TRUSCO Y-280-B Mountain Tool Box, 12.0 x 64.4 x 4.8 inches (304 x 164 x 123 mm), Blue

I was pleasantly surprised at the design and workmanship of this toolbox. The components (top and bottom box) are moulded steel. No chance of sloppy or weak welds. It’s very sturdy, and has a good size for a variety of tools. A 16oz hammer fits nicely inside, leaving room for a variety of other household tools.

I purchased 3 of these in 2014, filled them with tools for my then older teen sons, and gifted them for Christmas, thinking it would be practical, but not appreciated until they were older. THEY HAVE LOVED THESE since the moment they got them, and they have used them countless times.These boxes are fantastic, heavy duty, and hard to dent or scratch. My only wish is that they were just a little bit larger, because honestly, you just never seem to have enough room for all the tools you aquire, but for a good standard hand tool kit, this is fantastic. You should however note, there is just no way you are fitting a power tool inside this box, this would be exclusively for a small set of basic powerless hand tools.

High quality, good aesthetic.

My absolute favorite tiny tool box to put in my cars as an emergency set. Fit in all the basic tools i need. Built strong!

My wife has been into indoor and outdoor gardening for a few years now and has gone through many cheap garden tools so this year I decided to get her a full tool kit that should last a lifetime. I built the tool kit around this Toyo/Trusco Y-350 tool box because of it's functionality and beauty. It is an absolute pleasure to use a good quality tool or tool box. It holds all the tools pictured with plenty of room to add a few more tools to the kit. I think this size tool box is perfect for hobbies that require lots of small tools or a basic home owners tool kit. I am a big Toyo/Trusco fan and I got their plant lovers M-8 for my wife in the past.

Of course, you can use it for storing anything you like in this toolbox. I use it to store all my electronic gear, like cords, adapters, chargers, etc. So many cords come with every appliance you buy these days.Sturdy and well made in Japan, but when I looked at buying the larger size box - the shipping was more than the price of the box! Oh well,. I will keep my eye on these products and snap up another one if they go on sale or make the deal list. Highly recommend this box. I love the arched top, more items can be stored than you think at first.

This Trusco Y-280 tool box is the smaller brother of popular Y-350. Trusco (Nakayama) brand is who sells them, and Toyo Steel is who manufactures them. I purchased it for keeping my essential small tools organized in the living quarter for quick access. It came well packaged from the seller including the simple factory cardboard package. The tool box is all metal construction, well made, Japanese quality, for such an economy price. I was looking for small size (and large size) tool boxes and the most of the stuff on the market are plastic junks and yet charged high price, so finding this company was a blessing. It's very roomy for such a small tool box due to the roof top design. I managed to fit a mini hammer in there easily. Depending on the brand, 12oz hammer may even fit. I haven't even filled a half of its capacity. I can see a multitude of potentials for various usage for this tool box. I'm loving it!

Love the vintage feel of it, and the color, but I do wish it was bigger.
