Kobalt Tool Cabinet and Chest – Product Review

By pmiller in Reviews Posted January 10, 2017 Tags Kobalt,review,tool cabinet,tool chest

Over the Christmas holiday break my Dad pointed out to me that my garage had gotten out of control. I had tools everywhere and only I knew the logic of my organization. Dad suggested that I get a tool cabinet and chest. The reason I didn’t have one was simple, I didn’t want to spend the money on organization, I would rather spend money on tools. This strategy lasted for awhile but as time went on my frustration with finding my tools became more frustrating. Dad was right, I needed a tool cabinet. I went to a few local hardware stores and found a few that I liked but they were all too expensive. I ended up going to Lowes and found a cabinet and chest that I liked, but unfortunately my local Lowes was out of stock. I ended up driving an hour to another city to get the cabinet and had to go to a second city to get the chest.

The tool cabinet and chest are not Kobalt’s top of the line tool cabinet and chests. I went with the lower end because I didn’t need the heavy duty ones for my shop.

I was not going to be opening and closing the drawers every day or wheeling the cabinet around.
