I got the black one sitting on my desk for storing pencils, pens, & staples. I also got a red one to store my k-cup coffee & land o lakes half half creamer. Then I got a blue one to sit on top my tool cart for drill bits & screwdriver bits. These new versions are better than last year model, because they open 1/2" wider & they have push bumpers that press fit into holes. Last years model they just had sticky peel bumpers that fall off too easy.

Other usage ideas: Watch collection, jewelry storage, knife collection, fly fishing supplies (if your a master baiter), make up, art supplies, etc.,

My husband loves HF and my MIL wants to get him a GC this year for Xmas. All his tool cases are like the blue one, so I'm going to buy a little blue one and put the GC in it FOR HIS PRESENT. As usual, SD gives me something to buy I never thought I needed. And I will buy 2. laugh out loud

It might seem small but is actually pretty useful, I have a Kobolt branded one (from Lowes) and is great for precision screwdrivers, small pliers, etc.

This photo (from the reviews) gives a pretty idea of scale:

This is a good price, but they were $10 on Black Friday last year. They may or may not be that cheap this year with tariffs, but might be worth waiting to see.
nobody could actually find any

I bought two on Black Friday, and my local store still had some in stock at noon. One of the advantages of living in a small town.

For someone who just found out they existed and now wants 2, are they good?

That's cause scalpers was buying them all & selling them for profit online for $40-$50.

Keyword being slight. I have the original model and put thicker silicone feet on them instead of the factory ones. The drawers opening wider would be nice, but not life altering.

Seems like this would be a perfect size to store pliers, sanding/shaping files, and scrapers for 3D printing instead of hanging them in a mess all over your machine.

Would also be good for paint brushes that don't have a dedicated case, adhesives, hobby knives, small flashlight, solder supplies, electronic components, single purpose cables that you need exactly once a year, precision tools, or maybe even storing/cataloging SD cards for a pro photographer. Tons of uses in a small footprint for $14.

Title should be "in store only". To me "Free store pickup" implies you can order online and pick it up from a store... something HF does not do.

This is day 4 item of their parking lot sale that is held inside of store, instead of parking lot, but they keep calling it parking lot sale for some reason. Buy 5 of these now, while they on sale. Then wrap them up & give them out to your office staff during christmas. Much better gift than a coffee mug or sweater.
This is "10 Days of Deals" the next Parking Lot Sale is in October.I agree with you that the naming could be better when it comes to parking lot sales.

Its a small box for shelf, not to be carried and the drawers do have a pull handle.
