I am a professional mechanic at a GM dealer. I still have Cornwell, snap on tool boxes. I picked up the 72 inch Series III and honestly it’s an amazing box. Time will truly tell if you can’t handle a professional environment but for right now and what I paid for it hands down best box I own.
For When 27 x22 in purple , I’m looking forward to this to sit my tv in my room😍and to storage many books my iPad , some carded hot wheels some small diy tools , important files and kinda stuff , it ll look nice in my room
Harbor Freight.. Awesome looking toolboxes. I definitely need another toolbox because the three that I have my Matco 6s triple bay, my US General full bank cart and my small husky box are all filled to the rim.
Guys, you missed it on the drawer layout! I was so excited for the Series 3 to finally come out, MAINLY for the much desired and late to the game Hutch that most competitors had available for YEARS. I could only imagine how many more Series 2 chests could have been sold if a standalone Hutch was released years ago. I know it was holding me back from buying a Series 2 was the fear that a Series 3 would be released with a hutch that would not be compatible with older generation chests AKA the Icon hutch being strategically 1" longer at 73" making it impossible to retrofit on the 72" US General Series 2, which has been addressed with the Series 3 hutches being Backward Compatible with Series 2. Let me preface this by saying I am a huge fan of Harbor Freight and it's US General Tool storage options in the past as I have bought lockers and end cabinets in the past. So WHY so MANY DEEP DRAWERS on the Series 3??? Not only is that the case across the 72" lineup, but is also the case across ALL sizes, the 56", 42" and the 27". I need SHALLOW drawers and more of them! NOT less drawers in total and that are DEEPER! Yes every toolbox benefits from having SOME deep drawers, think blow molded cases, power tools, etc but when there's literally TWICE as many deep drawers as there are shallow drawers that's TOO many! For example the 72" chest has 9x DEEP DRAWERS and only 5x SHALLOW DRAWERS. The majority of my tools are on the smaller side. Think screwdrivers and wrenches, at best plier height. Think hand tools. There is nothing more frustrating than having to dig a small hand tool out from underneath other tools at the bottom of the drawer because of their depth or wasted empty space having several inches above the hand tools that could have been utilized for another drawer. If I need deep drawers for things like blow molded cases, that's what the locker is for! Which by the way I think you guys killed it with the locker. I have the older series and love it and I think the new one is a much improved design. But sadly, even going with something like an end cabinet as an option to get more drawers in addition to the original chest the same theme of more deep drawers then shallow drawers continues again having double the amount of deep drawers to shallow drawers at 4x DEEP to 2x Shallow. I'm not trying to hate on Harbor Freight or the new Series 3 lineup as I think there are a lot of nice design changes and gives you a quality box at a very competitive price. I just am very disappointed in the drawer layout that seems to be across the entire Series 3 lineup having too many deep drawers in comparison to more drawers in total with more shallow drawers available. I loved the drawer layout of the series 2 72" Chests and wish I would have picked one up prior to them becoming obsolete and putting the new Series 3 hutch on top with the new designed locker and end cabinet.
Please make wall lockers and cabinets to match the toolboxes. Lockers and cabinets such as the gladiator or older craftsman red and black that we used to see in so many garages. I feel like there is a gap in the market for those right now. At the Harbor Freight price point it would be a sell out for sure. Especially if sold in the colors to match the toolboxes. Cheers!
The yellow 27 inch looks awesome. The drawer format is more practical. Before, the top drawers were paper thin deep. Now much better. I will say this...the on line photos do not due justice for the yellow stuff. I recently got a yellow 5 drawer roll cart. The yellow is so bad ass in person. The phone or computer do not show how amazing the yellow actually is.
Thank you for discontinuing the series 2 and doubling the price of the series 3. I now can’t expand my series 2 setup without having to search the used market on a daily basis. Bravo
@@Spectrum_Auto_SpaSo what do you expect man, that a brand gets stock without updating their tools? Then everybody will be complaining about lack of updates. I would be mad if they didn’t release Series 3….I bought a whole setup and planning to get everything I need and some more so I’m not in the same dilema when they release Series 4.
I have the 30 inch 5 drawer and wanted a larger one but opted for another 30 inch. To tell the truth I’m not impressed with the full drawer pull mechanism. I’m sure it’s tested, but I just don’t see that plastic piece holding up. Some of the drawers on the display units worked fine while it was difficult to release some of the others. Plus every time you put your hand up to open a drawer those plastic fins hanging down hits your fingers. I just personally like the single release on the side but that’s me. I’m sure some will love the full pull mechanism. Other than that you are killing it with new products and selection.
Great presentation. I have three of the series 2 26” models as I have to stick then between other equipment. The only things I’m not happy about with the new models is that we give up a draw and the top draw I’d too deep. I don’t understand why the top draw is a deep draw. The advantage previous is that tools that are needed most and don’t take up much depth are right in top. Now they’re not.
these look great, and some smart upgrades, such as the charging station, extra width on lockers etc... one thing though is that with the series 3 hutch because its depth is less than the height when it is open sticks out a bit further than is comfortable and would be great to solve that. I would love owning one of these someday.
I was so excited to buy some of the series 2, but alll the ones they say are "in stock" locally aren't actually there (they say), and now with the series 3 they upped the price so I can't afford them. Time to make my own drawers I guess.
Harbor freight designing some good products. I was looking at some Husky boxes but I think this one just won out. Going to have to go check them out this week. Looks like really good quality
I have Icon lineup, I wonder if we’ll get ICON series 2, or ICONIQ, to compete with snap ons epiq, 30 in deep drawers, and would we be able to trade in to upgrade? Just a thought from someone who wrenches for a living,
I call on HF, or someone else willing, to make a metal latch retrofit kit. I get you went plastic to save on cost, but I'm willing to bet many people would pay for the peace of mind and longevity of metal.
Harbor freight has come a long way.... You guys need to come out with a split top rolling tool cart like snap on and Cornwell.. make it stainless because at this point almost nobody can afford the tool truck anymore and I really like Doyle screw driversl
Went and looked at them in the store. The Series 2 boxes are better. The 4.5' and 5.5" drawers on the Series 2 have two slides per side while the Series 3 only have one slide per side.
Two minor gripes. 1) The 27 and 42 have different height casters from the 72 and 56 so there is no way to mate one of the smaller boxes to one of the larger boxes. 2) The profile of the 27 top box is much lower than 42, so you also can't mate the 27 to the 42.
I swear i saw it was $599 online for my local store but its not showing any longer. I think you got the price nailed. Should be $499 but with inflation...
@@JeremyBrightenburg The last one was $599 before series 3 was announced. Then started dropping. The 56” was also $899, so it makes sense the 42” will be $599, I hope it’s $499, but I doubt it will get to $399 unless it’s a clearance price.
I love my series 3 56 inch in blue and I love the expandability. It is a lot for the money. I am a harbor freight fanatic as I’m a mechanic. the drawer latches are cheap cr** I’m honestly waiting for mine to break they have a lot of resistance I’m guessing from quality control issues. I went to the store with the same model and it didn’t have the same issue. Weirdly the bottom right drawer has a lot more resistance when it comes to pulling it out than anything else. I feel like the icon line is like paying for name brand. I would have paid more for better non plastic laches or resistance drawers or even the pull latch drawers. I’m surprised they didn’t change there sizes and give it more depth. I’m sure that has to do with not being an exact copy cat of name brands. For 900 dollars you just won’t find anything better it is a great box I just wish they had an option to even upgrade the latches.
I recently bought the same series 3 56 inch and I ended up removing the latches just push up on the right side and they slide out just remember to push your drawers in fully when locking so they don’t open!
Those look great. If I was looking for something new, they'd probably get my money. I have all antique / vintage boxes (quite a few, actually) and I haven't had to spend much at all to get them, so I can't justify the expense... But those look like a good value.
The 27" is nowhere to be seen on the Harbor Freight web site. What I do see is the 26" Series 2, all labelled as Back In Stock Soon at my local store. But I thought the Series 3 replaced the Series 2? I don't understand. Searching the site for Series 3 doesn't turn up much at all.
A new short video said "The 42" will be available to order in store November 9th and the 27" will be available in December." ua-cam.com/video/6CBG3czxsrg/v-deo.html
I just picked up my 56 in series I got it home and off loaded the tool box and unpacked it. I wish I would have opened it at the store. What a piece of crap. The framing under the top drawers were badly bent so bad that I couldn’t open the drawer. They literally painted over the bent area.. All the plastic for the drawers were broken. I had to pick it up by myself to get loaded onto trailer. Dropped it off and HF employee asked if I wanted another toolbox. I laughed and said no thanks I learned my lesson.
Why did you guys give a specific release date for the 42" but not the 27"? I am waiting for the 27" to release because I wanna buy it but you guys were so vague by just saying "December"
Thanks harbor freight, for blocking me from browsing your website due to me using an ad blocker. I won't be disabling my ad blocker, so I guess I won't be spending any more money with you. Thanks!
@HarborFreight - These are NOT backwards compatible. I have a 44" Chest and wanted to add the roller base. The new base is 42" instead of 44" and, despite your video and documentation, it will NOT fit.
Home depot just put on sale their 42" Husky with 16 drawer for $498 including a power strip. And their 52" husky 18 drawer with two power strips for $948. I think this is a better value than the series 3 tool box. Please consider putting the series 3 on sale
To me the previous version was better in quality, and the fact that this is not comparable with the old version leaves me thinking about buying something else as in a year or two you won't be able to add to your set up. Which happened with the owners of the previous version. E.g. end cabinet height is now not matching with this version. The US General is not the way to go if you hope to extend in the future.otherwise - best value for money.
The drawer latches are lousy and most will likely remove them. The backs of the slide rails that engage the rubber latch points will also need to be spread slightly. Lastly, it’s also poor design to see the lids don’t open to vertical. It looks lame at an angle. The struts are around 14mm long. They could of engineered in an alternate attachment point to allow for vertical opening, or a different strut. But everything else I’ve measured is that 14 in strut, except for the newest 34in 6 drawer full bank cart, which uses a 19 strut to get its lid vertical. This strut to me would seem to be too long to use on the S3 42.
Harbor Freight is tying to be the Snap On truck by leaving their base customers behind. Most homeowner/ handyman/ shade tree mechanics don't want and can't afford the new "series 3" tool boxes. They will lose many customers to Lowes / Home Depot entry level tool storage, and customers while there will discover the Craftsman / Kobalt and Husky lines are affordable and well made with lifetime warranties.
The fact that the series 3 is a 42 versus a series 2 which is a 44 is very embarrassing. Why would I buy a series 3 which is a smaller box versus a series 2 which is a bigger box
Local stores never have the toolboxes in stock especially side boxes. The items are produced in China shipped over here and it never seem to make it to the stores. Some people wait up till 3 to 6 months before they even get one. A lot of their items are never in stock, but they continue to advertise them like they’re here and United States to me that is false advertisement.
In a line up comparison it would be nice if you just showed apples to apples comparison on size so people can make better decisions that they would be happy with. Instead you bolt on different attachments on the side in what comes off to me as a slimy attempt to make each of the top 3 as close in width as possible. Also the green 56" cabinet in the beginning has a slightly different drawer layout than what is advertised.
Can I be sponsored to durability test the boxes . I'm a diesel tech I'll treat the box like My snap on box . I'll slam it move it around go off road with it lol
I've used both and I really do like flip top better. It takes up less horizontal space, which I don't always have. For a roll cart, I want it right there next to me when I'm working on something. Not 2 feet farther away because someone set a bunch of crap on top that morning, and I ain't got the patience to deal with it right now.
And the series 3, 5 drawer is not much different than my series 2 1 big difference it has a power port in back well guess what harbor freight I drilled a hole in my series 2 and bam power port
It's nice to see the 27 inch cart now has a taller drawer at the top. That's what I've been waiting for.
great now everyone buy the purple cart and 5-drawer so we can get purple in series 3

Give us a full bank roll cart with a slide top and you can have all of my money
You guys keep advertising the power tool holster, but still nothing available on the site - when will this be available to purchase?
Looks the the hutch is a sideways side locker 🤔
To me the previous version was better in quality, and the fact that this is not comparable with the old version leaves me thinking about buying something else as in a year or two you won't be able to add to your set up. Which happened with the owners of the previous version. E.g. end cabinet height is now not matching with this version. The US General is not the way to go if you hope to extend in the future.otherwise - best value for money.
The drawer latches are lousy and most will likely remove them. The backs of the slide rails that engage the rubber latch points will also need to be spread slightly. Lastly, it’s also poor design to see the lids don’t open to vertical. It looks lame at an angle. The struts are around 14mm long. They could of engineered in an alternate attachment point to allow for vertical opening, or a different strut. But everything else I’ve measured is that 14 in strut, except for the newest 34in 6 drawer full bank cart, which uses a 19 strut to get its lid vertical. This strut to me would seem to be too long to use on the S3 42.
I wish I could afford thone
Harbor Freight is tying to be the Snap On truck by leaving their base customers behind. Most homeowner/ handyman/ shade tree mechanics don't want and can't afford the new "series 3" tool boxes. They will lose many customers to Lowes / Home Depot entry level tool storage, and customers while there will discover the Craftsman / Kobalt and Husky lines are affordable and well made with lifetime warranties.
Do you guys know if these come with pre cut, non slip liners?
😂😂😂
You guys need to bring in some sharpening stuff
There really isn’t much available with your company
Can we get some harbor freight merch hats jackets t shirts
How about you give more information on the 26” box. Top and bottom why is it not the same height as the rest why not a tall top lid opening
The fact that the series 3 is a 42 versus a series 2 which is a 44 is very embarrassing. Why would I buy a series 3 which is a smaller box versus a series 2 which is a bigger box
It's the same size. The 44 is not really a 44 since they measured with the handle. On the series 3, they decided to be more honest with the size
Local stores never have the toolboxes in stock especially side boxes. The items are produced in China shipped over here and it never seem to make it to the stores. Some people wait up till 3 to 6 months before they even get one. A lot of their items are never in stock, but they continue to advertise them like they’re here and United States to me that is false advertisement.
Okay bud but your just wrong literally every box that has released already is at my local stores
Wish Hawaii have a harbor freight but it will never happen
In a line up comparison it would be nice if you just showed apples to apples comparison on size so people can make better decisions that they would be happy with. Instead you bolt on different attachments on the side in what comes off to me as a slimy attempt to make each of the top 3 as close in width as possible. Also the green 56" cabinet in the beginning has a slightly different drawer layout than what is advertised.
Can I be sponsored to durability test the boxes . I'm a diesel tech I'll treat the box like My snap on box . I'll slam it move it around go off road with it lol
If only they came 30in deep
Then they'd be a lot more expensive. And that would more than likely be an Icon box not a US general.
Sliding top cart please, and 3 wide drawers instead of 2 please.
I've used both and I really do like flip top better. It takes up less horizontal space, which I don't always have. For a roll cart, I want it right there next to me when I'm working on something. Not 2 feet farther away because someone set a bunch of crap on top that morning, and I ain't got the patience to deal with it right now.
Bruh why can't australian brand tool sellers make a toolbox like this
Bottom shelf is not adjustable
And the series 3, 5 drawer is not much different than my series 2 1 big difference it has a power port in back well guess what harbor freight I drilled a hole in my series 2 and bam power port
