Pros: simple to set up at home, easy on the eye, does what i want it to
Cons: lock's security is questionable
"This is a good quality solid tool cabinet. Visually quite appealing.
3 smaller drawers at top are great for easy access to hand tools and 2 deeper ones for bigger, less used items like drills.
Minimal home assembly involves fitting cators (2 lock) and handle (user chooses which side).
A very useful rubber mat on the top to be used as a workspace for tools you're using for a job. Rubber liners for each drawer.
Locking mechanism feels a little flimsy if you are leaving your tools in a public facility but it is sufficient for keeping drawers close in transit."

Pros: quality
"I purchased this product as if had a special deal.
I got the 7 drawer top cabinet and the 5 drawer bottom cabinet both for the price of the bottom cabinet.
Excellent customer service at Rayleigh branch.
These are the ball bearing professional series and that's excellent value for a quality product.
Well chuffed.

Pros: braked wheels, varied draw depths
Cons: only one handle
"This is a top of the range quality piece of equipment that has de-cluttered and organised my garage tools into one place. The different size drawers makes it easy to store tools that already have there own packaging. Would recommend to everyone."

Pros: locking my tools in one place
Cons: all the halford stickers which are hard to get off
"An excellent product - I now have most of my tools in one place and can find what I'm looking for. Assembly is easy - remember to get the wheels the right way round for steering (at the handle end). Drawers open and close easily with the bearing sliders. Locking is easy and the 7 drawer cabinet (which came as part of the deal) fits on top and completes the set.
I would really have liked the Industrial set with the lifting handles but I only tinker so these fit the bill at a reasonable price.

"Bought this along with the 7 drawer unit to fi on top. Excelent and like other people thought there was a rubber mat missing for one of the drawres, it was actually in the next drawer down as the topdrawer had some lables stuck to the bottom.
I will need to get some dividers to stop spanners moving about but otherwise a very good product especially when the sets are bought together when on offer.
Managed to get rid of about 5 other tool boxes and I can now keep almost everything in on place.

Pros: the drawers and their size
Cons: the stickers are too sticky to remove
"Having purchased other Halfords tool trolleys in the past, this one has certainly got new features such as ease of removing individual drawers to retrieve lost tools, the castors are of good quality and the method to fixing them to the trolley has greatly improved, I would recommend the combination that I have purchased to anyone looking for a mid range priced trolley, will be purchasing an additional 4 drawer intermediate tool box with any Christmas money I receive"
