Northern Tool is ten leagues above HF. Not only do they sell the tools, but they also have in house service departments in mot locations, and their associates are actually trained on how the tools/equipment operate and the differences between the different brands with similar tools.
@@jmackinjersey1 at my local Northern Tool the staff doesn’t seem very helpful or nice, and at Harbor Freight instead of in house repair of tools, they just grab one off the shelf and swap yours out for a new one. I did a warranty test video at HF, check it out. They were super nice about it and it took at total of 2 minutes in and out with no receipt or questions asked
I really hope that Harbor Freight takes a clue from the crowd to go ahead and come out with the 3-drawer bottom box for it. I'll be buying more than one if they can ever keep them in stock long enough.
So far the US General box seems like the best of all the mini boxes so far. The Kobalt is okay but I would rather have the Harbor Freight version because the drawers slide a lot better and the top opens halfway and stands up where the Kobalt can’t. I like the Strongway but I would much rather have 2 drawers instead of 1 deep drawer
@@kevinberger801 good question, you should probably talk to someone at your local store about that. If I had to venture a guess I would think they would be restocked before Christmas at full price so people can buy them as gifts
@@stevenyoung5504 a buddy of mine asked for my extra red one and I’m going to sell it to go for $10, but I’ve known him for several years and I don’t mind hooking him up. I think I’m going to hook up another local friend of mine who wants the black mini tool box. Then I’ll only have two US general mini tool boxes and i think that’s the right amount to have lol
I was looking at them yesterday at HF. I had $20. in HF cash about to expire. Almost bought one but I decided it would just be more junk laying around. The drawer would even open more than a couple of inches. Couldn't think of a use for it. So I bought a few jigsaw blades and orbital sanding pads instead.

@@shadow7796 that would be sweet, I would definitely show up 15 minutes early on day one if they release those to make sure I get one

The yellow batteries at HFT are the bad ones. The blue ones you showed are actually good. I had not seen the Strong Way yet. Thanks for sharing.
It's weird that the Strongway has three-part slides yet they still aren't full extension.
I went to get them and they were sold out. Would like to get one from you
Man, that “STRONGWAY” decal on the front is kinda tacky. More like wrong way.
Mini tool boxes = Men’s Stanley cup for sure!!!!!
You are lucky Have been unable to get the US general tool box at harbor freight.
