This deal pops up multiple times a year. At this price, it is nice to have around. Just do yourself a favor and use a strong glue/adhesive along all of the joined parts of the box from the start or just pull the drawers and put them in a different box altogether. The bulk of the box is all hollow plastic which means it flexes with weight and movement. This causes the drawers to stick or sockets to catch on the drawers above and lock it in place unless you force it open and risk flinging some of the organized sockets around the room.
I was going to put together an entirely different organization setup without the box but decided to apply adhesive in all of the joined seams just to see if it helps and it does. The box doesn't shift around with movement and use and it seems to help the parts stay in place better. Drawers seem to consistently be better functioning as well. Because the box is still hollow, you might still get flexing so if you wanted to drill some holes and inject it with a rigid foam or something (kind of like a cooler), I'm sure it would help it to keep its shape even more more without adding noticeable weight. The flexing has seemed minimized in the last few weeks since I finally glued the box so I'll have to wait and see if I want to inject foam but, for now, it has been MUCH less of a headache to use this thing. I just moved into a new house so this toolbox has actually gotten used pretty often. I already have a lot of the wrenches and Allen keys but the assorted sockets and adapters being organized in one place is nice to have. I don't mind all of the duplicates in my shop so long as they stayed organized in their proper locations, it makes a pick up and go option like this handy to have around. Just don't pay more than the $99 price. As I said above, you will see this kit (or comparable kits) at this price numerous times per year because they are popular.
As the above comment stated, box is pretty much crap but I've had this same set for over 10 years and it gets regular household use. I kept the sockets in the case but all the other items don't stay anymore and they're easier to find elsewhere.
TBH As a mechanic, to many tools in this set are repeated. You don't want 12 point sockets, to few wrench's, I hardly ever use a Allen long wrench and they already have it in a socket style no need to repeat it.

Compare that to the192pc DeWalt set with Zero bits and a better case. Set a deal alert.
