, but I just utilized one of them because, depending on what you want to store inside, it can seem a little crowded if you put both shelves in.Final thoughts: Not a bad cabinet at all for the price. However, I deducted one star for the shipping wrapping. Amazon obviously has room to improve. Oh, and it's not a common lock and key; instead, each cabinet comes with a special set of keys. With just one set of keys, you won't be able to open any other cabinets than the original one (if that makes sense). When fully built, they have a decent appearance and feel solid enough.I'm thinking about getting another pair; perhaps I'll be able to do a video review the next time.Hope this was useful.



Keter 240762 5 Drawer Modular Garage & Tool Organizer, Black Review:


I choose a plastic set of tool chests since, in my prior experience, painted sheet metal used in those inexpensive sets of metal drawers is prone to rust and can eventually be readily damaged.The plastic is of decent quality. The drawers are little smaller than anticipated; while great for hand tools, they might not be able to accommodate some larger power tools. Keter has produced a single drawer version, although it is not offered on Amazon.It is at least 4.5 stars, but the manufacturer deducted 1 point for the manner they packaged the wheel attachments. They are placed haphazardly within the bottom-largest drawer, and the square rod must constantly bang against the drawer while being transported. As a result, the front of a brand-new set of chests has a slightly misshaped dent and a decolored area. (View the images.) It is not merely a coincidence because I ordered two of these and they both had the exact same problem. Due to the excellent Amazon CS, I ultimately chose to give it a 4 star rating.



Apollo Tools 2-Drawer Heavy-Duty Steel Chest for Maximum Organization with Ball-Bearing Opening and Powder Coated Finish in Pink DT5010P Review:


I started by learning how to use the boxcutter. The boxcutter is a bit heavy but so far robust; to unfold it, slide the metal button up towards the APOLLO. The blade pushes out and extracts just fine, but a little oil would definitely help the sliding go more smoothly. Press the tiny black button next to the edge to switch out the blade. Wiggle the old razor out while you're holding it down and slide the new one in. There are two more razors included with this item, and they are kept in the pink pocket. You can find a pink tab by looking underneath the boxcutter where you grab it at the very end. Pushing the pink tab will open the compartment storing the extra two razors, whether it is folded or unfolded. If you need to know, this boxcutter uses an SK5 for blade change. I'm grateful for the boxcutter's side clip, which I can use to fasten it to my belt or slacks. Even though the clip is tight, everything you attach it to will be held in place. You'll be alright as long as you don't apply too much pressure when you attach the boxcutter. Good overall product. Additionally, since the majority of individuals own the Pacific Handy Cutter S4, your boxcutter will stand out in the office and you'll be less likely to have it stolen or borrowed and never returned. Lol.



Giantex 2pc Mini Tool Chest & Cabinet Storage Tool Box Rolling Garage Toolbox Organizer with Top Chest and Sliding Drawers, 17.9" X11" X35.8" Review:


Okay, just remember that it's a "Mini" and don't anticipate a fantastic tool storage container, and you should be fine.The total thing is 36 tall "tall when the casters are in place. I would never bring this to work since the other customers would make fun of you. I'm 5'7" and it comes up to my waist "It is unquestionably mini, therefore. But is it really worth $75 shipped to your door? It gets a qualified "yes" from me.What is appealing?the cost, of course.For its size, the bottom storage unit is surprisingly adequate. Actually, the shelf comes in rather handy. On the shelf, I have a work lamp, a 3/8 drill, a wind-up extension cord, and various miscellaneous items. Although the handle is terrible, it is excellent for hanging a drop cord from.When the lid is closed, the top drawers close with a latch.The paint and color are respectable. It has some texture.It is easy to park anyplace because of its size.What is there to dislike?The top box rocks on the bottom box because it is not square.Pegboard appears to be useless.The quality is ok. The drawer pulls on the top box are flashy and unattractive, the metal is thin, the casters are average, and the handle is terrible.There was plenty of area for banging around even with the Styrofoam blocks inside the top box, which was inside the bottom compartment and was where mine was located.Only 3 hammers can fit in the top box drawer.In essence, you're not deceiving anyone about what you have.The conclusion, then? This, in my opinion, would be fantastic for making jewelry or wire crafts. While the majority of my equipment remains at my shop, in more professional tool storage, I use it personally as a remote work station in the house where I may keep some instruments. I'm in the odd position of either needing two of these or one bigger pair because it's not *quite* as big as I need. Since I no longer feel ashamed, I believe I will get another of these.If it weren't for some small, low plastic baskets I bought at Dollar General or a similar store, I'm going to say that I would appreciate this a lot less. They are a useful feature because they essentially give you more "drawers." To get a sense of what you can accomplish with it, look at the pictures.
