Slacker, the Snap-On one only costs $1475.90.

That top bin would be useless for me, It would be too stacked with junk to open.

Ditto.

But in that case, remove the lid and you've got a sweet cart at a great price.

Thanks for posting this ad.

I wasn't able to find any online coupons for this price.... it was in the parade section of the sunday paper. I picked one up, assembled it and moved over my most used tools..... it will make working on the 928 much easier. It also opens up several drawers on my big toolbox to put away more stuff.

Years ago I had a really nice Snap On box.... it was huge.... I replaced it with a nice similar husky box from Home Depot, and it has served me well for 9 years. ( I actually sold the snap on box for a profit.)

I think this cart is a good addition. About a year or so ago, I saw a nice MAC cart but I couldn't justify the price....

I picked up a cheap 3 piece box from them for about the same price about a year ago. I mean, it's obviously not Snapon or even Craftsman quality, but it looks nice and much to my surprise, it actually does allow tools to be put inside it.

Craftsman and Snapon make some nice pieces but holy cow.

Yup: I can afford either a generic box and good tools or a name-brand box and crap tools. Easy choice.

I would highly recommend this cart over the one posted: http://www.harborfreight.com/five-dr...art-95272.html

I have one; it is wonderful for the price. Sometimes it will go on sale for $169 or so, then with a 20% off coupon (my local store takes them), you can get it for $135-ish. Helluva deal.

In that vain I would not recommend this one:
http://www.harborfreight.com/11-draw...net-67421.html
I got it on sale for $119. It got all my tools off the floor, but I've had to
fix the rail guides twice already. So not all cheap tools are created
equal, some are good value, others are just cheap junk.

This one IS good- If you go by the store, have a look.
http://www.harborfreight.com/13-draw...net-90320.html

For a home garage, plenty good- also has optional top box & side cab. Maybe not snap on, but
for the money you save over a snap on or mac box you can buy another 928

That's actually the same one I picked up. It's definitely cheap, but it looks good and I haven't had any problems yet. Use it for wrenches, sockets, screwdrivers, and weird tools (Mityvac, AC filler, screw extractors)

I looked at this one... but it was taller than I wanted as well as 2 times the price...
