This has been a well documented video on the process of you ICON purchase. You did not skip on the details of "hey this is what you need to do" , which we all take for granted. Great content as always. Cheers

I just ordered the 73" and stainless top. I wanted to order a 36" as a service cart and found out it's already discontinued. Pretty alarming. Glad you got what you wanted.

Congrats Chris !!! So Happy for you. Thanks again for the sticker and the little present 😁😄🤩 color is perfect and I think it will be a handy little tool. Thanks again, Rodney

Hey Rodney thanks for letting me know you received you things. All the best to you and your family.

Chris, I’m glad you got the new price! Going over the pitfalls during ordering and what to expect if you get one of these boxes will help anyone that watches this. There are a lot of cheaper boxes available but if people would go in and look at the construction on the Icon boxes it’s really hard to beat them especially at the new prices. I think the build quality is there. Steep, yes, if all you look at are cubic inches but when that cheap tool box is falling apart a better built tool box will prove why you spent a little more in the first place. Great video Chris and congratulations on your new tool box!

I’m not sure an icon would be my first choice but the prices are getting to where they should be and I’d consider them a decent deal. I always thought double the us general price they would sell pretty well

Thanks buddy. I’m trying to find time for part two

The Icon boxes are starting to grow on me. I ended up buying the US general 56 because it was in stock and I didn’t have time to wait but I may consider one of these in the future.

This is a very helpful video so thank you for posting it. Only question i have would be: how long did your box sit at the store before they called to schedule? Mine has been at the store for over a week and i haven’t got a call to schedule delivery.

A lot of great info here. When I got my HF flier with the new Icon storage pricing, my first reaction was I guess reality has set in for HF on the Icon storage. I was looking at them. Very nice but I didn't see the value proposition. Now at least, if I had some room, I might take a look. I have some 7-8 year old US General items. At that time, I didn't know anyone that didn't think those were great value for the money. HF might want to look at some of the Icon tools too. On the pricing and all the discounts you cited. Reminds of of most of the car dealers in the old days, and still some today. We need a Car Max for tools. Here's the price. You want it or not? 😂

How long did it actually take to receive box after ordering

Icon vs used snap on? Which one do you think is best.

Just to clarify it appears that for qualified individuals of the HF credit card the one-time 10% off will be applied to your first purchase and does not count towards the 5% “rewards program” and if you also qualify for and chose the 0% interest financing option you will forfeit the 10% off your first purchase. You can NOT stack 0% interest financing and the 10% and 5% rewards back off first purchase per the fine print located here: www.harborfreight.com/credit

My only complaint about the Icon box is the depth. 25" is very shallow and you lose a lot of space vs the 30" deep boxes. If they actually came out with a 68x30" or 84"x30" like the snap on epiq, then then I would take it a bit more seriously about being compared to snap on, mac, matco and cornwell. I'm sure they are great boxes, I'd have one for home. But I couldn't get by with one at work due to the 25" deep

Lots of luck getting them delivered. Have had Icon boxes ordered since April 3rd this year and keep getting the run around on when I might get them. I was told that delivery would be 2-4 weeks when ordered. It's now August 7th and still no boxes. I'm starting to think Harbor Freight is running a scam. Got message that boxes were at regional facility some three weeks ago, but Ryder delivery says they will not let him pick up the order. Pretty sad since I spent over $7000 with them. Calls and emails seems to do no good getting answers.

So it's possible to have it delivered to your shop?

$1612 is a much more fair price on that 56" box using that %10 coupon and paying it off when the statement comes. Otherwise it was just under $1800, they had to lower the price so that synchrony would finance the people who bought them. They were probably having people get approved but they wouldnt get approved for the amount to buy a Icon box. Synchrony is the company we use at the sewing machine shop and this would work with tool boxes, so if a person who might be in the upper 500s lower 600s could get approved around the $2000 mark, then make payment for a few months and get the credit line extended to a higher amount so then a person could add on more and get another separate 36 month no interest contract. We would sell someone a sewing machine that would use their full credit line and then a few months later they would come back and buy a cabinet for it or other things that cost a lot to buy upfront.

I'm looking to reduce floor space taken up by my Cornwell box. Damn thing is 67Wx47Hx30D. By no means huge but, it's in a small hole, it's getting old, parts are getting hard to find, and I need to fit an air compressor in that hole as well. I went and looked at the Icon today just to get an idea Today and tomorrow (7/26/2020-7/27/2020) they're running 25% off so, the 56" roll cab plus stainless top plus hutch would cost me about $3,000 with free delivery. Available colors are the traditional red or black, and they have blue and that sick as tits green. The dude at the store said that everybody working at his store are trying to convince corporate to release an all black version as well as FDE (Iraqi desert tan) version. I looked at the picture on the side of the display model and I says "Dude, you see the green with black trim? Reverse that shit. Get those Grave Digger colors goin on. But, make it flat black instead of gloss because gloss black is impossible to keep clean and looks like shit." I'm debating on it. I've already owned 7 toolboxes and 4 service carts since I was a little kid and got my first old school Craftsman steel throw box. I don't wanna buy another Goddamn toolbox. Besides, it's Chinamese Harbor Freight shit. They'll probably recall it. And give it 10 years, they'll discontinue the product line. 5 years after that, they'll stop selling replacement parts. Then you're screwed. He already said they're talking about discontinuing U.S. General. Which sucks cause I was also considering buying a stack on display down there. What they really need to do with these, is give you drawer customization. I need one full length tall drawer to stand up my sockets, one full length short drawer for wrenches, one bulk drawer for power tools, and one bulk drawer for kits and shit. For everything else, I need shorter drawers. Not the 6 or 7 different drawer heights that are automatically put into every box. And I shouldn't have to order replacement drawers and slides and assemble it myself. For the money they want, I should be able to order the box configured exactly the way that I want it. Check out the toolbox configurator on MATCO's website. That's what HF needs. A website where you can build your box and see how it looks, and then place your order. Cut out the idiots at the store who you just know are going to order the wrong goddamn color or screw something else up. And I also think they need to stop trying to compete with Snap-On. We all know this shit is nowhere remotely close to Snap-On quality. And Icon is most likely made in Chinama whereas Snap-On is made in the U.S.A.

I still think the icon boxes are still to high in price
