"Wanted a tool chest for ages as fed up of tool boxes and bags. Went to buy a 5 drawer chest but they had an offer where you buy the base unit 5 drawer trolley and get the top 7 drawer chest free. Couldn't resist so came away with the package. I was surprised how much you can store in the units and now have a well organised tool storage unit. Cant believe I didn't buy one of these years ago. The unit is well made and the drawer runner quality is very good."

Pros: comes with draw liners
"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."

"Excellent product. There was a missing drawer liner and the locking mechanism will let you lock the set without all the drawers being secured - ie the drawer can be opened after the lock is locked.
Came as part of a bude with the bottom 5 drawer chest so I was happy with the total price.

"I just got some of these and they're great however the lock doesn't work how I'd like.
The physical lock just unlocks the top lid, when you lift the lid open full this then lifts some locking bars which released the drawers. This means you can't open the drawers without the lid being open which is no good for me as I have this under a counter and there isn't space to open the lid.
It's really easy to remove the locking bars though, you can simply knock the pins out of the hinges and lift them out. It won't damage the box it looks like it's designed like that it's just not immediately obvious!"

Pros: ball bearings
Cons: nothing
"I bought this tool box because I started a apprenticeship. Although this doesn't have a snap on badge it preforms like it has.
It has ample space and the draw liners are a bonus. The ball bearing draws provide silky smooth draw operation even when full of tools.
I had bought a 150 piece tool kit from Halfords when I was at school and loved it. It was enough to keep my ped on the road.
I have been using the tool box and the tools every day for about 3 months asnd have not had a single problem."

Pros: good quality, smooth drawer action, drawer mats
Cons: hard to remove stickers!
"Overall the box has a nice quality feel to it. Box feels solid and stable with no flex even when you move it and its full of tools. Drawers open and close nicely with a positive 'click' when they are pushed fully home (which they have to be to lock properly). The only critisism I have is that the information stickers on it are incredibly hard to remove neatly, I found applying some gentle heat with a heat gun helped to soften the glue enough to remove them although this was time consuming. I probably would have given it 5 stars if the stickers had come off easier. Drawer mats are a nice touch."
