Having kept various tools and pieces of DIY equipment scattered in various boxes and cupboards around the home, it was good to at last bring them all together in one place by using this excellent and good value Stanley branded toolbox.
I have a bit of a lack of storage space in my house, no garden to speak of and no shed so I have found this large capacity toolbox made of sturdy plastic perfect for my needs. As well as having enough space for all of the usual tools and various other DIY supplies, it stacks well and fits very nicely in my understairs cupboard.
The unit has three tiers; two deep boxes which are excellent for accommodating power tools (including their batteries and chargers) and other larger items and a middle tray that can hold other tools such as hammers, screwdrivers, spanners and so on. The three boxes are held together by good quality plastic latches and the lid of the top box has decent metal latches; these all feel robust and snap into place in a satisfying way. There are also a couple of flip top compartments on top of the toolbox which you can fit smaller tools or fixings in.
Once everything is stowed nicely in the toolbox, it can be pretty heavy but the extendable handle and large, robust wheels make it easy to manoeuvre your equipment about. The top box has a padlock loop built in which could deter casual theft but perhaps not anything more serious. The bottom two tiers have no such security measure but to be honest, I’m not that convinced that locks on these types of toolboxes are really that effective anyway.
I’m not personally bothered about the security of this product as I keep it indoors anyway but if you need a secure setup for your toolkit perhaps another product might suit you better. I would also say that while this toolbox is solid enough for use in and around the home, again, for professional use a heavier duty option might be better.
Overall, I’m really pleased with this product. It is a pretty robust toolbox with plenty of space, is portable and is a good price for the quality.
