"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."

"I have wanted one of these for a long time but always found them to be overly expensive, I bought this due to the price in the sale and haven't regretted my purchase.
The quality is great, roller draws, lots of space and everything locks up neatly. Overall I am very pleased with my purchase and would definately buy one again even at full price.

"Halfords Proffessional, great product, great price! Wanted a tool chest for many years but never knew what to buy. When I saw the quality of the chest from the proffessional range I really wanted one and when an offer came about on this, I snapped it up. My mechanic friend who has only Snap-on was very impressed witht he size of all drawers, I'm mostly impressed with the quality feel of the runners compared to other brands which are more expensive. All drawers expect one have quality liners, the locking mechanism works and I really couldn't be any happier, except now I have much more space, I want to fill it up!!"

"Is how I would describe my purchase - have been 'thinking about' buying this product for a long time and seeing it 'on offer' was too good to miss.
A well made solid and practical addition to store my ever expanding range of car maintenance hand tools.
As you would expect it is heavy so best to have help in lifting if like me your back has seen better days!"

"Very happy with the Christmas discount and the quality. There are even padded inlays for the drawers. I have this and also the industrial (black) one.
The key did break off on the black industrial one so I suspect the locks are cheap!

"This tool chest was a considered purchase. I was looking for a quality product and this item fitted the bill. The product comes with drawer liners to protect both drawer and tools from scratches. It is well made and looks the part in my garage. It is a system as you can add an intermediate unit as your tool collection grows. Great for DIYer and pro alike."

"I bought this when Halfords had a deal if you bought it with the Halfords Professional 5 Drawer Ball-Bearing Cabinet, plus an extra money off web offer. I reserved on line at my nearest store. They called and text to let me know it was ready to collect but they only had one set in stock and were the display models. The assistant checked that all was ok, but they would have to order the key, so I declined as I wanted a boxed item to be sure all was 100% correct. The store helped me re-order from the next nearest branch. Again I got a call and text to let me know it was ready to collect, when I arrived they took the items out to the car. Overall I thought the service from both stores was excellent, the price was good and the product was as expected. Good value, functional and easily robust enough for regular DIY use. Use a hair dryer to get the labels off and my 9yr old was able to assemble the wheels. Great buy."

"I purchased this 7 drawer chest together with the 5 drawer base chest as they were being offered at a very good price for a large toolbox. I would describe it as a medium range product in that it is well made but certainly not robust enough to be classed as a professional product for use every day in an engineering workshop etc.
The 7 drawer unit which I initially received must have taken a knock in transit and was badly dented at the back demonstrating the fragility of the product. I was still pleased enough with it to accept a replacement.
