Icon has 22" drawers. Series 3 is 19.5" drawers. The Icon IS taller every so slightly. Icon is the box I want but the Series 3 is the price I want to pay.🤷‍♂️

@miguelmena1266 27 дней назад

No Icon has 25" drawers whereas US General has 22". Big difference

@MrDdaland Год назад

I bought 2 of the 56" Gen 2 a couple of years ago- wound up "loaning" one to a nephew starting out with mechanicing ( he really wanted a Snap On, but between just starting out and starting a family, it wasn't going to happen) Haven't heard him say a word about Snap On since . . .

You're my hero for enlightening me to the S&D. I have a snap on epiq at work & icon has the closest feel to it without paying tool truck prices. Everything seems to be 25-40% off. Nothing for me right now, but I'll keep checking.

@4GSR Год назад

I bought one of the General 54" series 2 roll aways couple years ago for primarily for storing raw material in it for my shop. The three lower drawers were tested to their limits on weight carrying capacity. Had to line the bottoms of the drawers with 1 x 12 lumber to keep the bottom from sagging. With all of the weight in the lower drawers, the cabinet started to buckle at the bottom between the long and short drawers. It's now setting on a stack of 4 x 4's to keep it from totally buckling into a disaster. The loaded down drawers are opened slowly so the ball bearing slides don't tear up. Yes, they are lubricated with some light grease. Overall, I'm quite satisfied with the cabinet. Thanks for posting the review. May have to buy a gen 3 in the future.

@notyourtypicalchad6778 Год назад

I grabbed the green Series 2 72' US General roller cabinet at my local Harbor Freight store on clearance two weeks ago. It had the clearance price of $1,299, but mine was the last one display with a few scratches and missing the tab drawer labels so the manager gave me an additional 10 percent off. THEN since I did not have a Harbor Freight credit card, I applied for the card, got approved, and got ANOTHER 10 percent off of the whole purchase I made including the roller cabinet(I bought a bunch of drawer organizers like the socket trays). I am VERY happy with this. Since the Series 2 and Series 3 are compatible, I plan to buy the green hutch and the side cabinets when they become available. This Series 2 consolidated three smaller triple stacked Craftsman tool carts. My primary tool carts are now this Series 2 72", a stacked gold series Craftsman, a blue collector edition Kobalt roller cabinet, and a Kobalt roller cart with 1/4" and 3/8" socket/driver set loaded drawer.

I like the new top box design with the micro hutch, but I would prefer if they deleted a row of drawers to make that hutch a little taller. That would give it more room for chargers and the big batteries.

@davejohn255 9 месяцев назад

I got the US G 2 72 a number of years ago with a -$200 coupon for $1K and sold my old 30 year old Craftsman . Other than adding rivets to tighten the drawers it has been great for everyday use. The right latch release doesn't bother me. Green one to go with my green tractors.🙂

@D3RPZILLA Год назад

The ICON box is quite nice. The series 3 boxes do look like a nice improvement but I'm more than happy with my 2 72" series 2 US General boxes that I picked up for around $1000 TOTAL for both, lol :D

@J_TRAIN Год назад

It’s funny because I remember buying my series 2 for 999 on a Black Friday sale years ago.

@bpsdetailing8822 Год назад

Also I think if you have a lot of tools even two of the 34” full service boxes would make more sense than one of the 72” boxes. The 34’s are on sale for $499 so even if you get two you are saving money and they will be easier to move if you ever have to move them.

@paulmysliborski4832 Год назад

That’s a great idea. I guess it just depends on how much space you have, and what you use them for. That’s the cool thing about all the different size combos. One of us “geniuses” will figure out something really cool. Lol!

@ryansnyder7444 Год назад

Well with the service boxes you lose about six inches of storage space, you also have less variety of depth. With the 72 you also have options for a hutch and upper cabinet to save square footage. The service carts are great for moving from one project to another, the 72s are better to keep at larger jobs, with more specialized tools, there pros and cons to both. You can get more bang for your buck with service carts, but more tools per square foot with the 72 and an upper cabinet

@craigchiddo2794 Год назад

The double long top drawers is nice

@paulmysliborski4832 Год назад

@richardblock4506 Год назад

I have a couple of the old Husky Tool Cabinets with the dedent draws but I am not a fan, they quickly stop holding the draws and if you move them across a shop the draws randomly open. The new Husky have the spring assist closing and that keeps the draws tight. The Gen 2 US General with the latch works but I've broken them and then the doors have nothing holding them. We'll see how good are the Gen 3, at least it looks like you can replace the draw locking strip without drilling out a rivet but it's all plastic and might not hold up.

@survivalSC Год назад

Harbor freight prices are treading up and up. Shipping cost must be killing them. The bottom 72 box probably cost them around 150 and it’s probably around 150 a piece in bulk for shipping. That’s about right 300 cost total with a 3.5x markup on avg.

@imdeplorable2241 Год назад

Shipping a 40 foot container from China is actually at 2018 rates, now. Last year, rates spiked at over $10,000 per container with some shippers charging $20,000 per container. Still, retailers must make up that extra cost from last year with this year's, (and next year's) merchandise.

@dancooper6002 Год назад

@@imdeplorable2241 Shipping prices going up is actually a good thing, it discourages foreign manufacturing. Would it not be great to have a US General that was actually made in...the US? Pittsburgh tools built in...Pittsburgh?

@Punkpsychobilly 3 месяца назад

@dancooper6002 In theory, yes. However the bulk of the American work force is now millennials and Zoomers who demand $50/hr to work at McDonald’s and can’t tie their shoes right without watching a RU-vid video. If these tools were made in the US, they’d be as expensive as Crap-On with flea market tool reliability. Manufacturing in the US is not viable unless you’re a millionaire who doesn’t mind spending $450 for a 3/8” ratchet.

@survivalSC 3 месяца назад

@@dancooper6002 sure that’s a great idea. But then the cost of the tool boxes would go up 200 percent and no one would buy them. Same with the hand tools. There was a time when made in the USA was great and China was terrible. Today made in USA for many things is not good. And made in China is really good and made in Taiwan is some of the best hand tools and other stuff. It’s a sad world we live in for our country. But in the end this is what people want I guess. It’s hard to be a large scale manufacturing country when our president has a war on oil and natural gas. They don’t want us to have cheap energy. But this is what people want when they vote for most democrats.

@dancooper6002 3 месяца назад

@@survivalSC False, you are spreading misinformation the cost would NOT go up 200%, that is the propaganda you have been fed by the Washington consensus.

I own a 72” series 2 box. It replaced an old 44” series 1 box, which replaced an even older 26” box. I want to see a series 3 in person, so I can compare it to my series 2. So far, as of this last Sunday, my local harbor freight store didn’t have the 72” series 3 in stock in their store on display. I’m going to check again this Sunday. I wonder if anyone who owns a series 2 box buys a series 3 box and does a side to side comparison.

Craftsman is back to making the made in USA red boxes we all know for so long. They have the ball bearing sliders and the drwawers snap into place. Takes a little effort to break then free and then those ball bearing sliders go to work. Smooth as ice even after 30 years! Ive had mine since about 1998 or so. Other than that the 5 inch caster wheels are only held with some rivets and i wouldnt want to overload the box. I still love it. They are not as large as these boxes you show here. My drawers are 22 inch by 16 inch. It works for me. I have limited space.

For storage yes the 3 have more storage going by the numbers but it doesn't because they make up the extra 200 in draw height and a taller height would only be good if you are going to stack tools on top of each other..

Strange how the icon is 3 inches deeper but can only get it in 4 different colors but 1000.00 more.

Do you know when or if the series 3 will launch in the smaller sizes?

Just like a lot of the new cars, BLACK Trim! I put out that much money for a new tool box, I want some CHROME handles. "Course, I'm old, but the black looks cheap to me. Any word from your contacts at HF about offering chrome trim packages?

@denoftools Год назад

They will be offering a conversion kit later this fall

@SkitzerPoindexter Год назад

Agreed. It looks cheap and you can't read the words on the badges... which make it look even cheaper.

Do we know when the other sizes will come out?

How long do you think it will be before some idiot slams the drawers or the hutch lid into that metal pole and causing a huge dent or two ruining a good box and hutch?

Lol! I just commented about the poles. ;D

Hey bear is the Green different shade than the series 2 box?

@denoftools Год назад

I have not seen it in person but I would doubt it. Would not make it very "backward compatible".

@@denoftools thanks. i agree but it sure looks different on the website. thanks again for the reply.

The bottom 72 series 2 has 4 more drawers than the series 3. That sucks

@dangrimes5078 Год назад

A friend of mine recently retired from a dealership. He had a huge Snap on toolbox. Granted it was old. Probably 30 years old. Anyway he sold it because he bought a smaller US General box for home. He told me the Snap on box was literally falling apart. My point is they don't last forever.

If I could give zero I would. I recently ordered a toolchest online,us general 72in to match the one I bought 7 months ago. It was on clearance, new series was coming. Order went through order in possessing. I wait about a month 21 biss days for ship, I hear nothing so I call first lady says they are looking for a shipper. So I wait another week hear nothing so I call and get a lady says sorry item is back ordered and may or may not show up from China and my order will be canceled card refunded is there anything else I can do for you she says. Mean while my card was charged the day I made my order and my credit score dropped aswell when they damn well know they don't have the chest. Harbor Freight is the worst

I like the way the series 2 looked better especially the verticle trim pieces that got deleted on the S3. I like the drawer latch better w the S3. The way the S2 don't open all the way is occasionally iritating.
