Very impressed with my Montezuma 56" toolbox
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)

56 " Montezuma
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)

Excellent Buy
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)

awesome box, sturdy!!
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%.

Extremely Satisfied Customer!
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)

Very Satisfied customer
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)

Perfect Toolbox
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)

Great Box!
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)

Really nice tool box!!!
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)

Nice Tool Box
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)

Awesome
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.

Good value for home mechanic
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)

Nice big toolbox.
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)

All around great experience.
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)

I'm a fan
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)

Can't beat the price!
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)

Best toolbox
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)

best deal I have seen on a toolbox
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)

56" MONTEZUMA
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

56" Montezuma Tool Boxes
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)

got to have this awesome tool box
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.

no regrets
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)

56" Montezuma Tool Boxes
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)

Montezuma 56" 21 drawer combo
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)

56" Montezuma Tool Cabinet and Top Chest
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)

Great tool box for the $$
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)

56" Montezuma Tool Boxes
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)

Bar none...best value on the market
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)

Outstanding Product and Service
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)

Great tool box, excellent quality, good value, fast shipping.
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)

56" 21 drawer Montezuma tool bx
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)
