Don't question my depth....

I have it loaded with all kinds of tools, never thought it wasn't deep enough...?

i meant like towards the wall it sits on, it seems like most of them have 12-16" of drawer depth.

husky has this one that has 19" deep drawers

This interests me.


I think the HF ones are pretty solid for the price. I like that people convert them to a workbench too

I know I got you. When it isn't deep enough you just use a wider drawer and boom solved. I guess if you have that many tools that are both long and wide? But they things that are that big might not belong in drawers?

not necessarily caring about single tools that are larger, but moreover the added space.

see now im just wondering if like this:

https://www.homedepot.com/p/Husky-5...-Wood-Top-22-in-Extra-Deep-75811AHR/206758940

is worth the upgrade.

it's 50 lbs heavier and to me, typically heavier means better quality...

deeper, but same width/height. says drawers will support 100lbs each as opposed to 50 in the other.

It just has more/longer drawers, so more rails/bearings/hardware, I wouldn't say more quality.

Bottom 2 drawers in the cheaper one each support 100lbs also, not sure how you'd put 100+ in any drawers above that to be honest.

I don't think its worth the extra $130 IMO.
