I recently snagged a great deal on a 46" Milwaukee chest system for $700, and it was delivered right to my home! I know these tools are discontinued, but it looks brand new—no scratches, and it even came with all the original paperwork in the top drawer. I'm planning to use it for storing all my carpentry and construction tools in my new 120 sq ft man cave shed. I was weighing my options between this and the Packout system, but since I don't need to transport tools to job sites, this felt like the better choice. Has anyone else had experience with this Milwaukee chest?

I've got the 30" version of that chest, and I absolutely love it! It's well-constructed and does everything I need it to do. The 46" you got is even larger, so I think you got a fantastic deal there!
I bought one of these when they first came out, paying around $750. It's still holding up great! I kinda wish I'd bought a second one for home before the prices shot up. The shipping weight is huge, like 350 lbs, which really made me confident about its sturdy construction. You definitely made a solid purchase!
I got my Milwaukee chest back in 2020 for $1000, and I'm super happy with it! It's versatile and fits my needs perfectly. You definitely made a wise choice with your purchase, especially at that price!
Wow, I remember seeing them priced way higher, like $1500 a few years back. But considering the current market, $700 seems like a steal compared to the newer models selling for over $1500 at Home Depot. You scored a great deal!
