“A practical budget-friendly storage solution for hand tool organization in small workshops, though premium competitors offer heavier gauge steel and deeper drawers for modest price increases.”
Our Review
The Workington 24" 9-drawer chest offers solid mid-range storage for small to medium workshops. The ball bearing slides operate smoothly under moderate load, and the steel construction feels reasonably rigid for stationary use. However, the purple finish is purely aesthetic—the real value lies in the compartmentalized organization. At this size, it's best suited for hand tools and fasteners rather than heavy power tools. The 24" width fits standard workbenches without dominating space, though drawer depth could be deeper for longer items. Build quality is acceptable for the price point, but long-term durability depends heavily on avoiding overloading individual drawers.
What We Like
- Ball bearing slides provide smooth, quiet drawer operation with minimal wobble
- Nine-drawer configuration offers excellent organization for small hand tools and hardware
- Compact 24" footprint fits cramped job sites and home workshops without taking up excessive bench space
Watch Out For
- Steel gauge appears lighter than premium competitors, limiting weight capacity per drawer to roughly 40-50 lbs safely
- Shallow drawer design restricts storage of larger items like socket sets or power tools
The Verdict
“A practical budget-friendly storage solution for hand tool organization in small workshops, though premium competitors offer heavier gauge steel and deeper drawers for modest price increases.”
