Harbor Freight Mini Toolbox Scam! / Watch This Before You Purchase!

[@rodcox1005]

The Harbor Freight box is not a scam, it's MUCH better than the Kobalt box and it's cheaper. Their drawers open easily, the lid stays open, and it has drawer liners. It's simple supply and demand and there will likely be enough on the shelves in a month or so.

[@domosautomotive1929]

The US General is a much better box. It has smooth ball bearing drawer slides, drawer liners and the top only opens to just past 90°.

[@FauxQue-yk8dt]

And those BB drawers don't even open half way. I looked at them. Had $20. in free HF cash, and spent it on jig saw blades and sanding discs instead. Things I have a use for. Mini box? Not so much, besides the cute factor. Cute things gather dust, practical things don't

[@nhbountyhunter]

​@@FauxQue-yk8dtYou either have no imagination or you just hate everything new because you're a hipster. The draws don't come out because the sliders are so short (which they have to be). But that does not matter. You can reach in the draw just fine. It's just an excuse people are using to hate on it. As far as being useful, again you're so blind you are bordering on ignorance. I got 1 for my soldering station. I can put all my tools, tips, solder, wick, flux, etc in this box. I also got 1 for my home work space for my RC hobby. My wife has one for her sewing area as well (she got it herself after she saw mine). If you have no use that's fine but don't be a %#$ because you don't have the ability to see the relevance of something like this. Oh, the Kobalt one is more expensive, has less features, and is not built as well. It wins in color choice only.

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

@FauxQue-yk8dt Thanks for Watching! Agreed

[@MiguelGarcia-vj7oo]

​@@FauxQue-yk8dt you have a very ignorant perspective...... I've seen people use these boxes for their EDC carry, stationary, hobby/RC tool kit, knives collection, watch collection and watch repair tools, etc, etc....... there is a place for every tool.

[@101ThunderRock]

Bought my box on Black Friday at Harbor Freight, no line, out the door within 10 minutes. I'll admit it's a novelty, but still kinda cool.

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Agreed! Thanks for watching

[@shadow7796]

The US Genneral has ball bearing drawer slides, and the Kobalt does not. The US General has a little better overall quality feel to it as well. They're definitely not the same box, so I wouldn't just say that without inspecting both boxes or even reading and comparing the descriptions. As far as uses go, they work great to hold precision tools on the desk or benchtop.

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching and sharing

[@yo3rdtier128]

Yeah, but the drawers don’t open all the way up on that cheesy mini box and the top doesn’t fold all the way back as a mini table. HF being HF. 🧀

[@jimthvac100]

@@yo3rdtier128 Still 10 times better quality than the Kolbalt.. You want the Kolbalt take it.

[@herbholmberg4474]

@shadow7796 Hobo freight never was available within 100 miles of me. I have seen other Kobalt boxes. I think the hobo freight everyone raves about is a myth. Plus, HF does not offer a 3drawer add on box like Kobalt.

[@leoorlowsky2283]

Also the US General comes with drawer liners .

[@MCTeck]

My desk was cluttered with "Small Stuff" , utility knife, fingernail clippers, usb sticks, cables, post it notes, pens, bottle openers ,tape measure, flashlight ,ETC,ETC. Now organized. Got two at HF, was in and out in 10 min! $9.98 each.

[@dynadork3312]

I tried to go to HF on Monday the 25th when they went on sale for members. They were out by the time I got there because I wasn't there right at opening. I later found out they withheld a TON of them for the "general public" on Black Friday... quite the big middle finger to inside track members who PAID for the membership like myself. I went and bought 3 Kobalt boxes online (HF was limiting people to only 2) after I lost interest in the stupid US General box over Harbor Freight's (mis)handling of the sale. I don't even care if they're technically better, HF pissed me off over this one.

[@bobwilkerson9760]

Harbor freight isn't quite the cool, quirky, and fun place that it USED to be... Too corporate-ish... No more freebies, no more coupons, and ever increasing prices I used to drop by, frequently, just to see what they might have, and always spent a few bucks...!!! Nowadays I only drop by for something specific that I need or that might be on a good sale... I find myself frequenting Walmart, home Depot, Lowe's, and and the swap meet more than HF these days

[@DonaldGMyers]

I’m with you brother Harbour freight really showed how little the ITC means I won’t be renewing my membership

[@mikewatson4644]

I went in early on Monday and got 2. The next day when I was in Harbor Freight, I asked about them. They said they could get 1 for me, but they were holding them for Friday. I go in regularly, always talk to them, ask questions and make a purchase (usually under $20). I don't act like an entitled jerk. I treat them well, they treat me well in return. I don't know how many they saved for Black Friday, but they were out before being open for an hour. Also, employees that I know didn't even get to buy any. I think they seriously under estimated how popular they would be.

[@research903]

I would say that was the local manager, not corporate. Bought mine during the Inside Track only and they had multiple stacks then and when I had to pick up some other items after they went on sale to the general public. The local limit was 4 and there was no line of any kind.

[@karljay7473]

Not only is the HF box not a scam, but it's actually a pretty well built box. The drawer slides should have opened the drawer fully, and having a handle would be nice, maybe even a lock. It's a heavy, quality part and for $10 it's great storage for small parts. I'm going to put electronic parts in one and convert the other to a custom engine test system with all the electronic test parts in there, probes, clamp meter, power supply, etc...

[@drdengineering819]

I have a mini SnapOn tool box my brother gave me many years ago. Smaller than these. What do I keep in it? Guitar picks I’ve collected from famous musicians over the years. Still have two drawers to spare…

[@TheNotMeTube]

Yep I got my 2 USG mini boxes to match my big ones. Didn’t have to stand in line - went at 8 on Monday and was the first one there.

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching!

[@tedz.]

I refuse to wait in line to buy anything. I'm not sure what I'd use one of these for. The drawers and top storage seem a little small to be practical; one taller drawer and top storage might be more useful. Thanks for sharing this with us Tom.

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching Ted! Me too!

[@errettdieter2277]

After waiting in the warm inside entrance of Lowe's [6:00am opening] for a little less than an hour to get the blue bucket door buster, I made my way over to HF [7:00am opening] and waited in my warm car and about 6:50am made my way to the entrance just like everyone else. Got my 2 mini boxes [red and black]. There were only a few blue boxes left within 10 minutes. I drove past Kohl's before I went to Lowe's, the line was very long, well over 100 people. Don't know how long those people were out in the cold, but I got off easy and did very well, thank you very much.

[@mjdiiii]

I'll grab one at next year's garage sales.

[@charlesdabb1821]

I don't think people are understanding the scam. I have the Kobalt box, but do prefer the US General box. I use mine for model building. I keep it ony desk to hold paints, brushes, and other assorted little things. Novelty, yes, but it does have its used.

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching! Appreciate the honest feedback

[@rosemaryschroyer604]

I went to HB on Black Friday at 7 AM to get mine. I walked in the door only to find out they were sold out. Ironically, I had gone to HB earlier in the week to buy one at the regular price only to find that they had pulled all of them to sell on Black Friday. Luckily, I found the lavender Kobalt mini tool box at Lowes instead. Love the color the fact they they had many in stock. I'm using it to hold knitting/crocheting supplies in.

[@raccoonplayground]

The Harbor Freight box is by far superior to the Kobalt box. Having both of them side by side and just opening and closing the lid and drawers of each will really make you appreciate it. I really don't buy much at HF but the mini boxes are a winner!

[@thewayidoit8895]

US GENERAL has roller slides. I walked in mid november and the manager said they weren't out and went in back and got one. I used a coupon and paid about $12.

[@Supra_Mickey]

The US general had actual slides instead of metal on metal like all the other companies

[@connormarek1028]

I just so happened find one of these at Harbor Freight, today. Wasnt even expecting to find one. I got the last blue one they had. Love it!!!

[@BigWill8904]

I went to harbor freight when they opened. Not much of a line I was in and out in 10 minutes

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for watching! Good to knowing

[@you7uber5]

Its not the exact same thing. The Kobalt doesnt have ball bearing slides.

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching! Appreciate the feedback

[@herbholmberg4474]

No BB slides, but unlike HF, they offer a matching 3 drawer add on box.

[@ArthurRinglerPhotography]

We had these small tool boxes back in the ‘90’s you could buy them on the tool trucks. I have two of the Dale Sr / Snap-on mini tool boxes which costed me more then these cost now. Cool little tool boxes.

[@Orlosthedruid]

For 10$, Id use it for my pocket knife collection. Cut some felt for the bottoms of the trays and put the box somewhere where I can get to it easily, like the top of my dresser.

[@pennywise8182]

I never got into the mini tool box "thing".....They just seem to take up alot of space for what they are.

[@donnyarmstrong9559]

My Black Friday morning started at 05:45 in line @ Cal-Ranch (06:00 opening time), they always have a great sale on ammo on Black Friday. I got my ammo, and by the time I got outta there it was 06:55, HF opens at 07:00, and it was 1/2 mile down the road so no real time having to stand in that line! I got one from of these tool boxes from HF, its the blue one! I had no intention of getting one, but I was caught up in the frenzy that these things generated. I did get my intended items as well, but did come home with the Blue Beauty! I also have it on my desk, it holds some of the small tools that used to occupy one of my many pencil jars! Living my best La Vida Loca here in southeastern Arizona

[@vintagespeedandperformance6615]

The USG box is 10 bucks on sale…hardly a scam. It’s a novelty / toy tool box that cost less than a Big Mac combo meal at McDonalds.

[@harshtimes23]

I dont call it a scam if you bought them for yourself. I bought the black and blue one. Literally walked into HF on Tuesday and saw the display at 2pm and they were just sitting out. Plus its made way better than the Kobalt one.

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching! Appreciate the feedback

[@sfeddie1]

I bought a Workpro tool box that has the same x/y dimensions but is 8 inches tall. This makes both drawers and the top tray deeper and the lid higher. Overall it has the same build quality as the Kolbalt, but with more storage space. I bought it on line, but I don’t remember where. I build model car kits and use to hold the smaller tools on my small workbench.

[@jodymoyer5569]

Harbor Freights is superior to Kobalt plus 3 bucks cheaper. You only get 2 per person so i got the blue and red and yes i was standing in line among others at 7 a.m. on Friday. Perfect for your edc.

thats a great idea.

They're good for flashlights, pocket knives, and other EDC items. Extra bits, blades, and other consumables also fit.

[@YoSpiff]

I bought a couple of the Kobalt several years ago for the regular price of $20. I have it on the table holding supplies for my 3D printer Bought a pink one for my daughter who is a welder. She loves it. Bought more of them for gifts recently when Lowes had them again, but that was before the US General version was released. It sounds like the US General one is definitely better and I may buy one in red when they have them again.

[@DukeSky]

They work prefect for stowing my RC lipo batteries.

[@patrickriarchy6054]

Wanted the HF one and the were out. Lowes near me still had alot of the Kobalt minis. Bought a couple online went about my day.

Here in Glendale Arizona harbour freight pulled them mini tool boxes a month and half ago to hold them for black Friday harbor freight is so freaking pathetic their head quarter office had no idea why they pulled them off the shelfs I haven't been to harbor freight in over three years

[@tsl7881]

They withhold items that are on sale all the time. Sometimes the manager will go in the back and "look" to see if they have any more.

[@mikewatson4644]

They pulled them off the shelf at $18 so they could sell them for $10. What a ripoff.

Someone that I know bought one to store the tooling for a small lathe. The bottom drawer will hold AXA tool holders on their side. The other drawer and the top are good for indexable holders, wrenches and hex keys. Sorry I missed the HF sale but will probably get two for my 13x40 lathe tooling.

Bought a pink Kobalt last year for my sister, remember they were hard to find, this year they are in abundance and released a lavender she wanted, grabbed one of them too… actually got a US General weeks before black friday at full price of $17 cause I was Christmas shopping and asked the manager if they would sell one. My buddy bought one a day later simply by asking. Difference is he uses his for pens in the hutch of his toolbox at work… me? I gifted mine to a coworker who has a Mini Kobalt and Mini Snap On already on his desk at work.

[@OldAndGettingOlder]

The US General mini toolbox is a nice mini (because it is mini) toolbox and the BEST ONE to boot. Honestly though, it is a bit of a toy, but it's also 100% useful to many. I'm using it for a collection of mini tools. Think of a collection of mini spoons. People do this. I printed a top tray to hold my Quinn 1/4" Master Socket Set. In the middle drawer I have a tray to hold my ICON 1/4" bit kit. It's cute and practical. It's my 3D printer toolbox. As I collect collect more mini tools I'll fit them in the toolbox nice and tidy. I got two on Black Friday. They are worth the full price too. The Kobalt toolbox is junk.

[@exceleratorjoshua]

The Harbor Freight tool box is better. I have one filled with some fancy lighters and another with pocket knives and edc items. They are nice.

[@GeorgiaRidgerunner]

Its a damn shame we live in a world where resellers pull this buying up the deals and reselling them at super inflated prices online it was just last year some kid rented a uhaul and went to home depot abought up all the space heaters and resold them online for near 300 bucks apiece guy was bragging about making like a 5000 dollar profit off those things i expect it wont be many more years before all the major stores develop software to combat the scalpers and there price gouging B.S.

I got a couple on black Friday, as others have said, no lines. I did have to ask though, because it turned out they had a cart of them in a store room off the front of the store. I got my 2 (it was limited to 2 per), and was out of there. Just picked up a third (have 1 of each color), and they were just in stock with the other US Gen stuff. I looked at the Kobalt in store, and seen a few compare videos. Not sure how solid the Kobalts are, but yhe US Generals are quite heavy. With actual drawer slides, mats, and a lid that does flip all the way over, its clearly better designed and built. It is gimmicky, but Ive got a bunch of little stuff in the drawers of my big box that would be great to put in one of these sat on top. Unfortunately im gifting the 3 I bought, but will 💯% be getting one for myself. All that being said, especially the fact that these are not hard to get, the sellers jacking up the prices are absolute scammers.

[@davehoel4008]

Harbor Freight scammed the insiders track membership with limiting distribution of the mini tool boxes selling so many per day. As a club member if they are sold out no big deal but don’t con me to come back the next day saying you can only sell so many per day. If you told us up front what ever the count being sold per day I would have been ok with that as well!

[@shawnwaldrop3702]

To insinuate that NO ONE uses these tool boxes is painting a very broad brush. I have the KOBALT top and bottom. Its not as nice as the US General ones, but I'll be darned if its not sitting right here in my home office. It holds all kinds of stuff. Not many tools, but then again I'm not a model builder, painter, scrapbooker, etc. There are loads of things these can be used for. Mine is certainly not sitting around collecting dust.

I get so frustrated with HF sales. I am member even and go before Black Friday or tent sales open to general public. And every time I want something that shelf is clear. Don't matter if a tool, battery, flashlight or this toolbox. It never fails that what I am trying to get is what everyone wants apparently. I am to point now I just go and pay full price cause I am sick of going there to find a empty shelf.

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching! Sorry to hear that

[@dynadork3312]

I've had largely the same experience. I can't confirm this, but I've heard on internet forums (super reliable, I know) that if you get buddy-buddy with the management team at certain stores they'll let you buy the item before the sale goes live and then let you come back during the sale when they're out of stock and refund you the difference even though that's against company policy. Having said that I asked the manager at my store if she'd let me do that and she told me no... I barely know the woman though so who knows?

[@c.p.9551]

If the shelf is out of stock, ask a HF staff member who doesn't have an attitude to look up on the computer to see if they have that item in the back storage area. Lots of times they don't have enough staff to keep the shelves stocked when they are so busy. They are generally more than happy to assist you. Home Depot and Lowe's should take note of the HB's employee work ethic. Be sure to know the Item Number of what you want to make their job easier to look up on the computer, and your shopping experience more enjoyable. Also, sometimes the marked down - sale items can be found at either the end-caps or by the register. Hope that helps! Mini toolboxes are another story entirely... never in stock in my area. Waiting for the green ones to come out, possibly the Q2 of 2025. Good luck!

[@tombeck2792]

bought one at Menards this summer for $14. I use mine for my scale modeling kit tools.

[@josephgraham1065]

The harbor Freight box is much better than the Kobalt box with the drawer slides and liners. The box is only good for storing small stuff like router bits or drill bits or other very small items. BTW the drawers only open half way. Really not worth purchasing in my opinion but I would purchase the HF over the Kobalt if I was going to purchase

[@herbholmberg4474]

For every person tooting their horn about how wonderful the hobo freight mini box is and how junky the Kobalt boxes are, there are 3-5 others like me reporting zero luck finding them. The bottom line being, the HF boxes have no relevance for a huge percentage of those interested. So, the logical person will buy the Lowes version and satisfy themselves with their offering and the 3 drawer add on not offered as a match to the HF brand boxes.

[@Lunarphantom99]

Ummm da sliding can just be oiled with lubricant thoe

Thanks for Watching Fred! Had no idea that this video would get this much interest

That would make more sense!

Lowes is the biggest rip off store!....they were even trying to sell a case of bottled water for $8.00!......I'm surprised they did not go out of business yet.......Menards is my go to store.....spent many many thousands there!

No one is forced to buy the water, nor does Lowe’s rely on its sales to stay in business. Lowe’s is a Fortune 500 company and isn’t going anywhere. Get a clue, please.

You buy them for your kids, that’s what I did. Kids put their toys and crayons.
