Are you using it for home or for work use?The Snap On holds up better for work use and lasts longer.Theinternational and Remlines are good for home use only.

Your not going to find a better box then the ones made by Snap On, Matco and Mac.

I sell international and Remline tool boxes and i will tell you the truth, You pay for what you get. The reason that the price is cheaper is because they are cheaper boxes.

If your looking for a good priced tool box they will do the job, even for a full time mechanic. They will wear out quicker, but you can buy new parts when they do. If your on a budget, there is nothing wrong with getting one of these boxes. Not everyone can pay $5000 for a tool box.

Re: what tool box to buy? Snap on to high

I shopped and shopped till I dropped for a 41" box set. Here's what I wound up with.

US General bottom $272
US General 7 drawwer side $152
US General tall cab w/ 2 drawers $176
Remline 17710 Top $299


I liked it so well I bought another bottom box and 2 shelf side cab for someone else.
