Tool Box Comparison

(Note:  these are not tools we sell.  These are less expensive tools I bought for the grandkids.   For really top quality tools look here.) 

The grandkids are growing up and they like using tools.  Howard wants a “hammering log” for Christmas.  He wants a big piece of wood where he can drive nails.

I went on line looking for kid’s tool kits.  All I found were from Lowes so I bought all five varieties.  They duplicated one set and shorted me on another one.

Here are my reviews of kid’s tool kits.

Kid’s Tool Boxes

I bought the Lowes online for $5.97.  This is the box with the orange top.  I tried to stand on it and it broke as soon as I put any weight on it.  So I went to Home Depot and spent $6.97 on a bigger tool box that I could stand on without breaking it.

Lowes RTB PLASTIC TOOLBOX

Item#:128453 / Model#:TB0011 / $ 5.97

Pretty flimsy box.  Plastic is just too thin. Another $0.50 worth of plastic would have really helped.   Buy a real tool box somewhere.

Home Depot

731161025693 HMR16TOOLBX <A> $6.97 Tool box

Real tool box that a 240# man can stand on.
