Average Rating: 
Rating: - Not the best workmanship but the price is right
The quality of the wood and workmanship of this chest is a little better than the typical "made-in-China" quality. But the hardware is pretty low-grade. Having said that, what you do get is a pretty solid (it survived UPS unscathed) utility chest with velour-lined drawers that fit and slide nicely. It is now housing my woodworking measuring instruments. Recommended.
Rating: - Quality versus price
Four problems with the unit:1) Finish/Oil was not dry before being bagged. The bag was saturated with the finish and the chest still smells like the finish. Not a big problem as it will dry over time. 2) Top of cabinet lid is severly warped. Probably due to moisture in the bag after finishing. Does not impair the top compartment in terms of storage space--from my point of view. 3) One of the brass corners was missing a screw and had to be reattached. This obviously did not happen in shipping. 4) Hardware is tarnished and [of lower quality]. Again probably due to the moisture/finish in the bag. Positives: 1) Wood is nice and unit seems fairly durable for small tool storage. 2) Unit was packaged as if it were fine china! Well boxed. 3) Felt lining is nice. 4) Drawer heigth is wrong on description. The two top drawers are 1-3/8" allowing storage for 1-1/2" tools. Bottom two drawers are taller! 1 5/8" for 1-3/4" tool storage. This is great for more storage space. Now, all of that being said, this unit only deserves 2-2.5 stars on quality. On price, this unit deserves 4-5 stars. Similar professional scandanavian storage chest can cost you $200-1200!! I gave it three to average price versus quality. I would probably buy another one. If you want something of the highest quality, then you'll have to go pay for it! If you want something that is [lower quality], but looks fairly decent, then this is a great tool box.
Rating: - I expected junk -- got what I wanted.
Luckily, I bought this box with the intention of stripping it and replacing all of the hardware. Don't buy this if you want a useable chest out of the box. The hardware is ill-fitting. The latches do not hold, even when I re-aligned them and put in new screws. They were crooked, and were missing one screw each. There were two other screws missing from the corner guards. One additional screw was bent beyond usefulness. I feel sorry for anyone who was expecting something nicer. Like I said, I am lucky that my expectation were low to begin with. All of the hardware is in the trash, and I've sanded off most of the cheap varnish. About $.. in hardware and paint (and wood filler to fill the screw holes) will make this look good.
