![]() ![]() ![]() If we were to rank purely based on these specifications (and not considering price, brand reputation, additional features, aesthetics, or personal preferences): Gearwrench is the lightest, and while its steel gauges are competitive with the others, it doesn’t seem to offer any distinctive advantage in terms of build specifications. ![]() Its higher weight might be due to its broader width or possibly other components/materials used. Strictly Tool Boxes Tool Vault Elite is the heaviest and has the widest dimension, but it uses thinner steel for its shell and drawers. Harbor Freight Icon weighs considerably more than Gearwrench and Husky for nearly the same size, suggesting potentially better overall build quality. Its weight and dimensions are pretty average among the options. The Husky Pro has the advantage of a very thick 9 gauge base frame, which is likely to add significant sturdiness to the toolbox. A 3-year warranty on a $5000 tool cabinet seems paltry. On top of that, Husky and Harbor Freight back their professional tool storage roller cabinets with a lifetime warranty. Why buy this Gearwrench GSX tool cabinet, when competitors offer more for less money? But $5000, let alone $5500? That seems excessive to me.Īt such pricing, I’d expect the Gearwrench GSX tool box to be a bit more… I don’t know, innovative?Īs harsh as it might sound, Gearwrench’s latest flagship tool storage roller cabinet seems bland and overpriced. I try to ignore pricing when forming opinions about products sight-unseen and based on their online sales pages, but couldn’t do that here.Īt $3000, Gearwrench’s GSX tool box could potentially be competitive. Harbor Freight’s Icon professional roller cabinet is $2999, and also has higher drawer load specs. $5000 at independent dealers and $5500 at Home Depot?! I don’t see the value being there.Īt the time of this posting, $3500 gets you a Husky Pro cabinet – with better specs – plus a free add-on, such as a top hutch or side locker. The Strictly Tool Boxes Tool Vault Elite sells for $3895. However, Strictly Tool Boxes’ Tool Vault Elite has a 250 lb load rating for drawers with a single pair of slides, and 500 lbs for drawers with double pairs of slides. There are enough similarities in the designs to suggest a common OEM. This suggests it has 7 drawers with single sets of drawer slides and 10 with double slides. The Strictly Tool Boxes Tool Vault Elite, measuring 72-15/16″ width x 30″ depth x 46-1/4″ height, has 17 drawers and 27 pairs of drawer slides. The Gearwrench GSX cabinet does has 10 out of 18 drawers with double slides for 300 lb capacity each, which seems unusual to me. Harbor Freight’s Icon 73″ roller cabinet ($2999) has 265 lb drawer slides. But… the Husky Pro tool cabinet ($3500) I recently reviewed has 220 lb drawer slides.
