Looks nice, I have seen this box in person and have to say it's pretty nice. http://www.harborfreight.com/roller-cabinet-44-13-drawer-gloss-red-industrial-uality-68784.html For the cost of that Craftsman you get alot more storage with this one! They usually have coupons for it just over $300 in magazines. Sorry but I can't afford to buy either one for ya!

Old school craftsman tools used to be a lot better quality. It seems anymore the craftsman name is slathered on just about anything. I got a craftsman halogen lamp for Christmas a few years ago and it broke the first time I used it. The toolboxes are nice though, just get the ball bearing drawers.

I have this one and I absolutely love it. High quality, thicker steel than the Craftsman, and the price is right.

Www.garagejournal.com is your friend. Craftsman boxes are overpriced crap anymore. Those Harbor Freight 44" and 56" boxes are incredible deals. They're tanks. My next box will be the 56" because of the sizeable worktop.

Craftsman is being destroyed by KMart/Sears. Most tools are offshore China made now. I'm snagging any US made stuff where I can. There's SMOKING deals on the Industrial Line stuff right now at Sears Outlet. Look into it if you need anything.

This is coming from a die hard Craftsman guy who has a 44" ball bearing griplatch stack. Its flimsy to say the least.

That's disappointing. I just bought a craftsman box a few years ago and it is decent quality. Guess things went south quick, or maybe east rather.....

I've had mine since 2006. It was supposed to be top of the line short of the three times as much professional boxes. It didn't impress me after I got it home. Wobbly drawers, etc. It works fine don't get me wrong, I just expected more

That's how I feel about everything Craftsman I've gotten in recent years.

My older Craftsman tools are fine but the newer stuff I've gotten has not impressed me, I agree when Ace, Kmart, Summit, and everybody else started selling it the quality went down. I used to be against HF tool boxes but now that I learned almost all tool boxes are imported brand really doesn't matter as much as features. I sse it as all a tool box does is hold your tools, a brand name won't make your stuff run any better or faster!

A few years ago.. the guy that taught me about motorcycles, and got me into racing mine, went through a divorce after booging to CALI....

He told me he wanted me to have his tool box, and I went and picked it up....

Its a craftsman, and its been Used and abused...but I think the quality is decent... No where near BLUE BOTTLE Zs MATCO... but then again, it didnt cost 15-20lk empty... lol
