TCE TAM5519U Torin Portable Tool/Garage Storage Box: Ergonomically Designed for Garage, Home, Office, Warehouse, Gym, School - Black

This is a perfectly fine toolbox for home use. It has a pull out tray where you can keep screwdrivers, Allen wrenches and other smaller items. The top plastic compartment on top of the lid has places where you can keep screws, electrical twist on connectors or other small tools or items. In the bottom, you can store smaller pipe wrenches, regular wrenches, ratchets and sockets, etc. While it looks stunning, out of the box, know that the metal wrapped around the plastic toolbox is mirror finished. So, expect some scratches, even with gentle use. The handle is thick and sturdy, easy to hold and carry. Seems plenty strong. The toolbox in general is well made with heavier gauge plastic and seems like it will hold up to lots of use, with the exception of the mirror finished metal, that scratches easily. Would make a great gift too.

I ordered this toolbox with plans to fill it with lots of tools for a holiday gift for a new homeowner in the family but when it arrived realized that it is not strong enough to hold more than a few light tools and a small variety of screws and nails. It isn't going to be good for power tools or heavy hammers, etc.The box has two latches that are not well set - my photo shows how crooked one is and, while the other is better, it isn't straight. I don't think these latches will hold the box securely closed if heavy tools are placed inside because they are just thin metal pressed in to thin plastic. The back hinge has a very slim metal piece inside the plastic hinge that isn't any stronger looking.The top of the box has a clear plastic lid on a small ( 11 x 4 x 3/4") space that is good for nails or screws. There is a removable tray inside that space that has dividers to keep things organized but that tray is extremely light plastic, similar to the plastic trays inside a box of cookies.The main compartment has a removable tray with a built in handle measuring about 16 x 7 x 1 1/2". It is a stronger plastic than the top tray but not very robust. This might be all right to hold a few screwdrivers or a wrench or two.The bottom space is about 2 3/4" deep. Not huge but big enough for a few larger tools. This is where I could see how the box is put together and those light rivets don't look strong, nor does the thin plastic base. Sigh.Overall, this box is a disappointment. It looks nice on the surface but I would not recommend it for anything but the very very lightest use.

This tough little box has already become a mainstay for storing tools in my garage. It's the perfect size for being portable and is durable enough to handle some real wear and tear. The top storage tray is a handy addition for storing odds and ends, and the main toolbox has enough space to accommodate just about any hand tool.

This tool box is made out of plastic and metal. It is light weight at best. The plastic it is made out of is pretty thin. The sides and part of the handle is made from a thin Stainless steel. The plastic is riveted to the stainless steel. When this thing fails it will be at the rivets. Not sure why they put plastic and metal together like this in a tool box, maybe to make it look more heavy duty than it is but still be lightweight. This tool box will not take much abuse, nor will it carry much weight. I think I will offer this to my wife so she can keep her crafting stuff in it. Thats the only reason it got 3 stars.

This is a solid tool box. I wouldn't say it's to the quality of Dewalt or Milwaukee but for a smaller brand it gets the job done.The metal part is rugged, durable, should protect whatever is inside pretty well. It's pretty roomy and comes with a removable top shelf for loose hardware or smaller intricate tools.The outside is fine - the only weakness is where the metal meets the plastic (all over the front) it's a little unsure of itself. There's some "play" that I don't totally love because toolboxes need to be rock solid. But unless you're planning on throwing at around, it should be more than adequate.2 good solid metal clasps should keep it shut whenever they're closed. Maybe the most rugged thing on the entire box which is good. Overall, 4 stars.
