Thought this would be worth a review fellas.. I needed some additional Tool cabinets so have been on the lookout for something sensible when I came across and was also told about these Halfords Industrial Units which occasionally come on offer of three units for £399. Now I'm the biggest sceptic on this planet and prefer to spend a little extra to get something of quality, rather than waste £399! I do have a snap on 9 drawer unit already, so I had something to measure the quality of Halfords units against. www.halfords.com/workshop-tools/storage/tool-chests-cabinets/halfords-industrial-6-drawer-ball-bearing-tool-cabinetThat unit is the roller cab, but the bundle also included the following.. www.halfords.com/workshop-tools/storage/tool-chests-cabinets/halfords-industrial-6-drawer-ball-bearing-tool-chestwww.halfords.com/workshop-tools/storage/tool-chests-cabinets/halfords-industrial-3-drawer-middle-chestI must say I was quite surprised on the strength and quality of them, they could of perhaps benefited with more deeper drawers, but they are what they are. If you stack them all together, they are a bit tall even for me, but again that wasn't a problem for me as they're not in one stack. Definitely worth a punt at £399, so keep a look out if you need something between cheap shite and Snap on quality, these units fit right in. Oh well. looks like the links aren't working for whatever reason, but you get the idea.

I've got some Halfords tool chests and also a fair few Halfords "Professional" tools...Good stuff, and even better if you pick them up when they're on special offer Tools are lifetime guaranteed as well. The only downside to the chests is that the locking bars don't last for long.

I have the Halfords pro 9 drawer chest, I love it and cant wait to get the matching cabinet. I got mine when it was massively reduced. I must admit I'm a bit of a fanboy of the Halfords pro range of tools.

=1 on the Halfords Pro stuff. I've got a tool box full of them and never had to replace one due to damage. They even do replacement internals for the ratchets. If you've got a Costco card, their tool boxes are good. I've had mine at least 12 years, carted the top box round for 10 seasons racing and it's still going strong.

No use to me but might be to you Pommies, I just read elsewhere.....
"Halfords is now selling AGV and RST gear"
Edit to add...
"Looks like the helmets are web exclusive. So they probably don't even have any stock. Schubert available too"

Yes bud, their links don't seem to work. If anybody want some better pics of these units, I can go take some.
