*This toolbox is used in a Professional Automotive setting everyday within a very large Toyota Dealership* I ordered the Montezuma Elite 72″ with Hutch about 3 months ago and feel I have had enough time with it to give a thorough review. First off, let me say that I couldn’t have been happier with the service given to me by Strictly. Joe is incredible, answers all questions and gives you updates on everything. He really gets involved right about when the box is delivered, making sure you, the buyer, understands the entire delivery inspection process. When the box is delivered, it looks as well packaged as any highly important package. It took a good deal of time to get the tool boxes out to check them over. I looked over every inch of the both pieces and found absolutely nothing wrong. There was a hole punched through the exterior wood board, but there was so much protective foam and packaging inside, that nothing got through. This is a testament to their incredible packaging job, and the care they give when delivering your toolbox. After everything is out and setup, I really got to take a good look at how massive this thing is! These tool boxes are tanks, and are very solid. Believe me, the 1400lbs that this setup is quoted at, is no exaggeration, there’s a lot of steel in this tool box! It took 4 of us to lift the hutch up on the tool box. Only odd thing, is that I found I had to drill through the SS top to mount the hutch. Maybe I did it wrong? But i couldn’t find any other way to mount it. The mounting hardware is hidden so no one would ever know. After the hutch was mounted, I was able to start playing with things. The hutch door opens with a little muscle required just because of how thick and rugged it is. As it rolls back in, it makes a nice thud when it engages it’s stop. The ONLY complaint, is that it doesn’t go in farther. I keep worrying i might bash my head on it, but when i looked at other hutches, it seems to be a typical trait of all hutches. So no points deducted! The shelf is way nicer than most would thing. Keeping things up out of the way, but still within reach is such a luxury that many in the shop get jealous about. As far as lighting, I have two 36″ fluorescent lights. One on the backside of the hutch door (so when it opens its right above the shelf), and one under the shelf which really brightens up the work surface. I love the SS top with the textured finish. I get a lot of compliments on it, as no truck branded tool boxes have a top like this. It really does catch your eye when walking by. When working on it, it is very solid and does not interfere with writing, as I was concerned about that. The drawers on the tool box are all very solid and open/close with authority. The large drawer up top is immense and will fit anything you throw at it. The fact that is also has two shallow “superwide” drawers below it are a HUGE plus. Most truck brands only offer one. With two, i can put longer screwdrivers/pry bar sets in the first, and in the second, my huge pliers collection. There’s definitely no shortage on space in it. The drawer liners are very tacky and keep tools, etc from sliding around when closing or opening. They really are premium liners. The six sprung casters with 4 brakes really aid in moving this boat around. I honestly don’t know how I would move this toolbox over uneven surfaces without them. Not only do they work and look good, but they take stress of the tool box when rolling over rough surfaces. My tool box came with two polished, heavy duty handles, one for each side. I don’t know if I got an extra or if you really get two, but it’s nice when positioning it into a spot. The paint finish is very nice and looks like automotive quality. I’m quite particular of my things and take very good care of stuff. I wax it once a week and wipe it down with mist detailer every night. So it has stayed looking incredible. It does seem to like fingerprints… But I’m sure every tool box does. All in all, i couldn’t be happier. It makes my job easier everyday and is a joy to work with. I come in every morning smiling when I see it. It really is THAT nice. I was actually looking at a Mxxxx 5s box for more than what I spent on this, except it was only 56″ wide and 25″ deep with NO hutch. I knew it just wasn’t going to cut it size wise. This tool box fits the bill perfectly. Huge size, incredible quality, and an amazing value. I have been recommending Montezuma (through Strictly of course) to anyone looking for a new tool box. A few apprentices have just started a bit ago and are in need of a tool box that will suit them for awhile without breaking the bank. I showed both of them this site and they immediately decided to bail on the little, overpriced Sxxx-Ox boxes they were looking at. They were even discounting them 50% and were still more than an equivalent Monty. Another Master Tech here claimed he was going to order a Hutch for his Mxxxx after seeing mine just because of how expensive the Mxxxx one was. I seem to be converting a good deal of techs in the shop. The others just walk away with their tail between their legs, knowing they spent 3x what i did for a tool box that in my opinion, isn’t any better. Montezuma is about to take over. With their prices and quality, I can’t see any reason why they wouldn’t.

I am a former professional auto technician, currently an engineer still working on my hobby cars. This tool box is just what I needed for my current ongoing garage renovation. The quality of this toolbox is excellent. I like the size but I will say that 30″ deep requires you to open the draws a long way to get at tools in the back and reach a long way as well. I might want to consider the 24″ deep version the next time. Also my first toolbox arrived damaged. Following all the inspection procedures sent to me by Strictly Toolboxes resulted in an immediate return and they got me a new one out the next day. I was very happy with working with them on this.

My husband has been a Mechanic for close to 30 years spending the last 20 plus working on heavy equipment. We have bought many toolboxes over the years including Snap-on, Mac, Craftsman and other but this Montezuma by far is the best he has ever had. He is so impressed by it in many ways. He was a little skeptical when he saw the price — wasn’t sure of the quality he would get but it is the best he has ever used. The price is a great deal — awesome value for the money, delivery is not only free but easy and quick. The toolbox is of the highest quality – – Sturdy, strong deep draws to fit everything with ease. Really there is just no better deal out there and now he will never purchase from anywhere but Strictly Toolboxes again. Also their customer service is top notch — always get a live person that picks up by the 2nd ring and they are happy to answer all your questions. If you are looking for a new toolbox then I highly recommend the Montezuma Elite — it is an exceptional value and a great product.

I bought this cabinet to replace my 20 year old Snap On toolbox and I could not be happier with it or the entire experience. I was worried about getting the box shipped to me, but it went so smoothly. It arrived in about a week and when I inspected it upon delivery, there were no problems. Plus, ordering the locks and getting them sent to me worked like a charm. As for the toolbox itself, it’s made well and I especially like the drawer detents. They’re stiff and hold tight. All in all, this is a high quality toolbox and I recommend it to anyone.

I just got my tool vault and I put it together. It better built than any tool box like snap on and a lot cheaper. My Coworkers are thinking of getting one. My boss was impressed by it. One of my Coworkers wanted to get in it as I was putting it together.

First off, I want to say that the customer service and support with Strictly Tool Boxes is above and beyond the norm. Far better than any other company I’ve ever done business with. So thank you Shannon for all the answers and expertise.

Now for the review. Unboxing the crate was a task in itself. Packaged very well. The toolbox was received on time and in perfect condition. After unboxing and finishing the work day I began muscling the boxes around for assembly. This box is stout and I would recommend you have a friend help mount the side lockers. I didn’t, luckily the process went smoothly and it went together with very little struggle.

This box is stout and far sturdier than I expected. Love the sizes of the drawers. 30 inch depth is perfect. Loaded up my top drawer with over 700 sockets. It seems like the more you load this thing down. The smoother it feels. Hutch is awesome and the side lockers are great add on for some larger tools that come in the plastic cases, definitely saves space in the box itself. I have a couple coworkers that have been in the industry now for 20 years and we’re practically drooling over the box and its quality. Right on par with a matco 4s series. All I need to do now is get my locks ordered, and find out If I can get some magnets ordered for the one locker. When swapping the door around I accidentally broke 2 magnets trying to remove them. Not a big deal. Also, stainless steel top looks awesome, pictures don’t do it justice. Very solid work area. I may have to put a work mat down so it doesn’t get scratched.

When I ordered my tool box I was a little skeptical at first. I found strictly tool boxes by chance online and when I saw the prices I thought it was to good to be true and although the boxes were good size I thought the quality would be lacking.

I was wrong by far. I have had boxes during my career that have come off certain tool trucks and this one is the same quality for a lot better price. With this one when the deal is done it’s done. No more paying the man every week and sure don’t have to remortgage the house like I have seen other techs do.

When I called strictly tool boxes they was right on the spot answering questions and getting my order placed. As soon as it arrived and was taken out of the crates it came in I cannot tell you how impressed I was. The box is huge and when you open the drawers they just keep on coming. It amazes me the quality you get for such a good deal. The only complaint I had was on one of the side cabinets you have to turn the door around so it will match what is pictured that wasn’t a problem but what was is their emblem is now upside down.

It’s a small thing but with such a nice box you kind of want everything uniform because everybody that walks in the shop is going to look at it. Besides the emblem that is the only other problem, everybody that comes in stands in front of it just starring and tend to get in the way. I wish I had known about strictly tool boxes sooner I would have saved thousands of dollars but I’m glad I found them now. If you are having doubts about getting this box don’t, you will not find another deal even close to this just ask the men driving the tool trucks around what you will get for 6 grand and see what you walk off with

I had a smaller toolbox from our friends at M**. I sold that toolbox and got one three time the size for about 2 times the money. Great value, Everything was as promised. Quality is the same as my M** box. I got a guy with a tow truck to help me install the top box. That worked really great. Shipping was good. Well packaged easy to open up. I am looking forward to many years with this tool box. Totally happy with this purchase.

I just have to say that I am highly impressed. I am an ex-tool dealer and find it very difficult to choke down the prices of tool boxes today. I wanted to upsize and quite frankly, I needed to. The comparable tool box in a name brand was $22k! Now granted, they were going to give me an inflated trade-in value on my toolbox. However, my new Tool Vault was only 25% of the name brand and I just sold my old toolbox, almost paying for the new one. I did a ton of research. I am the great skeptic. And for me, getting a good deal isn’t about a dollar amount. It’s about feeling like I received a good product for a reasonable price. I feel like I received a GREAT product for MORE than a reasonable price!
