i guess im just used to the ones at my school, 3 tall snap-ons, so we can't really have more than 2 open in a single toolbox, even then its a bottom one (air tools, hammers, etc) and a top one (screwdrivers, sockets, etc)

Baby bin laden does the same ---- everytime I tell him to go get his socks. He pulls out every drawer in his IKEA dresser and nails himself everytime. Sometimes I ask him if he was trying to end himself.

Sorry but I have to disagree on that one but I am also biased. The newer KRL series are very nice, but also very expensive. The Matco boxes are nice as hell for the money, but you will never find a KRL series Snappy falling over with all the drawers flying open. Like I said, I am also biased.

2 years ago before I bought this box I was looking at a snap on box the exact same size, I opened the top drawer and sat my fat *** right on the top drawer all the way extended (no tools unloaded) and when I went to push it back in... ahem, lets just say it didnt work to well after that hahaha. I just found the quality of the snap on boxes and the style of drawers, and "the name," didnt appeal to me to much, that and our snap on dealer is a ***** in our area so I had no reason to buy one. It's not like it was way more money either, it was only 600 more than my box.

In this instance I think it would have been really nice to have the snap on box simply because the drawers lock, but for everyday use I would hate that. The d-tents are setup really loose on my box because I like to open the drawers fast. But overall I really dont think it matters to much on who makes the box or the quality of the box when the laws of gravity are involved and have your 3 biggest drawers open on the bottom and you go to open the top which is also very heavy ---- is just gonna fall. It was entirely my fault and I really just wasnt thinking straight I guess, I was trying to clean and orginize everything.

Ah well,
