I agree...our business has just installed 5 Stainless versions of these for a client,
Fit, Finish and Feel of Drawers is Good (not Snap-on but not far off).

I bought one of the above stainless steel cabinets, and returned it, as the keys didn't work and I couldn't lock it. They only had the one in stock, and couldn't replace it with another, so went and got something different.

I admire you for returning it, surprised they would not want to sort it out for you with the correct keys or even a new lock.

Is their customer service really that poor?

When I returned it, they took a brief look at the lock. When they realised they couldn't fix it, they just offered me refund. They didn't know when any new stock was arriving. So I bought the below. (Both the upper and lower unit.) It was more expensive, but the drawers are wider, and deeper. I'm very happy with them. Thumbs Up

Gents,
A very similar toolbox, although black crackle finish with external handles is available in Costco for £479 (recently up from £450)
Excellent quality + different key locks top + bottom that work and a lifetime guarantee as on as you're still a Costco member.
It does however take up a lot of my garage !!!!!
