What Customers Are Saying
Customers praise the tool chest as excellent value for home use, with ample storage and smooth-gliding drawers that organize tools effectively. Many describe it as ideal for DIYers and home workshops, noting it meets expectations for the price. However, a substantial portion report significant durability concerns, including thin metal construction, drawers breaking or failing to lock properly, and misalignment issues. Some mention cosmetic damage upon arrival. Despite quality concerns, most customers find it worthwhile for casual home use, though it is not recommended for professional or heavy-duty applications.

This was a replacement for our old toolbox that had hurricane damage. The quality is not as good as our old one. The metal is thinner and the drawer glides are flimsy. Would not purchase again.

Craftsman Quality Is Gone
I have a 20 year old Craftsman toolbox in my garage that has held up really well. I also had a small 3-drawer Craftsman top chest in my service truck that's about 3 or 4 years old and it is also pretty stout. I've outgrew the 3-drawer and needed a 5-drawer box that would still fit in the compartment on my truck; so I picked up one of these from Lowe's. I noticed as soon as I un-boxed it that it was significantly thinner steel than my other Craftsman boxes. I had to cut off the lid because it's...
Hello Trevor, Thank you for your feedback on the CRAFTSMAN 1000 Series 26.07-in W x 17.49-in H x 12.1-in D 5 -Drawer Steel Tool Chest ( Black ) CMST2...

Great little toolbox.
Its definitely a nice toolbox with plenty of room to put sockets and wrenches in. Overall, I'm pleased with it. However it does seem to be made of a little thinner metal than i was thinking. It fits my purpose perfectly so I'm pleased with it.

Arrived filthy and not in original packaging.
Arrive in a plain brown box and had an greasy/oily substance all over the exterior of the tool chest. However, it didn't have any damage, unlike the bottom chest I bought with this.

Great for the Shop. Reinforce drawers for truck
The front drawer rail is reinforced but the back is not. Otherwise it is a well made box. I reinforced a set of drawers from previous purchase and used them in the new tool chest. With new tool drawer liners, the system performs great!

Flimsy steel; will not lock
Craftsman has completely fell by the wayside with toolbox construction. I needed a 5 drawer box so I purchased this one based on my experience with Craftsman at an early age and I am very sorry I did. The sheet metal is presumably the cheapest steel available and it is only .024 thick. That's 23% less than 1/32 of an inch. Let that sink in. The lock on my box would not lock every drawer and when I took it apart I found out it was because of the thin construction. Even a gentle pull when the box...
