Very good product. The Montezuma toolbox is very easy to use. I'm a farmer and this product is a very good investment. (Posted on 5/16/12)

i made this purchase cause i was looking for a toolbox that would stand the weather and could be moved from truck to truck. My favorite features are the mobility to move the tool box to different vehicles and the ability to see all the tools when open. IMy only dislike would be the lock it seems to need to be lubruicated quite often one that seals a little better would be good. (Posted on 4/11/12)

I couldn't be happier with the toolbox that we purchased. I can finally organize all of our tools and not spend half of our repair time looking for sockets and the right end wrenches. The construction is even more than I expected. I suspect this toolbox will last us for a very long time. (Posted on 9/19/11)

I have been using a medium Montezuma toolbox on and around the farm for a long time we bought the box in the mid 90's. Since I have went to work as a AMS Specialist (GPS Guy) at the local John Deere Dealership I have to deal with Metric and SAE hardware. The medium box only had room for one size so I upgraded. I just got everything transferred! The lid is not as strong as the other lid and I wish the lift racks had props to hold them up. I like it also so I can easy all my tools before I leave a job so I do not forget a tool. I recommend this toolbox to everyone!! (Posted on 8/30/11)

I purchased the MTZ-LA 400 about 1 1/2 years ago. I am a tech for a large CaseIH dealer. Purchasing this toolbox is one of the best investments I have made. I made a frame with legs to raise it up so I can move easier with a forklift. I really like it and would highly recommend it to anybody! it is a well designed and built toolbox. (Posted on 6/12/11)

After having my toolbox for awhile,I'm loving it. The size is great for rolling around our plant. The SS top is grat. Also would recommend upgrading to faultless casters if you are rolling it around very much. The were great to deal with. (Posted on 5/12/12)

Had my toolbox for a few days,this is a very well built tool box. Came packaged great and they were great to deal with on the phone. Would recommened upgrading to faultless casters the are working great. This Extreme toolbox is perfect size for a Industrial setting. I don't think you can bet the quality for this price anywhere. (Posted on 4/12/12)

This is one heavy duty tool box. In my mind it is better than the truck brands. It comes in a really nice packaging and is perfect! Exactly what I was looking for. I would recommend it to anyone, and have no doubts if you are thinking of purchasing. (Posted on 1/30/12)

I am very pleased with your tool boxes. I have had a lot of compliments. My boss is raving about it. He wishes he had one like this. I was always looking for something like this. Thank you so much for everything. Delivery was excellent to. Thank you again! (Posted on 11/21/11)

I have been looking for a new toolbox for about a year, when I found this one online. I was a not sure about buying one online but after doing some research and talking to customer service about it I decided to buy one and hope for the best. When the toolbox arrived it was VERY well packed and protected. After getting the packing off and looking the toolbox over I was very pleased with the construction of it. It was built better then I expected for the price I would even say better then most of the more well know toolboxes found in most shops. Long story short if I had to do it again I would with out question. The only problem I have with the toolbox is the stop on the top left drawer don’t work when you pull the draw all the way out, I am sure it is an easy fix I just have not had time to check it out yet. One of the things I like best about the toolbox is how sought it is, on the bottom of the draws there is support channels that keep the draws ridged even when there is hundreds of pounds in them, they also still slide in and out smoothly with all the weight. I have recommended this toolbox to a few friends and co-works, for the price and what you get it’s a great deal and you’re not paying an extra thousand or so for a decal that says Sxxx-ox or Mxx. (Posted on 11/8/11)

This toolbox is the perfect size for beginner or the seasoned mechanic. I bought it because we were limited to size at my new job, but I found out it is the perfect size. It maneuvers easily without tipping over and holds the tools I need. That is probably my favorite part of the toolbox. I don't really have any dislikes for this tool box, unless you count the mouse someone put in there for a joke. I would highly recommend this tool box to anyone, my uncle also agrees. Can't go wrong with this one! (Posted on 8/27/11)

Awesome value! I did a lot of homework and was not going to be spending $5000 for the major name brand 72 inch professional toolboxes. This extreme tool box is constructed with the same 14, 18, and 20 gauge metals found in the other guys similar toolboxes, yet is only a fraction of the cost. You don't have to trust me! Please do your own research comparing this to the tool truck brands 72 inch shop toolboxes. You will see that the weight capacity, storage capacity, gauge of steel, etc. either equal to or exceed the more costly brands.

Shipping was very quick and the communication was very good. This massive hunk of steel has all the storage that i expected. Again, it is as good if not better than other brands that sell for thousands of dollars more. The ball bearing drawers roll in and out with ease. Only one thing I would have changed or liked to see was two sets of drawer slides for drawer #1. Even with that said, I have all my Hansen trays filled with both Metric and SAE in 6 point/12 point in 1/4", 3/8", and 1/2" drives in this drawer and it still pulls out effortlessly. There is so much room that now I have to buy more tools just to fill it and with the money I saved purchasing this jewel I do not even have to feel guilty about it.

Thank you Shannon for assisting me with this purchase. I have already recommended this site to friends and have eagerly encouraged them to purchase from you. Awesome experience! (Posted on 5/10/12)

best toolbox i bought for the money hands down (Posted on 4/13/12)

Im a cnc machinist and this tool box is huge going to but the hutch in two moths I love this toolbox (Posted on 4/9/12)

I worked out of a Mac Economizer 2000 (61" tall 27" wide 18" deep) for 20 years and couldn't ever afford a big fancy tool box from the tool truck. After running out of room for several years, I started looking on the internet for tool boxes. Come across StrictlyToolBoxes.com and found this one for half the $$$ that you would pay on the tool truck. This tool box holds all of my tools and plenty room for more with almost 50,000 cubic in. and the stainless steel top is a bonus! My only dislike is that the top has a rough feel to it instead of smooth. All of my co-workers were very impressed and I would highly recommend this tool box to anyone who wants a great tool box for a great deal! (Posted on 3/11/12)

Great company to work with and, though a sizable purchase, a great value. The tool box is plenty big to hold all of my tools. The paint finish is top notch. The stainless steel top is great and I'm glad I went for a tool box with that vs. the MDF top. Drawers are solid, smooth and well damped. The detents are very strong-I think too strong unless you are loading up the drawers with a lot of heavy tools. I haven't transferred my heavier tools to the lower drawers yet and that may make it feel easier to open. It does include bumpers to swap out so the drawers release easier on open/close. It still feels great and has a nice balance of resistance/security. I don't think the lack of a griplatch is an issue at all. The drawers don't creep and I leave them closed but not past the detent during the day and fully close them at night. The drawers are also nice and stiff so that you can open the longer drawers from the end rather than the middle of the drawer. The 30" depth is great and the drawers allow full access to the entire space.

Shipping was good. The shipping company held the tool box at the dock 90 miles away from me for almost four days and that was hard on my patience. Packing was good though I did have a scuff on the stainless top where something pushed down hard on the crate and one of the supports under the top sheet of the box created a high spot and left a dull glaze that keeps it from looking perfect.

All in all well worth the money. So much better than the tool box store brands and it's kind of hard to imagine how much better a cabinet could be for 2 or 3 times the price. I'd buy it again! (Posted on 2/17/12)

I am a full time auto tech and have needed to get a bigger tool box for a long time. Have looked at Truck brands for a while to trade in my 41" Sxxx-Ox. Still couldn't justify spending the extra $4-$5k for the difference. After all it stores my extra tools and doesn't roll around much. I have a Cxxxxxxx cart I love for my usual ratchets, wenches, pliers, etc. I had looked on this site for months, reading reviews and figuring out which tool box I wanted. When the time came I decided on the EX7218RC. While its not the professional series with thicker gauge steel I believe it will do what I want. The packaging it came in may be built to handle as much hell as the tool box itself. Luckily the freight guy was completely cool with me checking it out before I signed. Rolled into my bay and was very happy with the new tool box. Swapped all my tools over, with room to spare for a change. This tool box is strong as any lower/middle class truck brand, which is what i had before and expected, but with a quarter the cost. I'd suggest this to anyone, in fact I already have to two friends of mine. Detents instead of a griplatch, but not a big deal to me, may be others. Overall, excellent decision. (Posted on 10/30/11)

I was EXTREMELY pleased with this toolbox when it showed up. The toolbox was very well packaged and protected during shipment. I was pleasantly surprised when I finally was able to begin using this unit. I would park this next to a Sxxx-Ox, Mxx or Mxxxx any day of the week. I work with all Sxxxx-Ox at work, but this is kept at my home. My only complaint is the toolbox wasn't built in the USA. (Posted on 7/29/11)

I received my tool box today and this tool box is super stout. I had 30 technicians, not including sales parts and service advisors eyeballing the tool box. My favorite sayings today were “weighs over 1000 pounds” and “German paint and a stainless top”.

The guy that works next to me saw on your website and compared my tool box to his. My tool box has 1.2mm steel so he checked his Sxxx-ox tool box. The Sxxx-ox steel was 1.34 so minus the paint probably 1.2mm as well. The Sxxx-ox tool box cost him 6500 dollars and is didn’t have a stainless top. It is shorter and not as deep as my tool box. It also has 2 fewer casters.

I am not complaining and I am not sending my tool box back. You can’t have it! There were 2 things wrong with the toolbox. A minor 2 inch ding in back side of tool box. You have to look side ways to see it. The major concern was that almost all the wheel bolts where loose and 2 where missing. I tightened them up and installed 2 new bolts. While working on the casters I saw the construction inside the box and it is very well build.

The trucking company you used had my # but didn’t call me. They allowed a parts guy to sign off on it. I just wanted to let you know. The tool box is very well packed. My only recommendation is that you tell your customers to check their wheel bolts. Thank you so much for the great deal. I am trying to send you business, and helping to get the word out. (Posted on 6/30/11)

The first word out of my mouth after unpacking for inspection was WOW!! First Class construction Same or Better quality than SnxxxOx or M@@. What great deal compared to what the Sn@@O# guy wanted for a 6 year old box much smaller. When you are in the market for a tool box there is only one place to buy from. Great customer service Can't wait to fill it up! (Posted on 10/21/10)

I'm a shop owner in NJ and i've always been on the hunt for a big box, but never wanted to spend that $8000 on a tool box. I came across this on online and was a little skeptical about the quality but, let me tell you when it showed up i was amazed at the quality. I even thought that that quality of the stainless was going to be cheap, but no it has an amazing finish. My trans builder has a Sxxx Ox box, same size as my Extreme, and he payed $8000 for it and an additional $800 for the stainless top! Forget that! This box is the one to buy. (Posted on 6/27/10)

I am adding on to my other review like I said and not much has changed about my opinions of this box. It is still working very well and holds all of my tools. The next time I purchase a box of this size however I am upgrading to the professional line because of the faultless caster and the heavier duty drawers. Mainly the top two because that is where I have all my sockets and impact tools and those get very heavy. Also the professional/Extreme duty box has a heavier gauge steel that will hold up for many more years than this one. In conclusion box was a great buy and I would DEFINITELY buy from Shannon at Strictly tool boxes again!! (Posted on 6/19/10)

I was very happy with Strictly tool boxes customer service. I would definitely order from the again. Box came in 1/2' press board then 1/4' cardboard then 3/4" foam followed by plastic bag for a total of 1 1/2" of more than adequate protection. Now about the box itself. It has very good ball bearing slides that have a ball every 3/8" for the load bearing length of the slide. This is the same as SXXX-XX and MXXXX boxes of similar dimensions. The box has a very heavy gauge steel that is as near as I can tell the same as SXXX-XX or MXXXX( can't tell for sure because of the paint). Casters work well but I would order the faultless casters next time because your "flat" concrete is not that flat( box rides on four of the six caster on my floor due t it not being perfectly flat by the seams). Handles are solid aluminum, top is very nice. If i need a second box would definitely order from her again. Will amend this review after a couple of months just to let you know how the box is holding up! (Posted on 1/7/10)

This box is amazing for the price. Fast shipping. Best Buy (Posted on 10/17/09)

I purchased one of these boxes and i have to say it is a great box. equal to Sxxx-Ox Mxx. (Posted on 9/12/09)

This box is the best deal and value I've ever found in a tool box. For all of you guys that get the weekly visits from the tool trucks, you know how much one of those boxes would cost - the same as a good used car. This Mountain box is built as good if not better and is WAY cheaper. You couldn't find a better deal! I will be buying another smaller tool box for home. Thank you strictlytoolboxes.com for all your help and I look forward to doing business with you again! (Posted on 7/13/09)

I have had the cabinet for about a month now and it is working out very well. I am impressed by the quality for the price. Mine stays parked and have the standard casters and don't know what would happen if I was to roll it around a lot but I'm sure it would be fine. It is a great value. Irritates the tool venders that come in but sorry! (Posted on 3/30/09)

I love the toolbox! It is a wonderful! It does not tip over or slid in the back of my truck. I am able to easily move it in the truck when needed as well as use it in my shop from my bench. Tools stay dry and clean as well. My son had one and it was and encouragement to me to buy one. Would highly recommend this product to others.
The first time I ordered the tool box did not arrive and did not receive a notice that it was not in stock in the color that I wanted. So emailed company and receive a response the next day. I needed it right away for spring work so I changed color and than less than 4 days I received my new white tool box. They were very apologetic and was very quick with order. Excellent to order from! There is nothing that I don't like!, (Posted on 5/9/12)

I ordered on line without a hitch. The tool boxes were delivered when promised. Great service. I was called and notified of a delay and offered a different color or I could wait until the right ones were ready. I like the idea of being informed of delays in shipping. (Posted on 1/31/12)

This toolbox is a good choice. I like it. It was designed by farmers and people on the job for people working out and it is nice and compact. (Posted on 1/5/12)

I needed a decent toolbox to get my tools organized. I purchased a large Montezuma chest from a local store but they were sold out of the upper chest and could not get any more. I went online and found this one and thought it would fit my needs/desires. The toolbox is well made and arrived quickly. I should have bought the next size up but this one will do just fine. It should serve me well until I retire. Thanks for a good product. (Posted on 12/18/11)

This is a great tool box puts your tools where they are easy to get to and is very well built. It may be a little small. I wish I would have got the next size bigger. Would defiantly buy another one. (Posted on 7/29/11)

I've used alot of other brands of portable tool boxes The Montezuma portable works the best. I leave it on equipment out in the weather without ever having to worry about my tools. (Posted on 11/10/08)

I strugeled with the purchas not being able to see the tool box before I paid for it.I am verry picky and with out any hesitation can say this extreme toolbox is top quality and I will never spend what the big guys want for their tool boxes again.Not a paid indorsement just verry pleased with the toolbox and the service Thank you. (Posted on 5/1/12)

Excellent quality tool box. I am a professional who uses this toolbox daily to make a living. Best value for the money out there. Many other tech's where I work have already been sold on it after checking out my tool box. Equal quality as the big name toolboxes for a fraction of the price. Great purchase, will be the last tool box I ever buy. (Posted on 3/29/12)

I received my bottom half of my combination set last week. It came with an additional roll-around cart. I'm still waiting for the top chest which was back ordered. Ordering was easy and the customer support personnel were friendly and very helpful. The quality and craftsmanship of the chest was unreal. It blew my friends away. I also couldn't believe how much it weighed. It took two of us to get it on its side to install the casters. All the draws are smooth and all fittings and joints are solid.

I'm very happy with the decision and purchase. I shopped for quite awhile and this was by far the best value.

Regards,

Jim Gilbert

Tool box is a great buy. It is not Snap On quality. Although it is as good as Cornwell and the tool boxes you can get at Home Depot and Lowes. All in all the box is good and will hold up to most of the abuse that I will throw its way. (Posted on 3/5/12)

I purchased this tool box online and had a few doubts. I was very happy with the product, the service, and the delivery. I wasn't even there to receive it. I was promised that I would be happy. After using it for about two months I love it and the compliments from the shop...... (Posted on 2/24/12)

I bought one for my son 4 years ago, he loves his. So I decided to get one of my own. (Posted on 2/17/12)

I did a lot of homework online looking for the best toolbox value. I was on ebay and other sites looking at used, but this Extreme brand toolbox is awesome. I already had a 42" Snap On and I was out of room for tools. This chest comes with liners and heavy duty casters. It is made very well and I love the blue color. The people at strictlytoolboxes.com were awesome. I had a gentlemen call me when it shipped giving me instructions on inspecting the package and telling me to call if there were any issues. I had no issues! I paid for the lift gate service because I had it shipped to my house. This is the best experience I have had with a item this large being shipped to my house. I would definitely consider buying from them again and will strongly recommend it to anyone. My pictures show deep well sockets fit easy in the top drawer and there is plenty of room for power tool cases n the bottom drawers. There is so much room I now need to buy more tools to fill up the extra drawers. (Posted on 2/8/12)

I am Extremely happy with my shopping experience @ StrictlyToolBoxes.com. Their Website was of professional quality, easy to navigate with an excellent checkout procedure. My 56" Extreme Tool Box was competitively priced, arrived on time and undamaged!! The Customer Support throughout the entire POST purchase process was SUPERB!!! Thank you again!! (Posted on 1/30/12)

Ordered the 56" Extreme Combo. The box was just as advertised, and the review comments seem to be true. Very nice finish on the box, and everything works as it should. Shannon is a super guy to transact with - great response time! The package was separated upon ultimate delivery, but proved to be in good shape after inspection. I really can't see the need to buy a more expensive box (other than support for the U.S.). I would not hesitate to recommend this box to anyone. Thanks much Shannon and team. (Posted on 9/23/11)

I had been shopping for a tool box off of the major tool truck for 6 months trying to get a decent tool box without breaking the bank. After the typical credit pitch where the payments and interest totals more than a new car, I said no thanks!! A guy I work with told me to check out Strictly Tool Boxes. I could'nt believe that I could get a bigger and better tool box for a fraction of what my tool guy tried to sell me. The tool box is very stout and has a ton of space. I use the tool box everyday and have'nt had any issues . Probably one the best deals out there!! The only problem is that I don't have enough room for another one!! (Posted on 9/1/11)

Great Tool Box! I replaced my very over used 28 inch Craftsman tool box. After 30 plus years of over use it was falling apart. So my main criterion was drawers that could hold heavy tools and slide. The Extreme box works so well. Much more room and everything in its place. I can find what I’m looking for right away.

StrictlyToolboxes did everything they promised, when they promised. Quick free shipping, no taxes for me in Colorado and their price was less than I could find the box anywhere. The box arrived in great shape on a new pallet and packaging. I purchased magnetic tool drawers labels from someone on E-bay that really helped organize the box. With so many drawers it helps. That is one option StrictlyToolboxes could consider.
Thanks
(Posted on 8/6/11)

I can not say enough about my toolbox. In every way it is top quality. I'm currently in the process of buying another toolbox to replace my current worn out mxxxx tool boxes. I spent months of searching for a durable toolbox without paying an arm and a leg and truly found it...

Thanks,
Jason (Posted on 8/4/11)

Overall I'm very happy. The toolbox is heavy and well built.

I've only got two gripes with this box. First of all it really needs two handles on each end of the top chest.

When the box arrived, it was on a small pallet and they had the top chest in a cardboard box sitting on top of the bottom cabinet which was in another cardboard box with a strap to tie the top and bottom together.

The truck driver offered to help me lift the top cabinet off the bottom so I could inspect the bottom cabinet and I just about dropped my side. The top cabinet is just too heavy with the drawers in it to lift with a single handle on each side. That said, even Sxxx-ox's KRL 54" top chests only have one handle on each side so maybe I'm asking too much.

The other thing I could do without is the big obnoxious Extreme Tools logo on the bottom. If they would ditch this logo and use they money the save to add two more handles on the top cabinet would be perfect.

But it was well packed and arrived without any scratches or dings. (Posted on 6/30/11)

I’ve finally found a 56” professional quality tool box that performs like the tool boxes costing thousands more. Extreme Tool boxes has exceeded my expectations. I’ve compared this tool box to others costing 2 to 3 times more and I just can’t see 2 to 3 times more quality. The service I received from Shannon at StrictlyToolBoxes.com was every bit as good as the quality Extreme Tools puts in their tool boxes. Thanks again. (Posted on 6/30/11)

It started out a little rocky when the delivery truck pulled up to my driveway and popped the door open........my toolbox had obviously been transferred to another pallet as it was not banded to the pallet anymore and it had tipped over and hit a Snap-On box and pushed it over!!! I told the driver that we might as well break the boxes open up on the truck as I had a suspicion that it would be going back to the terminal. We uprighted the boxes, removed the packing per the instructions and surprise.....no damage!! The moral to this part of the story is to closely follow the inspection instructions that you receive from Strictly Toolboxes!

I easily assembled the wheels and handles (get some help...this thing is a monster and heavy!!) then I closely inspected the boxes and I have to tell you, this thing is high quality. Extreme evidently has found an excellent manufacturer or has their own plant or has their own QC guy on-site in China.....time will tell how the long term performance is of the boxes but my initial impression is that they are hell-for-stout and built to a high standard, plus, my wife said that the blue color "is really cute"!

My shopping experience with striclytoolboxes.com was excellent, they did everything they said they would do when they said they were going to do it....good shopping experience!

The only issue that I have now is finding room for it in my garage....sounds like a good weekend project!
(Posted on 5/11/11)

Very nice box...and the shipping speed was first rate. I took a chance with this box, not knowing Extreme Tools to begin with. High quality tool box, very sturdy and built right. I was able to combine 3- 36" boxes and 2 smaller top tool boxes into this...and still have extra drawers. Very happy customer...I will spread the word about StrictlyToolBoxes.com.

Thanks (Posted on 9/10/09)

I would like to just start by saying that you guy's are proffessionals all the way! You really deliver what you say. I purchased my set of boxes a couple of months ago and they are great. I would never pay the price for Sxxx-xn or Mxx or any others for that matter again. I have been a mechanic for over 25 years and this box by far outweighs the competition when it comes to price versus product. You get every bit the quality of a Sxxx-Ox without mortgaging your house to have it! Way to go guy's and keep up the good work. My box was like brand new when it arrived and I am not sure where the minor imperfections are because neither myself or my employee could find any.
Thanks again! Very happy from Wyoming! (Posted on 7/12/09)

Right out of the box I was impressed. This set of tool chests is every bit as good as a Mac or Sxxx-Ox box. For the price I paid for this set I expected about the quality of your standard Craftsman tool box.
The 18g steel is bent in all the right places to make these incredibly sturdy chests. The design is very thoughtful and efficient. I especially liked that all of the fasteners that are necessary for assembly have threaded bungs welded into the chest so you don't have to yank the drawers out to fish in the nuts from the backside.
The drawer pulls are exceptional. They are a heavy, nicely polished, aluminum extrusion that is held on with fasteners through the drawer fronts rather than some cheep, thin extrusion that just sticks on or is slid over a flanged bend on the drawer.
There is no one that I wouldn't recommend these chests to. (Posted on 2/6/09)

I got my toolbox within of week of ordering it . Super fast delivery service too. Now that i have had a chance to fill it and work out of it i can say that this tool box is awesome. Easily ranks with M@c / Sn@p 0n/ and M@tc0 tool boxes i have seen or used. Friends that work at shops are amazed by the value and quality. Even the Fed Ex guys who delivered it were super impressed. They mentioned they have delivered other brands with 1/10 the package job this toolbox had. This is my new favorite toy in the garage. No complaints so far, however this tool box could be 100% perfect if :1 drawers had handle locks or some mechanism other than detents (maybe even just as an option) 2 option to upgrade or buy extra drawers to fit where the deep ones are in the 2 lower corners. I would not trade this back for any money though, and i could not hope to touch the price and quality combo from any other brand! (Posted on 4/29/12)

I was impressed by the way that the toolbox was packed. It was fully crated and foam packed. I wonder why other companies do not pack their products as such.

The sliders are great quality rollers. Drawers are strong. I am impressed with the quality of the tool box. After seeing the toolbox and the price that I purchased it, some of the other guys at work are also looking to purchase one.

The detents are tough, but they include lighter replacements. The bolts that hold the handle on are too small and are not the best for securing it to the tool box. The addition of washers helped to properly secure the handle. Some of the larger drawers only have a single slider. In order to keep them properly working and strong I am adding extra sliders to all of the drawers that I can in order to lengthen drawer life and capability. The top did not stand up to chemicals, the stain on the top was ruined by brake clean.

I do kind of worry about the five year warranty. From what I have seen the Montezuma toolbox should last as long as I need it. Even if I have to replace parts of it, the tool box will cost me far less than a comparable size brand name.

A friend of mine uses the 56" box at work. I was impressed by how great of a toolbox it was for the price.

The Sxxx-Ox and Mxx guys are unhappy that I did not purchase their boxes. I have gotten a lot of grief from both of them. When taken care of toolboxes will last a very long time no matter what brand makes them.

I love the toolbox. I am very happy to have it and I can't wait to expand it. The only regret that I have is not buying the elite for the stainless top and faultless casters. (Posted on 4/12/12)

I am very pleased with my new Montezuma tool box. Very well constructed and well built.

Thank you for making such a quality product.
(Posted on 4/2/12)

By far the best toolbox I have found. Built strong with plenty of room to hold and organize tools. I have looked at several other toolbox name brands and will recommend this one over the others. High quality toolbox at a great price. (Posted on 1/28/12)

Hello everyone. This is my second tool box. I opted to get a second bottom roller cabinet instead of the top box. I figured with two bottoms I can have a 12 foot wide work space like some other branded mega tool box but at about 1/5 the price. The quality of metal is outstanding and very sturdy. The 1 inch work surface is plenty sturdy. The only down side I have is the drawer liners. They slide and are not that thick. Even though my wife thinks I'm nuts and wants me to not spend the money I have to now fill this monstrous tool box with tools. luckily I can use the huge savings towards those tools. I would recommend getting one of these before fuel price and the price of metal goes up again. I'm sure they wont last at this price (Posted on 1/6/12)

Love the new tool box lot cheaper then the name brand tool boxes and the same quality lots of room roller drawers are nice and smooth. (Posted on 12/5/11)

I am a full time auto mechanic and have been looking for a solid tool box for a long time. My mother always told me to shop around. So I did. I looked at a lot of tools boxes from Mxx, Mxxxx, Sxxx ox. Surfed the local for sale adds. Every tool box from what I saw was over priced for the size they had. I went online and found this web site. I liked the size of the tools box and even more liked the price. I went around to some other sites and found nothing but great reviews on the tool boxes.

I went ahead and purchased this tool box. It was the size I wanted and a good price as a added bonus. I did have a few questions about the tool box. When I called I got every answer I needed. I talked to Shannon on phone, A great guy to deal with. He was very Professional and answered all my questions.

When the tool box came in I was very very excited. It was like a big birthday gift to myself. The size of the big was WAY bigger then I thought it was going to be. I loved the size of it. the full length drawers. Its built like a tank. Everyone I know that is a mechanic all think I spent over 10,000 on this tool box. When I size it up with some of my friends over spent Snap on boxes they start to cry. After they see the massive size of my tool box vrs the small size of their tool box.

I tell everyone I know who looking for a solid tool box about what they can find on this web site. The sizes are great. The prices are the best. And the shipping is ungodly fast. (Posted on 9/5/11)

What a amazing tool box. I had been searching awhile for a tool box under 2k. I have been looking at used brand named boxes online but there prices were still above 2k for a used one. After seeing pictures and reviews for this tool box I was sold on the purchase. I was upgrading from a smaller tool box which I sold to a co worker in anticipation of this tool box. Once it arrived I was more than pleased. My only complaint is that I wish there was matching side cabinets in the same color as I've somehow managed to fill it with tools already. All my co workers could not believe what I paid for it. (Posted on 8/26/11)

This tool box is both relatively inexpensive in comparison to others and really strong. I routinely show how strong the drawers are to my friends by placing all my weight on them and there is no wobble or distortion of the drawer itself. I'm not sure of the origin this tool box was made but for the money who cares. You can spend 5 times as much getting the same quality tool box from a truck dealer. Take the savings and order the top chest and side cabinets. I recommend this tool box to anyone looking for high quality with out paying premium for a name and uses their tools regularly. Hope this helps.

I just got my box yesterday and I'm blown away at the quality and price. This beats Sxxx Ox/Cxxxxxxx/Mxx boxes. Great quality and great price. You would be dumb not to buy one. (Posted on 4/3/10)

I have been a mechanic for over 30 years and have out grown my box . I stumbled across this box and im very pleased with it . It is well made and my other mechanics are thinking about getting the same one. you will not be unhappy with this box but your tool guy will be. hehe great price fast shipping and well package when shipped you will love it thanks strickly tool boxes for all your help. (Posted on 3/29/10)

first impression of the box shipped was well packaged ,foam on the inside of the outter cardboard box , With the added packing semi-board over the cardboard box. you will NOT see this from the big 3 manufactors .After inspecting the box along side of my m***** box that is costing me over 3x the price of this box. that is 6" narrower then this box "montezuma classic" (depth wise) H x L are the same..the steel is way thicker in all area's then the M*****box compared to this 15 drawer classic. I have had a s***** too ! AT: 56Lx45Hx30D (SOLD IT). The classic is very! very! very! close in quality,steel thickness other then length, that i payed 1/2 the price for it compared to the s***** box. weight wise! the classic 15 drawer is way heavyer then the M***** box i'm paying for,close to the s*****...
second thing i would like to compare is the drawer's! i managed to get all my tools in the classic box with no problem ,w/some xtra drawers to fill later on. I noticed when fully closeing the drawer's they are quiet! they do not clunck when closed like S*****,M*****,But the bigger manufactors have a upper hand on the semi-locking of the drawers staying closed when moving the box around in the shop. easy fix! "lock the box".
AS for the caster's???? time will tell have only had the box for 2 week's,but when moveing it across the shop up to 8 times a day will give it a work out, including me!.so far they are holding up great!!!!

now for the paint OR powder coat it is layed on great! not a glass finish like a show car but is covered very well....better then the S***** box was!!! my "mistake" had a light area on the right side bottom/back that i didn't notice till i had it out side. 2 years later!
all i have to say is do not be miss lead buy the price....it is a very very well built roller ..
NOTE: TO THE CUSTOMER'S LOOKING AT THIS REVEIW...THIS IS NOT A SCAM...OR A PROMO IN ANYWAY... THIS REVIEW IS MY PERSONAL OPIONON OF THE TOOL BOX I ORDERED.HOPE IT HELP'S YOU!!
THANK YOU, shannon !!! For the great costumer service,I will be contacting you for futher purchase's for this tool box...

After spending quite a bit of time online researching tool boxes and reading countless reviews I decided to make my purchase. I am definitely not a person to spend this kind of money on a product, sight unseen but the overwhelming positive reviews found on here and elsewhere were support enough for me to give the toolbox a try. I am a casual wrencher and didn't need a $7k tool box from one of the big name brands so when I came across the strictlytoolboxes website I was very hopeful I could get a box like I wanted for a fraction of the cost. I have now had my toolbox for a month or two and have been extremely impressed with the quality from the packaging materials it arrived in, to the drawers & build quality. I expect this will be a tool box that will stay with me for as long as I care to work on cars on the weekend.

Very happy with my purchase and would gladly make another, but expect I will never need to do so! (Posted on 4/17/12)

I've been wanting a tool box for a long time and just could not bring myself to purchase a box truck brand box due to the price. Been looking at the craftsman toolboxes and just couldn't bring myself to spend that much money when the quality/durability just doesn't seem to be there. Somehow I stumbled across Strictly Toolboxes and found what seemed like a good price and quality match. After reading some of the reviews on here and Garagejournal.com I convinced myself to order the 56" Montezuma. After ordering online I got a call indicating they were back ordered but I could get it in Black right away. I opted to wait until the blue came in which was only one more week. Strictly Toolboxes was spot on with their estimate. After receiving the toolbox, I did my inspection and went to setting it up. Bolted on the casters, and with a little help put the top box onto the lower box.

The tool box is much stronger than any of the Craftsman toolboxes I have seen and I've enjoyed filling it with my tools. My only problem is I have to spend more money to fill it with tools. Great folks to deal with and I recommend Strictly Toolboxes without a doubt. Highly recommended. (Posted on 4/15/12)

I have been looking at Tool Boxes for a while and could not find one I liked. All the box store toolboxes felt cheap and flimsy. I began to look on line and found this site by searching rolling tool box combos. That search took me to the Extreme Tool Box which led to StrictlyToolBoxes, as well as others.

After checking all the sites I found this site to be the cheapest with the best reviews. I was originally looking at the 41" toolbox combo and was torn between Extreme & Montazuma. I called and spoke with Shannon and he suggested this tool box. I decided to spend the slight extra and purchased it.

I ordered it on 4/2 and it shipped on 4/3 as I was notified via e-mail. The shipping company called and stated they would deliver on 4/11 as that was the first lift gate truck they had. I asked about the truck and they told me it was a semi trailer. I informed them that my driveway could not accept a truck that large. They stated they would unload in the street and leave it at the end of the driveway. I explained that that was not safe due to the road I live on (Blind Curve on Steep Hill). I called Shannon and he said not to worry they deliver to difficult locations all the time. I was very concerned about the delivery.

The truck arrived and the driver knew the area and how unsafe it was to stop in the street. He passed my house found a turn around and came back facing down hill. He was then able to back the trailer into the driveway. He unloaded it and with a pallet jack brought it the 400' down the driveway and put it into my garage.

It arrived very well packed and the driver waited for me to inspect it as instructed. It was perfect. I took my time and assembled the lower box without any problems. I had to call for help to stand up the bottom toolbox after installing the wheels and to put the top box on. It is a very large but 2 people can handle it.

The toolbox is better than you can imagine. It is large and the finish and quality is exceptional. I am glad I went with the larger toolbox.

If you are worried about buying off the internet sight unseen, don't worry about this product or the company, buy it you will not have any regrets.

I highly recommend this toolbox and company. (Posted on 4/11/12)

I have 2 motorcycle dealerships and this is a great value. Well made, smooth action on the drawers and plenty of room. (Posted on 4/3/12)

I looked at many different tool boxes,but the price,quality and customer service before,during and after the sale were top notch and will recieve 100% of my business from now on! I highly recommend this toolbox,and the blue color is awesome. (Posted on 4/2/12)

I am becoming a tech and I needed a bigger toolbox for my tools. I found this tool box and my first thought was that it is such a good price! So I gave it a try and received the tool box today. It is an awesome box, A LOT bigger than I thought it would be; which is nice. All my tools fit in the toolbox perfectly. If you're a tech or just a hobbyist I recommend this box 100%. (Posted on 3/24/12)

I am loving my 56" tool box from www.strictlytoolboxes.com. I have no complaints with the tool box other than I will most likely need a bigger tool box in the future. (Posted on 3/5/12)

this was the best deal that i could find for a high quality box with a price that everybody could afford. I’m a customer for life now. great value. (Posted on 3/2/12)

I bought (2) of the 56" Montezuma 21 drawer tool box sets and the only problem I have is that I don't own enough tools to fill them yet! I was a little skeptical to make a large purchase site un-seen, but after reading the specs and reviews for the tool box I was sold. I had received my tool boxes, but the delivery guy damaged one while unloading it, heavier than he thought I guess. I called Strictly Toolboxes and they talked me through the process and shipped out my replacement tool box the next day. Great Service! I'm very pleased with the fit/finish of the tool boxes and the casters/drawer guides roll supper smooth. The keys are all different for the individual tool boxes, though I don't lock them up, it would be nice if the were keyed alike. Overall I am very pleased with the Montezuma Tool Boxes and the service at Strictly Toolboxes! (Posted on 2/18/12)

My toolbox has increased my work efficiency by at least 25%, with the amount of compartments that it has available. I have found that is it much easier to keep my tools arranged and orderly. I love the color. It is a limited edition item and it matches my company color (Sulzer EMS ) perfectly. Needless to say, I am a very satisfied customer. (Posted on 2/17/12)

Bought a 56 inch Montezuma top chest and bottom cabinet and got a great deal on it. I really like the tool box, lots of room and the drawers work great even with a lot weight in them. (Posted on 2/16/12)

First time customer and hopefully will buy a bigger toolbox sometime down the road but in the mean time this tool box will be perfect for 5 to 10 years. I couldn't ask for a better deal for the size of the tool box I received. When I saw for the first time up close it was bigger than I expected it to be. I was like a kid on Christmas day plus it was snowing that day. Love the blue color also, couldn't be any more happy.

Thanks! (Posted on 2/14/12)

I'm just a moderate DIY'er, but I have one philosophy in buying things that has served me well over the years. That is, buy good quality items that you can use for years and it winds up being cheaper in the long-run. I considered the Harbor Freight tool box, which is a good value, but it's just not on the same level as the Montezuma.

I'm really glad I got the 56" 21 drawer Montezuma. First of all, it looks fantastic. I love the blue! It will look good in any garage. The 21 drawers allow me to keep things very well organized. The drawers slide smoothly and are easy to take out and replace if you need to. It's a great size that allows me to keep things where I want them without loading up multiple tool types in the same drawers.

The tool box is well built. The casters are impressive. I have no doubt they will hold up well even with a heavy tool load. The finish is nice on the tool box. I have no problems at all with the tool box. It's just as advertised and I expect this tool box to last me for decades.

Ordering was a breeze. The tool box went out the same day I ordered. I got it about 5 days later. FedEx brought it right inside my garage with a pallet jack. Inspection went very quickly as StrictlyToolBoxes had detailed instructions written specifically for this exact tool box. The tool box was well packed and had no shipping damage. Set up was simple.

This was a great purchase. Don't worry at all about buying a tool box sight unseen. It's a good tool box and the service from Strictly Tool Boxes is top notch. If I ever get more advanced and need another tool box, I would buy another Montezuma from Strictly Tool Boxes (probably the 72"). (Posted on 2/12/12)

I'm really impressed with this tool box. Buying it on-line without seeing it in person made me a bit nervous, but after reading all the reviews I took a gamble and couldn't be happier. I outgrew my 26" Craftsman and needed a bigger tool box. I started looking at used Snap-on's but couldn't find one for a reasonable price, and looking at the tool boxes at Sears left me unimpressed with the quality. The Montezuma is leaps and bounds ahead of the higher end Craftsman I looked at, and costs less too! Quality is real good...better than I was expecting. The large draws have double ball bearing tracks and are reinforced under the draw for added strength. The draws roll real smooth and the tool box just looks great in blue. My only problem now is filling up the draws....there is so much space. All draws have liners included. I wasn't a big fan of the <a href="http://www.strictlytoolboxes.com">www.strictlytoolboxes.com</a> emblems so I took them off (one was a bit loose at the corner already). They came right off without much effort. The powder coat on the tool box look nice and has a decent shine to it. The draw handles aren't polished, they have a bit of a dull texture to them which will show dirt/grime, but should be easy enough to clean.

The packaging of the tool boxes inside and to protect the boxes, on the pallet was very good. I received the tool boxes without any damage. I ordered my tool box on a Monday afternoon, it shipped Tuesday morning, and was in my garage on Friday.

If you're on the fence about this one, don't be, it's a great tool box. (Posted on 2/10/12)

Well I want to start out saying that my experience with Shannon and strictlytoolboxes.com has been one of the best I have ever come across, Shannon explained everything I needed to know on order process and shipping instructions, not to mention info on the tool box it self.

I was a little concerned about ordering a tool box that I couldn't look at, but I had out grown my 41 inch and needed to upgrade to this 56 inch, a friend of mine ordered one from Shannon and had a great experience so I took a chance and was very satisfied with the whole experience.

What I love about this tool box is that it is BIG and very well built, the wheels are beefy and the drawers slide nice. It even came with drawer liners that I wasn't expecting. When the tool box arrived it was missing 4 drawer liners so I emailed Shannon and within 4 days I had my drawer liners @ no charge and no questions asked, now that's service.

The only thing I have found so far is that the main top drawer that is 51 inches wide sometimes binds if you don't close it slow but I'm sure because it is so wide that the hinges flex a little, but it really isn't a problem as long as you don't try to slam it shut..

I would highly recommend strictlytoolboxes.com to anyone, the customer service and knowledge was impressive, it doesn't really exist anymore these days, if you are concerned about buying from these guys don't worry, you'll love the experience, keep up the great work guys.... (Posted on 2/4/12)

I received my new Montezuma tool box combo. This thing is a beast!!!! I have had snap on and mac ect. and let me tell you this box can stand up to them any day and be built better. The customer service was number one!! They helped me every step of the way and also gave me a follow up call to make sure everything was good with the Tool Box. Thank you to the crew at strictlytoolboxes.com you guys are number one in my book for quality and workman ship and making sure the customer was informed at all times. If it wasn't for people like you and Task Force Dagger I would go broke just trying to keep up thanks for setting me up for success. Now its time to save up for the side cabinet I cant wait. (Posted on 2/4/12)

My garage was in need of a serious upgrade. I looked at the stainless tool boxes at our local home improvement store but through web reviews discovered they are not so good. My wife was surfing and came across Strictly Tool Boxes and before I knew it I was ordering the MTZ-BK51618 and the MTZ-7224TC. Shannon called to confirm the purchase the next day. I paid extra for lift gate delivery which is money well spent. I made the delivery drivers wait until the tool boxes were completely un-crated and visual inspection complete before I signed the shipping paperwork. I could not be happier with this purchase. The 72" tool box houses all my machine shop tools, lathe chucks, end mills, vises, heavy stuff. The drawer movement is smooth as silk. The MDF top on the 72" is a great work surface. The casters are heavy duty. I like the black powder coat finish. Included are good quality drawer liners. The 56" tool box houses all my mechanics tools with plenty of room and a good mix of drawer sizes.

You can pay a lot more for other brands but I believe these tool boxes come pretty close to the same quality. FYI, I have been a mechanic for GM and John Deere and now just work on my own muscle car and vintage truck. (Posted on 1/31/12)

Just received my toolbox today...so far so good. I think everyone at work is impressed with the boxes quality. I can't really compare it to snapon as I am not familiar with them ...but it looks as good or better quality than the best craftsman boxes I was looking at. Free shipping was nice. Comparable boxes I saw online seemed to be more money, so I feel like it was a good value also. (Posted on 1/27/12)

We purchased the 56" Montezuma tool box models. The one set was for my son to take to college, to use in lab. The others are for my home "shop". The quality of the tool boxes is better than I expected. Very, very nice units.

My employer supplies the tool box I use at work, it is a "big name brand". I would put the Montezuma right up there with it. I actually like my new Montezuma's better.

Customer service from Shannon@strictlytoolboxes.com is simple amazing. What a great organization. Thanks again! (Posted on 1/13/12)

Why you made your purchase?
Back in April my buddy/coworker got the 72" elite and I was blown away with how nice these are made. Especially for the price here on the Strictly Tool Boxes site,

What are some of your favorite features?
The storage space per square inch, the sturdiness of the construction, and the 5th and 6th wheels which you don't get on other companies tool boxes of this size, and the ease of getting the matching lock set which I don't have yet but I know on there way

What do you dislike about the tool box?
Only thing is that I was sent the wrong bracket to mount the side cabinet MTZ-BK1803SL. I called about it and it's in the mail already on it's way to me

How likely are you to recommend this tool box to a friend?
Already did in a way. It wasn't a friend but service guy doing warranty work on one of our sweepers was asking me about it as he watched me unload it from the truck, and looked at the site from his smart phone. (Posted on 1/11/12)

I have had owned Sxxx-Ox, Mxx tools, and Mxxxx tool boxes in the past. This tool box is just as good as the big named tool boxes for half the price, I am recommending this tool box. This was an gift from my wife Anna and I pleased to have it!! (Posted on 1/9/12)

I had a Cxxxxxxxx tool box for years until I outgrew it. I originally looked online for a large quality tool box by one of the big 3 - Mxxxx, Sxxx Ox or Mxx, but found I could buy a used car for the price they were asking for a USED tool box. I was getting pretty frustrated and almost gave up, but then a friend told me about this tool box and how comparable they were in quality and that did not cost an arm and a leg. I took a chance and ordered the 56 inch.
I love the HUGE size, quality, and drawer configuration of this tool box! It looks awesome sitting in my garage. The best thing was the $3,000 bucks I saved by not going with the Sxxx Ox I originally considered getting. Because of the savings I was able to purchase some nifty new tools.

I have bragged about it to a few of my buddies who are also looking into getting one. (Posted on 1/6/12)

I purchased my this tool box and took it to my job site.am a professional diesel engine mechanic. Every one was surprised at how smart my tool box is not only that the space is perfect. I like the way it's built solid and not flimsy as many other tool boxes with brand names and very high price tags. (Posted on 12/17/11)

I was pretty skeptical about this toolbox when I found it on the internet. I read all the specs and compared it to other toolboxes that were 3 times as much money or more. I finally decided to order it. I still wasn't sure this was a smart thing to do. After receiving the toolbox I was very surprised that the quality was far better than I thought it would be. Even the people that quoted me prices on other boxes were surprised. I decided to write this after a few months of owning the tool box. So I would be able to value it better after some use. I am very happy with the quality of this toolbox and very surprised at the low cost. I was also pleased with the person I talked to on the phone about this purchase prior to ordering it. He was very straightforward and helpful. Thanks John (Posted on 10/24/11)

I bought the 52 inch combo set and now have the side box. I love it! Durable, easy to move drawers, and heavy duty locks that work awesome. Shipping was early. Overall I would recommend this toolbox to every one. You will enjoy it forever. (Posted on 9/20/11)

Its great love it great service (Posted on 9/17/11)

Spent a lot of time on the internet & with the local stores on comparing tool cest sizes and quailty. I found the perfect combination with Strictley Toolboxes. I didnt talked to anyboby. I placed the order through the internet. I recieved the tool box in perfect condition. Glad I decided to get the 56 " instead of the 41". The box is 75% full already.

Thanks

Customer service is first class with Strictly Toolboxes! They called and emailed updates to the shipping and arrival times. The tool box is well constructed and comes with drawer mats so your tools stay put when moving the chest around. It is surprising easy to move even when fully loaded with tools! For the beginner or professional this tool box represents excellent value for the money! (Posted on 9/9/11)

I bought this tool box with the feeling I would be able to fill it. I was wrong. Not only do I have more room the quality is unmatched with any other brand. I was very surprised as I filled the drawers the better they worked. This is a very high quality tool box and the warranty is great to no other brand that I looked at could come close. The customer service was great when I called I got all the answers I needed. I’m about to order a side box in a few minutes. If you buy this tool box you wont be sorry one bit worth every penny. (Posted on 9/1/11)

I bought this tool box to replace a previously used smaller bottom only Sxxx-ox roller cabinet. I was running out of space and started looking for a matching top box or some other solution. After looking around and researching for a while I was about out of options and not sure what to do. Everything I could afford was not very good quality and everything of good quality was out of my price league. Then I stumbled upon people talking about strictlytoolboxes on the garagejournal forums.

The ordering and shipping process was quick and easy. The packaging had the normal freight wear and tear but because of the great packaging there wasn’t a scratch on it. I would advise to have someone help set it up. I had to get my dad to help put the castors on and lift the upper box onto the lower. He was more than happy to help and see my new “toy” though.

I feel that it is not as high of quality as professional brands such as Sxxx-ox. However, it is head and shoulders better than the run of the mill brands and I feel that what you get for the price is phenomenal. As a side note, if you were one of those people who only want the best money can buy you wouldn’t be on this website anyway. Another minor gripe is the hardware for the handle and tabs that hold the two boxes together are on the cheap side. This doesn’t bother me all that much because it stays in one place in my garage and I only plan on moving it when I move. Plus this can be upgraded in the future.

Now that I own and have used this box I have no regrets. I love the color and drawer configuration. One great thing about strictlytoolboxes is there product line and ability to get what you want. Another thing I love is the top shelf. Overall this box is actually shorter than other comparable boxes I have seen. This allows me to see and use the top shelf without needing a stool or milk crate to stand on. It also doesn’t have a lip on that top shelf which makes it even easier to use. I use the top shelf for pry bars, breaker bars and other long or awkward tools.

I would not hesitate to recommend this box and strictly tool boxes, as a company, to anyone. (Posted on 8/31/11)

I purchased the Montezuma 56" tool box for the price and size. I needed a monster tool box to hold my tools, good thing I bought this one! I had plenty of room to fill and organize the drawers full of my tool collection! I like the smooth rolling drawer guides and the mixture of shallow and deep drawers. So far I have no dislikes for this tool box. Online purchasing was simple and problem free. The tool boxes were packaged very well, made it quickly through shipping and without a scratch. My wife an I easily assembled and stacked the tool boxes. I've been recommending Strictlytoolboxes.com to co-workers and friends.

Thank you for the GREAT service and quality built tool box (Posted on 8/26/11)

I was looking for a tool chest to replace the stackable Craftsman rolling tool chest I've had for almost 20 years. The current toolbox was very over loaded and just not up to the task anymore. I needed something with rolling glides, wheels that won't flat spot under load and constructed from a decent gauge material that won't break the bank. My goals were simple or so I thought after looking through a myrad of boxes from different sources.

There are a number of decent units to choose from however the cost is through the roof. Conversely there are a number of very low priced units that don't cut the mustard. I was pleased to find Stricklytoolboxes.com and the assortment and quality not to mention decent prices for the units. Not only can you find a decent product but you can customize the configuration, drawer sizes etc.. as you see fit.

I purchased the Montezuma 56" 21 drawer combo in blue. When the toolboxes were delivered there was some worry and the cardboard had some damage. However the units were well packed and did not have a scratch on them. Its' amazing how much stuff from other places shows up damaged. So I was very pleased with the packing of the toolboxes, took a while to get it all off. Assembly was very easy, just bolt on the handle and the wheels and your good to go. Then lay down the top protector and set the top box down and roll it away. I used some tie down straps and a chain hoist to raise and lower the top box into position.

The blue color is very pleasing to look at and the finish is very nice. The unit rolls nicely on the six casters and is easy to position. All the drawers slide in and out smoothly and have a slight catch to them when closed. Also included are mats that are pre-cut to size and fit nicely in all the drawers and top storage.

I transferred all the tools from my Craftsman toolboxes and other places tool were sitting around. Some of the drawers are heavily loaded with 3/4 sockets, wrenches etc.. and other with large 2+ inch wrenches on down the previous toolbox could not handle. Everything slides in and out just fine, something I was a little worried about before buying this.

All in all I'm very happy with this purchase and would buy it again in second. I will be purchasing a side box for this for some of the bulkier tools around the shop.

I don't really have any cons but if were to be nit picky:
It would be nice to have a little more height on the top lid of the toolbox. (Posted on 8/21/11)

I have been looking for a quality tool box for the past several years. The usual options in my price range were not the quality I wanted. I have watched Craig's list during this time period for a used high quality box but they were all in the $3000 to $4000 range which seemed like a lot for a used tool box. A friend told me about his new 56" Montezuma. I was astounded by the look, quality and price. The free shipping was an added bonus. I feel I've gotten much more than I paid in value. When I ordered, the box and cabinet was back ordered. The staff was very friendly and kept me informed about the status. I have no complaints. Even the heavy drawers slide with ease. I have shown it to several friends and they are consistently off about a thousand or more dollars when they guess the price. Now all of my tools are in one location and well organized. I just need to remember which drawer they're in. (Posted on 8/6/11)

Quite honestly I stumbled on the site and boy am I glad I did. This is a solidly built box that cost several hundred less than comparable boxes. I look forward to years of service out of this beast! (Posted on 8/5/11)

This tool box has a massive amount of storage - in all the right places. Smooth action drawers are a pleasure to use, The drawer configuration is ideal for individual tools and has some larger and deeper drawers for blow-mold sets. This cabinet will allow me to grow my collection without having to add on additional side boxes or replace it entirely. Powder coat finish is flawless. Good and bad news - not likely to buy again because I expect this will handle both my growing tool collection and is built to last a long time. Thanks to Shannon for expert counseling and selection assistance. He knows his business. (Posted on 7/29/11)

It's been a couple of months that I have owned my new tool box. I am very happy with my purchase. The guys at Strictly Tool Boxes kept me informed every step of the way from order to receiving. Can't get better customer service anywhere.

The tools box is better quality than I expected. Very strong construction. The more I load it up the better it works. Drawers open and close smooth. The finish is durable. My next door neighbor has a very expensive name brand tool box (Sxxx-Ox - which he paid about 4 times more than I did for the same size tool box) and when he saw my new one he was very impressed with quality and price.

I am not a professional mechanic but run a race car out of my home shop so I use my tools a lot. This tool box will last me for a long time. I am sure it will be the last one I NEED to buy, unless I need to go with a bigger tool box. If that happens my first call would be to Strictly Tool Box. (Posted on 7/4/11)

Great box especially for the price. Lots of space for all of our tools. The quality is also really nice. Well built. We are very happy with this purchase. (Posted on 6/28/11)

After 10 years off of wrenching professionally I went back. Only I had sold all my toolboxes. Money is tight so I scoured the internet and looked for a used box. I could not find a thing big enough in my price range. I read about strictly toolboxes on a forum and thought it was worth a shot. I am pleased to say I am ecstatic with my purchase! My last box was a snap on classic triple bank. This combo has much more room! I got the snap on for a steal, and this is 5 times the value! I wont lie and say this is the best box on the market, but for the space it has and the quality, it beats the box store stuff in price and quality. I will upgrade someday, I have to many tools, and I add more all the time, so I will need more space and weight capacity. When I do I will buy a pro line toolbox from strictly toolboxes without even looking what anyone else has. I needed a box and I almost bought a craftsman, man I am glad I didn't. All drawers work great, and this thing rolls across the shop better than any other box I have tried. Yes better than my snap on. With the same tools in it!
Now about the service, these guys were awesome! I can't imagine these guys are making huge margins on these boxes, but they treated me like a king. They did what they said when they said they would do it. I even talked their ears off when I called them and they took the time to chat with me. (Which I know can be annoying, in case you haven't figured it out I'm a bit of a talker!)
I wish the top and bottom were keyed the same.......but that's not even a issue....no other brands do this that I know of. I will do this myself and also key my mobile cart the same. My picture shows my box with my little mobile cart next to it. They are both full. I work with another tech who is very cheap, and he is really considering buying one of these due to the price and quality. He currently uses a craftsman box and he loves this one. Overall I could not he happier with my purchase!!! Thank you thank you thank you strictly toolboxes! I love it! (Posted on 6/2/11)

This was my first order from Strictlytoolboxes.com, but it was an absolutely top-notch experience.

I was a bit hesitant to order a large and expensive toolbox online, without having had the benefit of spending some time with the product first. You know, opening and closing drawers, getting a sense for the "wobble" in the drawer and how the box feels overall... But, after having read a couple of reviews of this Montezuma box, and the enthusiasm that the owners shared for the product, I decided to give it some serious consideration. I also read a couple of online queries where the prospective customer was asking some very "aggressive" questions about the quality of the spot welds on the box, and Shannon did just the opposite of what I expected -- instead of merely giving lip service to the inquiry, he posted about a half-dozen extremely close-up pictures of the spot welds just to make the point that he sells only quality goods. Those photos and Shannon's professional demeanor toward this inquirer closed the deal.

The ordering process went very smoothly and, fifteen minutes later, I had a confirmation of my order. Shannon's team kept me up to date on every step of the provisioning process, including a delay in the shipping due to some customs paperwork. These guys are true professionals, and they went out of their way to keep me apprised of developments, including release of the box to FedEx, and then a hand-off to the FedEx tracking system with instructions of what I needed to do upon receipt of the box.

The box arrived on the date promised, and the FedEx delivery guy was just dying to see what was inside the box (he was a tool nut, too). So, he helped me unpack the box and we both checked the chests for damage (there was none). He was as impressed as I was with just how heavy and stout this box was, and how well the product was packed on the pallet. So, I assembled the box, which took about an hour, and it was up and ready for business. Moving the box around the shop was "fun" as it is big and very heavy, but I got what I asked for...

I've had the box for about a month now, and it is a true joy to use. Built like a freakin' tank, heavy, solid, and HUGE, it is exactly what I was looking for. I was concerned that the box might be a little "tinny", like some of the more expensive boxes down at Sears but, frankly, there is no comparison -- this box is so much more. I've since loaded up all of my tools, including many of my electronics tools (i.e. scopes, soldering gear, electronics tools), and I still have plenty of room left over. The drawer mats provided with the box are superb, heavy cushiony vinyl, perfectly cut for the drawer, and they keep the tools in place. The drawers are glass smooth when opening and closing, and closing requires a little extra nudge as the drawers all have detents to stay closed. The paint job borders on automotive quality, and all of the fittings scream quality. There isn't a cheap piece of anything on this box, and I have no question that it will last a lifetime.

So, in closing, not only was the box far more than I expected, in all aspects (quality, utility, value, fit and finish), but the ordering process and customer service made the entire process so much better. I will likely need to get a second (smaller) box in the next few years, and I will definitely be coming back to Strictlytoolboxes.com. Thanks, Shannon and team. You guys have earned a five-by-five rating from me. (Posted on 5/31/11)

Love the toolbox, heavy duty and holds all my tools! (Posted on 4/5/11)

I ordered the tool box on Monday morning and it arrived about 1PM on Wednesday. Everything was is good condition when it arrived and all the bolts and washers for the castors and handle were there. It was easy to assemble and everything, including the precut drawer liners, arrived safey. At first I thought there was only one draw liner for each size drawer, but then I noticed all the liners were in one draw so I just had to take them out and put them in the other drawers. The tool box is a much better quality than the boxes you would find in the various chain stores yet the price is competitive. I am well pleased with the box. I was debating between the 42'' and the 56'' and I'm glad I bought the 56'', It filled up faster than I thought it would, yet I still have some space for future expansion. I would highly recommend this box to anyone who needs a larger, quality tool chest. (Posted on 12/30/10)

I jumped on this tool box when it was first made available. I called Shannon to ask him about this box and he said it was a special order box that he had made from Montezuma and that he was taking pre-orders for the tool boxes at this time. He told be that the boxes should ship around the 9th of November, I think it actually shipped sooner. I own a Sn** O* box of similar size so I kind of had an idea of how big the box would be. I will say that the quality is right up there especially for the cost of the box. My Sn** O* box was about 5 times as much. The tool box was delivered packaged very well, no dents or scratches. I assembled the tool boxes and over the next few days loaded my tools in it. I had sold a smaller box and my tools were all over the garage floor so it took a little while to get them arranged. This box has a ton of room and everything fit perfect. The drawer slides seem to work better as you get more weight in them. It came with very nice drawer liners cut to fit, high density foam I think. All in all I am very pleased with this box especially since there is still room in it after I loaded all my tools. I would definitely recommend this box for home use and it will probably hold up well in a shop situation. (Posted on 11/24/10)

I recently retired ( ford tech ) and needed a smaller toolbox for my home shop. I found Strictly Toolboxes on the internet and the tool boxes looked good, the people I talket to on the phone were very helpful. My toolbox arrived when promised and I am very happy with it. I highly reccomend this product and company to everyone (Posted on 4/16/12)

Hello,
My name is Randy and I'm the Master technician with the County Detention Center . I purchased the Extreme tool box 56 inch 11 drawer unit to replace an older Waterloo tool box that was starting to show a lot of wear. When I got my new tool box and just taking a quick look at the unit I noticed quickly that the extreme tool box had extra set of slides on the top drawer and all the parts were built much heavier. We use the unit everyday to maintain our 150,000 square foot correctional facility. It works well with securing and transporting our tools and equipment. I would recommend an extreme tool box to anyone and would definitely purchase another tool box if the need arises. (Posted on 3/6/12)

This is my second purchase of an "Extreme Tools" Tool Box from Strictly Tool Boxes, I am very pleased! Competitive prices, easy checkout, quick delivery and AWESOME post purchase service!! Great Work Strictly Tool Boxes!!! (Posted on 2/21/12)

I had a 41in Montezuma tool box and wanted a bigger tool box. The 56in is very nice and heavy duty for what i needed. I have a Montezuma 30 x 19 CPL box on the top of the 56 Extreme Tool box, it fits very nice on there. (Posted on 2/11/12)

Great company to work with in determining the right product to buy; customer service is very informed and knowledgeable about the products they sell. Billing, shipping and delivery were on time and as expected. Website is easy to navigate and use.

The toolbox is is very high quality, highly recommended. (Posted on 1/7/12)

I searched for quality tool boxes on the internet and found the Extreme Tool Box website. I had several questions so I called the telephone number on the site and was able to talk to an extremely knowledgeable person who answered all of my questions. I choose the Extreme Tool Box because it equaled Mxxxx and Sxxx-Ox in quality but for a much more reasonable price. Obviously, since I was buying on the internet and not able to see the box in person, I was a little apprehensive. However, once my tool box arrived, I was thrilled. It was exactly what I had hoped it would be. Sturdy, durable, solid and good looking! The drawers slide nicely and feel great when shutting. There is nothing flimsy about this tool box. I also appreciate the fact that it came with drawer liners. Overall, I couldn't be more happy with it and am so glad I choose the Extreme Toolbox. (Posted on 10/30/11)

Recently received our 56" 11 Drawer Stainless Top Extreme Tool Box and couldn't be happier with the product and the service. The tool box was packaged well for shipping with no damage what so ever. I was very impressed with the stainless top and how solid it is, we were figuring on having to reinforce it as we are using it as a work bench to work on cylinder heads and we won't have to do a thing to it. As you can see in the picture we used to use a roll around lift kart and this new box will be a huge improvement. Thanks (Posted on 10/28/11)

We use these toolboxes in our Mobile Maintenance Units that we send out on our job sites. These are great toolboxes! As you can see in the picture provided, we do not have to attach are wheels, as we need these sturdy and stable in our trucks. My guys fabricate steel around them to hold them in place while our trucks are in motion. I have no complaints on these tool boxes, however, I would change the locking system on the drawers as we do carry heavy tools when traveling. (Posted on 9/30/11)

This tool box that I purchased is excellent. I work on heavy trucks as a tech full time. It’s a very rugged tool box way better then paying thousands for a sxxx-ox or mxx tool box and the quality is just as nice. (Posted on 8/25/11)

I am very happy with the toolbox. (Posted on 8/25/11)

I’ve finally found a 56” professional quality tool box that performs like the tool boxes costing thousands more. Extreme Tool boxes has exceeded my expectations. I’ve compared this tool box to others costing 2 to 3 times more and I just can’t see 2 to 3 times more quality. The service I received from Shannon at StrictlyToolBoxes.com was every bit as good as the quality Extreme Tools puts in their tool boxes. Thanks again. (Posted on 6/30/11)

Thanks for the excellent service as well as the high quality tool box, an excellent value! I have received great comments from a number of friends who have seen it including one who has a number of Sxxx-Ox boxes. He said that when he needs another tool box he will be going to you. (Posted on 6/30/11)

Major hassle for and un-impressive tool box, I have buyers’ remorse.

It took 3weeks and 4 attempts to get a tool box delivered to my shop.

The first tool box showed up with freight damage so I refused it, no biggie, it happens. The second tool box shows up a week later on the same freight line with the same driver and the same type of damage, just in a different spot, darn the bad luck but I’m starting to see a pattern here. Third tool box, same freight line, same truck, same driver, same damage, this is starting to sound like one of the definitions of insanity! I called Shannon at Strictly tool boxes, Larry at Extreme tools, and both of the freight companies involved and told them what was going on. Extreme told me they would send the next tool box in a plywood shipping box and that it would be routed thru a different freight line. To Extremes credit they did shrink wrap particle board to 2 sides of the cardboard outer shipping box but it still arrived on the same shipping line, on the same truck, and with the same driver as the last 3. I don’t know who fibbed to who on the shipping, Extreme to me or Custom CO (Extremes Shipper) to Extreme but a “un-damaged” tool box arrived in my shop!!!!

My first impression after taking all the cardboard and shrink wrap off is that this tool box is no Sna*-O* or Matc* or Cromwel*, It’s a lot closer to a Sears blue light special, just a lot bigger and a LITTLE heavier.
I can’t fault Shannon at Strictly Tool boxes for this, he told me it was lighter that the next tool box up the food chain but I tried it anyway. My mistake.

Closer inspection found a dent in the bottom drawer and it is hard to get all of the drawers pushed in at the same time to lock it up.

Bottom line is I am not impressed.

Response from Extreme Tools

We are sorry that you had so much trouble in getting this order delivered. We continue to work diligently to maintain our excellent customer service record. However, Extreme Tools has no way of controlling the mishaps that occur with the freight lines once our merchandise leaves our warehouse. We acknowledged your claims immediately and sent out a new tool box within 24 hours. We contacted the shipper several times regarding the deliveries and the damaged tool boxes. We requested “white glove service” and also received written confirmation that the final tool box would be delivered by a different 3rd party delivery service. We did everything that we could within our power to get your item delivered in brand new condition.

The Extreme Tools tool box which you purchased is our top selling tool box and listed under our Standard Tool Box Series. The specifications including the gauge of the steel, the weight, the strength of the drawers, etc. is posted and readily accessible for anyone wishing to make a purchase. We have never had a tool box returned because a customer was unhappy with the quality. Most people who have researched our tool boxes know if they want the standard series or if they want the added strength and features of the Professional Tool Box Series.

Since we want our customers to be fully satisfied with the quality of their purchases, we are willing to offer a refund on your current purchase and a discount one of our Professional Series tool boxes if you wish to purchase that one instead. We hope that this offer will help to compensate you for the frustration you experienced in trying to get your tool box. (Posted on 6/27/11)

this is an awesome quality toolbox for the money just as good as Sxxx Ox or Mxxx without the payments,the 2 handles makes it easy to move from both sides. (Posted on 3/27/10)

What a great product. Everything was just as described but better. Customer Service worked great with us with receiving this tool box. We are way up here on the mountain and they laid out everything we needed to get this toolbox here safe and sound. Well packaged to make sure it arrived safe. However, as tough as this toolbox is I think it would of held up without all the packaging. Drawers are perfect size and roll with ease. The toolbox looks great in our shop and it sure cleaned up all the tools that we had hanging on the wall and scattered around the ranch. (Posted on 4/16/12)

This is a great tool box... Strong.. Well made.. Looks Great.. A fair price.. I was not looking for cheap... I was looking for a well made, strong, and a good looking toolbox at a fair price,,, this has beat my expectations.. I am very, very happy... it was shipped in a strong wooden box.. and wraped in plastic... Did I mention I am very happy... I would buy another one and recommend it to all.. You know when you open the shipping box and roll it out... then you open the drawers and push and twist ... The next words out of your mouth will be (like mine).. WOW (Posted on 4/14/12)

I purchased this for my husband. He is a professional heavy equipment mechanic. He is very pleased with the tool box and believes that it it is as good as snap on and cheaper. He is very pleased with it and thinking of purchasing add ons to it. Thank you very much (Posted on 4/9/12)

Considering the price of the name brands, buying this three bay Montezuma toolbox was a no brainer. The price, quality and shipment are excellent. The size is comparable to the name brand two bay I had before. I am extremely happy of the quality of this Montezuma tool box. The shipment was a breeze and the packaging was great for the protecting the integrity of the tool box in freight. I have already recommended to a few friends that this is the place to buy tool boxes. Thank you for all the help and the excellent toolbox purchased. (Posted on 3/30/12)

This tool box was everything that I read about and more. Great quality, heavy duty, smooth drawer action and enough room for my tools then some. I would recommend this tool box over all the other name brands hands down. Obviously with the other tool boxes you are defiantly paying for the name because this tool box comes at an affordable price and great quality! (Posted on 2/8/12)

I had been looking for a new bigger tool box for a while and was looking at a smaller tool box by a different company and a guy in my class got the Montezuma elite. After looking at it and another tool box made by a competitor I decided that the Montezuma was better built and twice the value. I did a lot of research and looked at a lot of tool boxes and companies. I went with Montezuma and couldn't be happier with it. It was very well packaged and looks great. I plan to wrench for a career and i believe I'm off to a good start with this tool box. (Posted on 2/7/12)

I would recommend this tool box to anyone in the market for a inexpensive large tool box that has all the features of a mxx or sxxx-xx toolbox. I purchased because of price , looks and storage capacity. At this point I have nothing to complain about. (Posted on 12/12/11)

This is a great tool box i did a lot of looking for a new tool box and i have no regrets buying this one. I had outgrown my old tool box and now i have enough room to buy more tools, which wont be a problem with the money i saved. When the tool box arrived there was a little damage to the crate but the tool box was fine. The quality of the tool box is great the drawers open and close smoothly the casters roll on the shop floor well and the tool box looks great. The customer service when you call in is also great very nice and do there very best to answer any questions you have. I have and will recommend this tool box to everyone. (Posted on 12/12/11)

I love this tool box!!! From first ordering till delivery everything was a breeze!!! I needed a larger tool box for some time and after looking at some of the other competitors boxes, the value for this tool box took the cake!!! I like the ease of opening the drawers, and the mobility with the upgraded casters (well worth the upgrade). There is lots of storage, room for all my sockets to sheet metal tools. After having this tool box for a couple months I wish they would have beefed up the drawer locks, the plastic ends broke within the first 3 months, and the drawers will open when you don't expect it. I also wish they would offer a stainless steel top for this model. I work with 40 other mechanics and they all liked the tool box and wanted more information on where to buy one, which I gladly directed them to your web site. Thank you (Posted on 10/25/11)

Shopped around for a while because I outgrew my 41" tool box with top chest. I didn't want to spend all of the money for one of the top brands and a friend told me about this site. I found this tool box on sale and decided to go for it after reading all of the good reviews. When the box arrived I was very surprised at the initial quality of the box. Its very solid and I’m 210 lbs and i kneeled down in the bottom drawer to test it and it held my weight without an issue. I’ve had the box for a year now and never had an issue with it. None the less to say I am more than happy with my purchase. Only problem is that now I’m starting to outgrow this box and i need a side cart for it and there isn’t one out for it yet in orange. (Posted on 10/21/11)

I am a technician at a dealership in town and I needed to upgrade my tool box. I was in the market for a three bay that was tall. Me being 6'4", I don't like to bend down a few inches to write on a repair order or use my computer.

I was looking around between the three major brands and decided on the same size. Another technician has that tool box in the shop so I was able to check it out pretty well. It's a nice tool box, but they cost around $5500. I came across strictlytoolboxes.com and saw the 72" 16 drawer Montezuma. I looked at the specifications and went back to look at the other tool box's specs. Not much of a difference, in fact the only differences were in favor the Montezuma. About a month ago "add to cart" was clicked.

It arrived securely surrounded in Styrofoam inside a crate. I opened the crate and was amazed at what just $2000 had gotten me. I rolled it into the shop and have not stopped getting compliments since. The paint finish is great and the drawer pulls look and feel awesome. The drawer liners fit perfectly and, as my shop foreman said, the drawers pull just as nice as his tool box that cost five times as much. The top is nice and smooth so you can write on it. The height is perfect for me, I could not have been happier on that point. I love the fact that it has the extra set of casters. That means that is it meant to hold a heavy load. The drawer sliders actually hold more weight than the original tool box i was looking at. Another big plus is the second full width skinny drawer. I have never seen that on any other tool box and it is the perfect drawer.

Overall I had a great experience with strictlytoolboxes.com and am 110% happy with my choice. Some of the other techs told me if they had to do it all over again they wouldn't have made the same decision. Even one of the tools truck guys was was checking it out. When I told him the price he was blown away. He came back over to me later and said that if I would have gotten a tool box just like the 72" 16 drawer Montezuma it would have cost me over $6000. (Posted on 10/17/11)

I did a lot of research on line and read reviews. Decided to order a MTZ-7224BK Because the reviews were positive and price was right.Had it shipped to my shop on time was packaged real well.I like the solid feel and smoothness of the draws.And finish is great .The one thing i found wrong was the swivel casters would hang up on the extra thick flat washers.I replaced with standard size hard washers.Never had a problem again.casters are strong and toolbox does not twist on uneven floor.I recommend this box to any body interested in quality at a fair price. (Posted on 8/31/11)

Wow, nice toolbox. I bought A 72 inch Montezuma for my son. He is enrolled in the diesel program here in Albert Lea ,MN. He is thrilled and hasn't quit smiling!!! WOHOO!! No problems with delivery right to the house. Thanks again Joe, will definitely recommend your products.. Blake and Tyler (Posted on 8/22/11)

I have been using my box for several months now. It is OUTSTANDING. The other mechanics in my diesel truck shop paid MUCH more for their boxes than I did (they are unhappy about that).
Anyway, the box is holding up very well - I'm into it a couple hundred times a day 6 days a week with no problems. Shannon walked me through the purchase ( I was nervous sending a stranger that much money through the internet), but I can recommend Strictly Tool Boxes and Shannon without reservation. I have recommended them to several friends, and will continue recommending them to everyone.
Thanks again to Shannon for a GREAT tool box at a GREAT price. (Posted on 3/15/11)

Found out about this site and the Montezuma branded tool boxes through Garage Journal and, after reading all the good reviews over there from members who've purchased here, I decided to take the plunge on this 72" tool box.

This box really has everything I need and then some. I love the color (orange) and the overall design of the box. The two shallow, full length drawers beneath the deep top drawer are hard to find in other brands/boxes and that's one thing that really made me finally pull the trigger on this.

The quality is top notch, right up there with the truck brands, at least in my opinion. It's also worlds apart from big box store brands. The extra bracing on the bottom of the drawers and the bottom of the box, the beefy casters and the high quality slides really do set this tool box apart from anything else I've looked at so far.

As far as shipping, the service was prompt and the packing was outstanding. Not a scratch on it and the customer service has been nothing short of superb. I could not be more happy with my purchase and look forward to doing business with this site in the future. I highly recommend this tool box, because I honestly believe there is not a better value to be found elsewhere.
(Posted on 11/25/10)

This box is absolutely wonderful. The drawers are smooth and quiet, the box is solid and beautiful. I had a stainless "shoe box lid" made to cover the wood top. The other guys in my shop all have commented on quality of the box, and the LOW price I paid. I could not be happier. Thank You to Shanon for your advice.
I must say, I was uncomfortable sending money to someone I didn't know for a toolbox that I hadn't seen. But am I glad I did. This is the best investment I could have made. I HIGHLY recommend Strictly Tool Boxes and Shannon.
Thanks again Shannon.

THE GUYS AT STRICTLYTOOLBOXES ARE GREAT SALES PEOPLE AND KNOW THERE TOOLBOXES IN SIDE AND OUT. THE SIZE / QUALITY WAS JUST WHAT I NEEDED. THE ONLY BAD POINT WAS IT WAS NOT MADE IN THE USA. I HAVE AREADY TALKED TO MANY PEOPLE ABOUT THE GREAT QUALITY, AND WOULD NOT HESITATE TO RECOMMEND THE EXTREME TOOL BOX TO EVERYONE THAT IS LOOKING FOR A TOP QUALITY TOOL BOX AT A FAIR PRICE. IT IS A HEAVY DUTY TOOLBOX WITH GREAT QUALITY. (Posted on 4/9/12)

Suprised with the quality..guys were easy to work with! Trucking service wasnt too good..but Joe worked with me as promised..will be getting another toolbox soon (Posted on 4/9/12)

I had been shopping for a large tool box for my shop and actually had one ordered from the other guys, for 4 weeks my order had gotten lost in the corporate world and nobody would be honest with me as to what happed. So I cancelled my order and starting shopping again, I found Strictly Toolboxes via a Google search and man have I been pleased. These guys deliver great products as well as great customer service, my tool box was delivered within 10 days and that was with me delaying it 3 to 4 days for a family vacation. I would recommend that anybody who is looking for a good quality product as well as great customer service use Strictly Toolboxes for their next purchase.. (Posted on 1/3/12)

What a deal. I received this tool box a couple of weeks ago. My friends couldn't believe the deal that I received. Especially the fact that it was shipped to my doorstep! Love everything about it and have recommended this to several of my friends. (Posted on 1/2/12)

I love this tool box. I can't believe I almost paid double the price for another brand and for what? A name? Please. I work to earn money not spend it. My coworkers have the other guys tool boxes and feel like they've been duped. I've been thinking of getting another one to use at home but haven't quite convinced myself (or my wife) yet. I would like to see Strictly toolboxes offer a cover for this tool box as we steamclean the shop floor once a week. Also maybe a roll around with a few drawers and worktop. (Posted on 9/10/11)

This tool box is amazing. i could not have bought anything better for the money. Everyone that i work with compliments me on how nice it is. i have had it for a few months and it is holding up great. The customer service that came along with this was great i knew exactly when it was going to be delivered and thee shipping was so fast. I would recommend strictly toolboxes to anyone.

When this Extreme tool box arrived at my door i was very impressed they really packed them well ,upon opening and inspecting i could not believe how well built they were ,i was very skeptical at first but when i talked with shannon he assured me that i would be very pleased when i saw them and if not he would pay to take them back, that means alot when you make a lifetime investment ,these tool boxes really do compare to the major brands and you can bet that extreme tools will become among the best !

Great box same as tool truck for less money. I got a shiny black one and love it. If you want to move it a lot get the faultless casters. This is a heavy box because of the quality. Get yours before they get a big name and raise the price. Unless you like to pay more. I don't know if I will ever be able to fill up this tool box, which is great. It came well packed on the truck and I had no trouble. strictly and extreme, you rock. Thanks!! (Posted on 2/21/11)

I am very satisfied with my toolbox, it's very strong and craftsmanship is excellent. I've mounted it on my truck and have had several bad rain storms since and not a drop of water has penetrated it. Plenty of room to grow. (Posted on 4/7/12)

I have had this toolbox now for about a month, and have used it alot. This tool box works great for me as a top for a roll around cart or for outside of work projects. If you use the toolbox for a service truck there is a hole in the back that will allow water to come in, not a big deal for a rubber grommet. Don't worry about the gas shocks holding up your sockets it can handle it and then some. The only down side that I have found is that impact sockets are too big for the space between the pegs. You have to skip pegs for some sockets, but these are up to 36mm sockets. Same way with your wrenches if your are hanging gear wrenches, but you can make them fit. Finally if you want to hang your rachets up it will work if they dont have a rubber grip at the bottom, or if they do a carbide bit can persuade them. Overall I work in a shop and in the field for a steel mill, and this tool box has really help me keep up with tools. It also makes you more proficient, time is money and this tool box helps. I would recommend this toolbox to any mechanic. Alot of the guys in my shop now are saving money to buy one.

I have owned Craftsman tool boxes all my life, not anymore. The money I spent over the years was a lot more than the cost of this one. When I needed to purchase a new toolbox I went online and started looking for a tool box that would hold all my tools and last till retirement. This tool box will go the distance. It has a lot of metal in it and ball bearing drawers. The deep drawers are great for the thicker tools (air and battery tools, large wrenches, 3/4"drive, and batteries). The 2 1/4" drawers are the right depth for the smaller wrenches, sockets, pliers, screwdrivers, and other small diameter items. If you are undecided about the 24" versus 30" Montezuma, go 30. You will not believe how much difference 6" makes; it is like having an extra tool box as-far-as square inches are concerned. The hutch is money well spent for me. In my line of work documentation is produced as you reassemble motors. The top of the tool box is the right height to write. With the hutch, papers are protected and manuals are kept close at hand. Again the useable space in the hutch is massive. I love it.

I have had several coworkers look over the tool box, and am impressed with the quality. The more I use this toolbox the more I like it. I have to say it did take me awhile to relearn the location of my tools, but that's true with any tool box. I have to say this is the least expensive tool box, as-far-as the quality is concerned! Par none!

By far the best money ever spent for a toolbox. Every person that has walked through shop has stopped to inspect this tool box. The techs cannot believe the value compared to the tool trucks, nor could they believe how heavy this thing is built. It took several men to pick the hutch up and onto the tool box. I am beyond satisfied. Will recommend this to anyone in the market for a large well crafted tool box. (Posted on 3/13/12)

I have owned many Sxxx-Ox and Mxx tool boxes. The Montezuma I just purchased is the best quality and value of any I have owned thanks strictly tool boxes. You have earned all my business! (Posted on 1/6/12)

*This box is used in a Professional Automotive setting everyday within a very large Toyota Dealership*

I ordered the Montezuma Elite 72" with Hutch about 3 months ago and feel I have had enough time with it to give a thorough review. First off, let me say that I couldn't have been happier with the service given to me by Strictly. Joe is incredible, answers all questions and gives you updates on everything. He really gets involved right about when the box is delivered, making sure you, the buyer, understands the entire delivery inspection process. When the box is delivered, it looks as well packaged as any highly important package. It took a good deal of time to get the tool boxes out to check them over. I looked over every inch of the both pieces and found absolutely nothing wrong. There was a hole punched through the exterior wood board, but there was so much protective foam and packaging inside, that nothing got through. This is a testament to their incredible packaging job, and the care they give when delivering your tool box.

After everything is out and setup, I really got to take a good look at how massive this thing is! These tool boxes are tanks, and are very solid. Believe me, the 1400lbs that this setup is quoted at, is no exaggeration, there's a lot of steel in this tool box! It took 4 of us to lift the hutch up on the tool box. Only odd thing, is that I found I had to drill through the SS top to mount the hutch. Maybe I did it wrong? But i couldn't find any other way to mount it. The mounting hardware is hidden so no one would ever know. After the hutch was mounted, I was able to start playing with things. The hutch door opens with a little muscle required just because of how thick and rugged it is. As it rolls back in, it makes a nice thud when it engages it's stop. The ONLY complaint, is that it doesn't go in farther. I keep worrying i might bash my head on it, but when i looked at other hutches, it seems to be a typical trait of all hutches. So no points deducted! The shelf is way nicer than most would thing. Keeping things up out of the way, but still within reach is such a luxury that many in the shop get jealous about. As far as lighting, I have two 36" fluorescent lights. One on the backside of the hutch door (so when it opens its right above the shelf), and one under the shelf which really brightens up the work surface. I love the SS top with the textured finish. I get a lot of compliments on it, as no truck branded tool boxes have a top like this. It really does catch your eye when walking by.

When working on it, it is very solid and does not interfere with writing, as I was concerned about that. The drawers on the tool box are all very solid and open/close with authority. The large drawer up top is immense and will fit anything you throw at it. The fact that is also has two shallow "superwide" drawers below it are a HUGE plus. Most truck brands only offer one. With two, i can put longer screwdrivers/pry bar sets in the first, and in the second, my huge pliers collection. There's definitely no shortage on space in it. The drawer liners are very tacky and keep tools, etc from sliding around when closing or opening. They really are premium liners. The six sprung casters with 4 brakes really aid in moving this boat around. I honestly don't know how I would move this tool box over uneven surfaces without them. Not only do they work and look good, but they take stress of the tool box when rolling over rough surfaces. My tool box came with two polished, heavy duty handles, one for each side. I don't know if I got an extra or if you really get two, but it's nice when positioning it into a spot.

The paint finish is very nice and looks like automotive quality. I'm quite particular of my things and take very good care of stuff. I wax it once a week and wipe it down with mist detailer every night. So it has stayed looking incredible. It does seem to like fingerprints... But I'm sure every tool box does. All in all, i couldn't be happier. It makes my job easier everyday and is a joy to work with. I come in every morning smiling when I see it. It really is THAT nice. I was actually looking at a Mxxxx 5s box for more than what I spent on this, except it was only 56" wide and 25" deep with NO hutch. I knew it just wasn't going to cut it size wise. This tool box fits the bill perfectly. Huge size, incredible quality, and an amazing value. I have been recommending Montezuma (through Strictly of course) to anyone looking for a new tool box. A few apprentices have just started a bit ago and are in need of a tool box that will suit them for awhile without breaking the bank. I showed both of them this site and they immediately decided to bail on the little, overpriced Sxxx-Ox boxes they were looking at. They were even discounting them 50% and were still more than an equivalent Monty. Another Master Tech here claimed he was going to order a Hutch for his Mxxxx after seeing mine just because of how expensive the Mxxxx one was. I seem to be converting a good deal of techs in the shop. The others just walk away with their tail between their legs, knowing they spent 3x what i did for a tool box that in my opinion, isn't any better. Montezuma is about to take over. With their prices and quality, I can't see any reason why they wouldn't. (Posted on 9/5/11)

I've been using my 72" Montezuma Elite with the hutch for about 9 months now. It gets used 10 hours a day, 4-6 days a week. It's a vault. If I had to spend the money all over again, I'd still buy the Montezuma. I shopped the tool truck brands, and the Montezuma simply offers more for the money. With the money you save compared to other brands, you can buy a lot of tools to go in your new box.

I was nervous about buying such a big-ticket item online, but the customer service I got from Strictlytoolboxes.com eased my mind. They answered all the questions I had and kept me updated on the status of my tool box from the factory to my front door. The tool box comes shipped in a very stout and tightly-sealed container.

The only thing I would improve on this tool box is that the hutch door sticks out about 3 inches too far when it is in the open position. I wish it was recessed a little further so I could lean in more when I'm using the stainless steel work surface. Also, if you like a shiny tool box, the paint on the Montezuma is almost a semi-gloss matte finish. It doesn't have the deep, automotive-quality, glossy finish of the tool truck brands.

The overall quality of the tool box is excellent. I expect it to last well beyond my lifetime. The thickness of the steel, the strength of the drawer slides, and the security of the locking system are all professional grade. The drawers are very deep and come with nice liners pre-installed. Once you see a Montezuma in person and realize the money you can save, you have to ask yourself if it's worth a few thousand dollars more just to have a tool truck brand emblem on your tool box.

Spending the extra money for the hutch was an excellent move for me. With a $20 48" fluorescent utility light fixture mounted in the top for extra light, and an $80 dorm fridge set on top, I now have a super nice set-up. This box keeps me more organized and helps my work day go smoother. I'm no longer wasting time rummaging though a completely full tool box, losing tools and sometimes damaging them from having to cram the drawers shut. I also love the fact that the hutch comes with a shelf, and you can mount more shelves and racks on the inside walls for additional storage.

If I have to leave work due to a family emergency, I can throw my tools inside the hutch, pull the door down, lock it, and be gone in a few minutes, instead of wasting time having to individually put tools back in their drawers. Once you get used to the convenience, extra storage capacity and additional security that a hutch offers, you won't want to go back to a regular tool box.

This tool box stands tall, gets noticed, and has a presence all its own in the shop. It's my office and it helps me make money. I did a lot of research and hemmed and hawed over pulling the trigger on this purchase, but ever since I first un-crated my Montezuma, I've had no regrets. If you need a bigger, better tool box to get the job done without the ridiculous price tag, buy a Montezuma and don't look back. (Posted on 8/28/11)

I’ve got a sxxx-ox tool box and needed a bigger one as i was getting more tools. so i bought this big Montezuma combo for the price its very hard to beat, i use it every day at lake houston automotive 6 days a week, and had no problems, the people i bought it from were very helpful, and very fast good delivery right to the shop. i now hooked up a light in the hutch, and a big power strip in the bottom of the hutch. still no problems. very happy with the whole deal and buying process. not a flimsy toolbox! up there with my friends sxxx-ox epic huge tool box, very happy to say it is in the same category at less than half the price. thanks strictly toolboxes (Posted on 8/26/11)

I am a professional industrial mechanic who builds, repairs, and installs heavy equipment such as high pressure diaphragm compressors, pilot plants, and chemical reactors. My tool box does not get moved often, but it is full of heavy tools. Wrenches up to 2" and sockets up to 4" are used on a daily basis. These drawers will be loaded up with up to 200lbs, so I hope they last! I searched for almost a year for a tool box that would work, and these Montezuma's seemed like the best deal. I hope my review answers a lot of the questions that are not answered by the product description.

About the tool box:
Purchasing: Buying the tool box could not have been any easier. I called Shannon up and asked a bunch of detailed questions. He was quick with the detailed answers. He had to check delivery time on the hutch, and got Montezuma on the phone while I waited. He had an answer within 1 minute. After ordering the tool box, Joe called me the next day to let me know the tool box has shipped, and to confirm the emails that he sent me detailing the shipping information.

Delivery: The tool box was delivered in 3 business day (impressive from KS to PA over a holiday weekend). It arrived safely with no visible damage to the packaging. The FedEx driver was patient and gave me no problems doing a full inspection of the tool box. He admitted that he was very curious to see what a 1400 lb, $4000 toolbox looked like. The crate was solidly built around the tool box, and the hutch is folded up and flat packaged with about 200 sq ft of 1/2" thick styrofoam. Well done Montezuma!

Assembly: The rolling cabinet comes with the wheels attached, so no assembly is required. The detents in the drawers are very tight and it will feel like the drawers are locked, but they are not. The keys and spare detents were in the top widest drawer. In order to attach the hutch, you need to remove the stainless top of the rolling cabinet, flip it over and finish the holes that were started in the MDF. I drilled 1/2" diameter holes so that there would be sufficient clearance. (started out with 3/8", but it was too tight) Metric hex head bolts are supplied for attaching the hutch to the rolling cabinet. They work, but should probably be about 1/4" longer. The 2 bolts that go in the rear are difficult to install, so I replaced them with socket head cap screws(M8 i think??). The hutch is supplied with (4) lifting eyebolts which will make installation much easier if you have access to a crane/engine hoist/forklift and lifting straps. The lifting points have an M12 thread. (my toolbox came with (3) M12's and (1) M10, but luckily I had extra M12's in my arsenal of rigging supplies). The hutch is folded flat for shipping, and I thought it would be difficult to assemble. It is hinged at 3 points and goes together very easily. I lifted it by the 4 points with an overhead crane (see pic) and it just about fell together into place. Once assembled and installed on top of the rolling cabinet, i had a bit of difficulty figuring out what was keeping the hutch door from sliding. There are two bolts holding in small angle clips in the top rear left and right corners. Remove these two bolts and the hutch door will slide freely.

Dimensions: The strictlytoolboxes dimensions for the tool box must include the lifting eyes. The actual dimensions are 73" tall (without eyebolts), 72 7/8" long (79 1/8" with handles), with the hutch being 26.5" tall.

Hutch: The door is very heavy and solid, you almost need two hands to open/close it. The pegboard is strong enough to hold a good bit of weight, and it has standard 1' spacing with 1/4" holes. The shelf is 12.5" deep and made of a 300 series stainless (not magnetic). It is adjustable to 5 different positions from about 12" high to 20" high. It seems like it will easily hold 100+ lbs. The lock on the hutch is the same design as a standard garage door with full length solid round bar on each side the securely locks into a slot. The bar is 5/16" (8mm) thick. The heavy door slides easily on 1.5" nylon rollers, and has a heavy full-length piano hinge.

Rolling Cabinet: The top is 1" thick MDF, with a 400 series stainless top (magnetic). The stainless is about 1/16"-3/32" thick, with a nice small checkerboard pattern. The pattern is nice, because scratches will blend in. The drawer detents are very tight to the point that it almost feels locked. I guess they have a to break in a little bit. The drawers are very solid and stiff, you can open the widest drawer by pulling on the very edge of it. The stiffeners underneath the drawers help a lot in keeping the drawers from bowing under heavy load. The wheels are great! They make it very easy to move the tool box into tight areas. Because there are four turning wheels, the tool box can be pushed right into an opening along the wall (the spring on the center two wheels will allow them to lift up and be out of the way). I can move the full loaded tool box in and out of the opening you see in the pics by myself.

Finally a Conclusion: After searching for almost a year for a perfect tool box, I found it. Do not look any further-you won't find a better product for the price or better customer service. (Posted on 7/19/11)

I am a service technician for a Land Rover dealership and have been looking for a new / used 3 bay (72") tool box for almost a year. My local truck tool dealer has been helping me find something new or used within my price range, with no luck. Almost everything has been over $6000 for just the lower tool cabinet. I found Strictly Tool Boxes online. After a few months of research, I decided to purchase the 72" 17 drawer with hutch for under $4000 to my door. Even though the tool box was on back order the guys kept me informed on when it would arrive.

The tool box arrived (paid for the lift gate shipping, do it do it) with the tool box packaged very well. The hutch came folded up on top. I thought that I would be assembling the hutch for hours. It was very easy, just folded out the sides, 2 bolts held down the top to the sides and installed it on the box (with some help from other techs). Here are my only two small issues with the whole box. The directions did not say to flip the metal tool box top over to drill it out to have access to bolt down the hutch and how to remove the shipping brackets for the door of the hutch. A very quick phone call to Strictly toolboxes and Montezuma fixed these issues. They also said that they would look at these small things and fix it for the rest of you!!

The tool box itself is very professional at amateur prices! The quality is up there with the truck brand tool boxes. The drawers open and close very smooth and solid. The spring loaded casters are as good as what is on my Sxxx-Ox tool box. The stainless steel tool box top looks great and I have had no problem using it as I need to being a technician. The tool box came with 3 different keys for the main tool box, the lock box and the hutch. I called Strictly Tool Boxes and they had no problem sending me a matching set. Some people like having the security of 2 or 3 different keys, but my janitorial key ring can not handle 2 more new ones. They had a new set out the next day. After getting it set up, I actually made some of my fellow technicians mad. After seeing what I got for the price that I paid, they were concerned with their purchase of their toolboxes. I know that 2 other technicians now have their tool boxes for sale so they can upgrade like I did to the Montezuma 72"! If Strictly keeps selling to all these professional technicians they will need a used tool box section to help us sell our tool boxes (hint hint).

Thank You (Posted on 7/1/11)

I needed a new tool box but didn't want to pay the high price of the local tool distributors. So, I did an internet search and found the Montezuma. I was skeptical of the low price but after ready through reviews and forums, I decided to purchase this tool box. The tool box was on back order so it took a couple of months to get it. It was well worth the wait. I am very impressed with the customer service. They told me exactly when it would arrive and kept me informed. The tool box arrived in a new wooden crate that was well put together. I didn't realize how massive it was until I opened the crate. The tool box is huge and drawers are very deep. It arrived scratch free, had all the parts and everything worked. As big as the tool box is, it rolls very easy. The four swivel casters and two fixed center casters make it a breeze to move. I strongly recommend anyone looking for a nice but inexpensive tool box to buy a Montezuma. (Posted on 6/23/11)

I was looking for a new tool box for about a year and was seriously considering trading my Snap-On double bank in for a triple bank... I'm glad I didn't!!! I stumbled across this website looking for other options and I was just like everyone else... skeptical. I researched these tool boxes online for quite some time, after the guys at Strictly toolbox answered all of my questions and I realized this was most likely gonna be a solid toolbox I gave in and ordered one. It was shipped via Saia and I was so anxious to get it I went to the terminal and picked it up, so it only took about 4 days to get here. I have had it for about a month and a half now and I am extremely pleased with this tool box, I really like it better than my Snap-On. If you look at the picture that has both of my toolboxes in it you can see the difference of the two toolboxes and I paid a lot more for the little one than I did the big one. The only thing I don't really care for is the detents on the drawers but the tool box comes with different detents and I haven't tried them yet. I love the fact that this tool box comes standard with the stainless steel top and the spring loaded casters. I have been telling all of my buddies and people that I deal with in the field about these toolboxes. This tool box truly is just as good as any big brand name tool box and thousands cheaper... I know everyone says the same thing but it is the truth. If I decide I need more tool space you can bet I'll be getting the topper for this toolbox. (Posted on 4/5/12)

It's a great tool box I highly recommend it to anyone and everyone. I love this toolbox, and it is perfect for what I use it for. (Posted on 3/26/12)

I have been researching the high end toolboxes for more than a year. I looked at everything from budget to high end tool boxes. The lower end would not cut it in my line of work and the high end tool boxes were way out of my price range. I ran across StrictlyToolBoxes.com and was very hesitant to jump on the Montezuma bandwagon, only because I have never seen one in person. To make a long story short, I took the chance and I can say, I think this is probably the best surprise I have ever had when buying online.
The toolbox was shipped with so much padding it took me longer to unpack it than to stock it with my tools. The only complaint I have with my entire purchase is with the shipping company. There was a little damage to the back but I couldn't do anything about it because the shipping company Saia had someone other than myself sign for it. I should have been the ONLY one authorized to sign for my box. Anyway, the toolbox was shipped extremely fast. The toolbox matches the best boxes I have seen in quality. I have people come up to my box and can't believe I have twice the toolbox they have for a third of the price.
Bottom line, buy this toolbox if you are in need of a heavy duty, great quality and extremely heavy tool chest. I believe that this tool box will last me the rest of my career. Once I decide that I am in need for more room, you can bet that I will be purchasing a top box from Strictly Tool Boxes. And one more thing, if you have ever heard of the term “supply and demand”, you will understand what I am about to say. You better buy one of these soon because once the cats out of the bag about these toolboxes, the price will start to match the quality.

I love my new tool box and recommend all my friends to check out www.Strictlytoolboxes.com. Great deal on a solid toolbox! (Posted on 3/19/12)

My husband has been a Mechanic for close to 30 years spending the last 20 plus working on heavy equipment. We have bought many toolboxes over the years including Snap-on, Mac, Craftsman and other but this Montezuma by far is the best he has ever had. He is so impressed by it in many ways. He was a little skeptical when he saw the price -- wasn't sure of the quality he would get but it is the best he has ever used. The price is a great deal -- awesome value for the money, delivery is not only free but easy and quick. The toolbox is of the highest quality - - Sturdy, strong deep draws to fit everything with ease. Really there is just no better deal out there and now he will never purchase from anywhere but Strictly Toolboxes again. Also their customer service is top notch -- always get a live person that picks up by the 2nd ring and they are happy to answer all your questions.

If you are looking for a new toolbox then I highly recommend the Montezuma Elite -- it is an exceptional value and a great product.

Of all the tool boxes I have checked out, this one gets the trophy! I have studied every make and model from the most expensive Snap-On to Kobalt, Craftsman to Harbor Freight, Matco to Husky, and Montezuma could not be beat. Price, storage capacities, weight capacities, quality of material and workmanship, ease of ordering, courtesy of employee, and delivery time were all outstanding. I highly recommend Strictly Tool Boxes to everyone I see looking at tool boxes now. In the photos I posted you will see two pics of myself AND my brother standing in one of the long drawers and one of the small drawers. Both drawers had a 500 pound weight capacity. Together, my brother and I weigh about 420 pounds and the drawer never even flexed. We were even able to move the drawer easily while still standing in it. If I could post a video of it I would. I hope I can find enough tools to fill this massive tool box and then have to buy another one just for my specialty tools. I hope you are as happy with your purchase as I am. (Posted on 1/22/12)

I am a full time diesel mechanic at an International dealership. All 8 other mechanics in my shop have 72" Snxp-xn boxes with hutches. I have worked out of my buddies 72" snxp-xn tool box that he wasn’t using for the past 9 months till I could save up enough to buy my own. I stumbled across this site while looking for used tool boxes and was skeptical at first. I did as much research as I could, comparing drawer arrangements, weight ratings, and the gauge of steel used in construction. Finally I ordered a 72" Montezuma with a stainless top and faultless castors. It arrived 2 days later in great shape.... the packaging was incredibly thorough; 1/4" plywood outside of 3/4" styrofoam with thick plastic covering the tool box itself.

One look at the tool box and you can tell that these tool boxes are built well. The drawers slide very smoothly and securely on the rollerbearing slides and extend all the way out without being difficult to return inward. The handles that you install on both ends are very classy looking and are very strong.

Several items that are different but not necessarily worse than the tool truck boxes are as follows: The stainless top is textured slightly which makes it a little hard to write on, the drawer detents are rather stiff but the tool box has softer spare detent blocks and instructions on how to install them, and all the end castors swivel which make it easy to maneuver but also make the box slightly more difficult to push in a straight line.

Things i like about this tool box... the extra security drawer, the great paint job it has, the no-skid drawer liners that come with the tool box, the 2 wide shallow drawers underneath the socket drawer; I use one for wrenches and the other for screwdrivers and pliers, I also like having a handle on each end of the tool box. The thing I like best is that all the other guys in the shop are asking the tool truck dealer why their tool boxes cost so much!!! After seeing my tool box, one of my coworkers said that Snxp-xn is becoming a brand name cult!

That said, I have been working out of it for 2 weeks and I love the tool box! All the other guys in the shop have been amazed at how nice this tool box is for a 3rd of the price that they paid for their tool boxes. I would be amazed if anyone else who saw my tool box would still pay $10,000 for a tool truck tool box! I would never hesitate to convince anyone to get this tool box over more expensive tool boxes. As long as Montezuma keeps making them and strictly-toolboxes keeps selling them I will never buy anything else from anyone else! (Posted on 1/20/12)
