I'll take the T frame of my Matco MB7525 over ANY snap on box any day. 12 years now and it's been carted all over the country and it's like new still. The snap on has that weak riser wall that doesn't connect to the top anywhere. It's wobbly as hell. No thanks.
I love my Craftsman Pro Series and Industrial roll cabs/top chest. $400 each used. VS $8500
$8100 , That buys a LOT of tools.
One is goin on 20 years old, still works.
WATERLOO all the way!
I like my matco tool box that I had even fell out of truck well unloading it never hurt it at all not even a scratch
Jason I agree “similar forces”. I also liked how he pushed all his wooden models to the side to get them to fall over.
Y'all say what you want. I've been a Senior Master Ford diesel tech for lil over 8 years now and my Snap-On KRL1023 and hutch has been the best investment so far. Homebodies, don't bother. Real techs have Snap-On. There's a big ole American Flag posted on the back of it. Made In The USA, that's why I buy Snap-On. Don't complain about lack of jobs in this country if you don't su
JeepinBoon I have a snap on box and love it. But you know a lot of them are made in Canada. Its a drag about all the American companies moving out of the US. But are government hates them. I live in California and they do all they can to drive companies away. It sucks. I do my best to by American but its getting so hard. And the cost of living out here is so high and I'm a Pressures washer mechanic. The snap on guy get 20% of what I make right now.
Jake Tierney actually you are incorrect. Snapon tool storage boxes are made in Algona, Iowa. I know because I am proud to say I make these tool boxes all day long in Algona, Ia. Soooo...yeah
***** you think knowing all that you know makes you better than everyone else? Well sorry to burst your egomaniacal self absorbed egotistical self-centered bubble, but you ain't better than ANYbody. You still the biggest ugliest dumbest douchbag in the history of douchieness!!!
Ive had my master series tool box for 8 years now and i love it best tool box investment i ever made.
It is a cheesy video. However they absolutely make the best boxes.
Expensive as hell but worth it, if you can afford it.
I've had my 46in Cornwell for 30 years and the drawers still glide smooth and that's after dropping it off a truck. Also have a cheap craftsman 40in roller with top. It's cheap and thin I've used it the last 4 years every day and the drawers open and close like they should loaded heavy. You'll never get your money back buying a high priced box and it's the tools that make your money.
I have an older Cornwell which was made by Remline and the bottom frame had to be reinforced because it started sagging. Don't get me wrong I love the box but they were weak when holding lots of weight for extended use.
"We applied (similar forces)" yeah ok. ..
+S Nguyen My thoughts exactly.
its all about personal preference. i have a matco box in my garage at home and i have a snap on box that i work with everyday at my dealership. both are very nice boxes, both hold up well and out perform craftsman, mac, and cornwell(in my opinion) i personally like my snap on box better, the drawers feel smoother when they open plus they have a latch release instead of the matco box where i have to yank my drawers open
Snap On makes the best box imo. Best box I have ever owned!
To be a professional you need professional tools. I trust snap on tools. They're respected in every trade and are guaranteed a lifetime. Buy once!
I've seen very few videos demonstrating the limits of Snap-on products vs the cheaper competitors. I have seen a video comparing Snap-on combination wrenches and Craftsman. A threaded hole locked in a vice, and a bolt threaded in. The snap on was able to crank down the bolt until it sheered the bolt off. Very impressive considering that the craftsman and other brands slipped off when the jaws of the open end on the wrench opened up a little. But I have never met a bolt that my craftsman tools can't tighten sufficiently. Until I do, I will stick with what I have. As for the box they go in, lol. I've done without one for so long, that if I were to switch to a large tool box like the ones in the video, I wouldn't have any use for the dozen or so canvas bags that I currently haul my tools around in. lol. I don't work in a shop, so I don't need to lock them up from fellow employees, or anything. and once I get to working, I put the few that I'm using on a rolling work table. Until I am put under the conditions that would require these expensive tools, It's just not reasonable to spend the money (that they're probably worth) on them. I probably never will. Like I said, I haven't met a bolt that my current gear couldn't work with. And if it breaks, (which it never has) I can return/replace it easily. Not many snap-on trucks stop by military bases, and certainly none in my drive way.
I can't seem to recall EVER hooking up a frame straightener to my tool boxes. If you ever move your boxes across a garage floor it's uneven no matter what so they flex depending on weight distrbution (Where you put the tools inside). Hell, most shops you set your boxes in one spot until you leave that business! Unless you work in a climate controlled shop the weather affects the condition of the boxes more than anything else anyway. Just buy what you can afford at the time.
I have a master series snap on box (given to me by my company), but I have to say, I’ve never in my career as a professional technician seen or even heard about a tool box collapsing.
I know that Snap-on has the best tools EVER, but I just cant AFFORD them! Craftsman's tools have life time replacement, no questions asked. Then factor in that the price is manageable, I just buy Craftsman... Now if I had the money, I would have a garage FULL of Snap-on tools! (No, I'm not a tightwad or just cheep, I'm still in collage and just using a cheaper alternative.)
...support the "American" companies. And yes, I dread moving this big azz boat anchor. I've done it once, 400 miles, and will have to do it again. KRL1023 is 2,000 lbs empty... Uhaul is screwed...
I can't speak for mechanics who earn a living with their tools as I am a home user and mainly use my tools to tinker with classic cars and my amateur radio antennas, but I do know that in everything, I always try to buy the best. When it comes to pliers, I get all of mine from Knipex; for power tools, usually the American made Makita or Swiss made Bosch (except hammer drill which is Snapon)., for the rest of my stuff, including the tool chest, it's Snap On. Best quality.
73 people don't own a Snap-On box
Never had any issues with any other boxes, they worked just as fine as a Snap On box . Save your money Harbor Freight boxes are pretty well made.
Half the SnapOn tools and boxes are made over seas , they won’t tell you that .there impact sockets today don’t hold up to the abuse like there sockets 20 years ago.
Anyone else get the feeling this video was tailored for kids just out of high school?
It's for high school and tech school graduates. I love my Matco box; 3 years, zero issues. 1 of my coworkers has had 2 Snap-On boxes with multiple drawer failures since I got mine.
Snap-on Matco Mac Craftsman cornwell its like Ford Chevy Dodge what you like is what you buy really no difference. And don't be like there is a difference I drove all three truck brands I prefer Fords and tools Craftsman for me just because they are cheap and easy to replace when and if they break. Thats the truth buy what you want to buy.
deffinately I think that snap on rigs alot of there videos. ive seen alot of tools ive even met the matco rep and when you ask them why there tool is "signifigantly better than anyone else" they kind of studder and make something up or say that there tool has something that everyone else always has. and i mean snap on is nice but when are you ever going to put that much side load on a box? and maybe its just me. i dont really want to spend more on my box than my car lol
Yeah... I agree. I have all snap-on tools, all the way through my box.. in a mac box. $16,000 worth of tools in an $800 box... whereas with snap-on, the same roll cab and top chest would have been about $2,650. One day I probably will break down and get a snap-on box, but not anytime soon
To me comparing a snap-on tool box with a craftsman one is like comparing a yaris to a camry , they are simply in different leagues.
This only applies to master series or KRA's too?
Fantastic 👌
Buy a Tig welder-3000$, get some sheet metal ,sliders and casters-let's say another 3000$. To see crocked face of snap on ,mac tools , matco tools or whatever guy there is- priceless!
Should have mentioned the Stanley Vidmar stuff is pretty tough. Used by the military and industry, but very, very expensive.
Joel B i was in the marines and we onlyy used armstrong tolls and pelican toolboxes
bergerk20 *tools and only
In the Canadian military the tools were a miss match of various brands and the tool boxes were often "Gray" brand. The old green military boxes I have no idea of the brand. The Vidmar cabinets were usually used by the supply chain to organize parts and are usually the cabinet systems in the purpose built shipping containers that we used. My next box will likely be vidmar, but snap-on is what I currently use.
expensive but those boxes never lose their value unless you beat them up
When you put as much engineering into your ridiculous pricing…well…you might sell more of them…
@Criztoferlee If you are in college, you could take advantage of Snap-On's credit program, and also their discounts! I'm getting just under 8 grand worth of tools for 3,896!
Snap On tools are very nice , especially if you have them in your hands eight hours a day, then you want confortable handles and solid engineering. But 64 dollars for a ratchetting screwdriver?? 290 bucks for a seven piece combination wrench set??
The stuff is awesome but waayyy overpriced. A good Snap on stack (Box only) will probably run 3500? when a Craftsman pro series is a grand.
Craftsman is owned by Matco, just food for thought.
ive had a few toolboxes 1 clarke,2 mac boxes,& my snapon stack wich wins hands down!both my mac tool boxes had trouble with the runners.if your a mechanic with a hefty tool kit buy the best snapon!
if you are only going to spend 4 grand or less on a tool box get a macsimizer and dont look back, anything more and its a toss up. unless you are wanting to drop your 3k-15k tool box from 8 ft or get it "caught" in the frame straighter, you might want to find another line of work. perhaps demolition might be better
A tool box will never make you money
A safe in your home makes no money either. However toolboxes and safes both protect the investment you put inside of them.
Kevin Thomas well said kid
snap on is the best my box is over 20 years old and still going craftsmen is good for home do it yourselfers but when you do it for a living snap on is the only way to go!
Snap-on makes the best tool in the world!
People bitch that Snap On is too expensive. Then they bitch when said company illustrates why it is better against other well known brands. I'd rather have a company call out its competitors, it may force them to improve.
only worth it if you live by your tools, even then its a little extreme. my tool box has been in the same location for 2 years why would I care about this
I personally do not own either. For the most you maybe right. But Ray Charles could see that Snap on has a better quality and resale value. I come from the old school that believes in most cases you get what you pay for. I also haven't seen the HF truck lately humm.
muy bueno me gusta,es comoda
actually I want the mobile work station
The guy cheats his demonstration with the wood blocks. Clearly he reinforced them for he snap on defense 3:55
I think that Snap-On make some of the best tools in North America but they cannot compete with the Germans (Stahlwille and Hazet) as far as quality. They are just as expensive as the German tools, just not as good.
stop making fun at the other guy just point out why yours are better
@stangbr0 I wrote it like that on purpose sound it out
perfect for ten dollar an hour diesel mechanic
You get what you pay for.Craftsman toolboxes are not pro grade,the spot welds are poorly done and fail called cheaply made.My father has an over 20 year old Snap On toolbox at his shop,drawers still open and closed although it was tipped over 3 times.if it was a Craftsman,get replaced every 6 monthes.
