I have a Matco MSC12, built like a tank. About the size of one too. Love it. Picked it up, freight damaged (only the upper tray had a dent) for $500.

MAC Tool part # MB190UC they call it the ultimate tool cart for a reason. I have it and I am 100% happy with it

I got a cart from sams club its all stainless steel, its really made for serving food but it works great, I have probably 200 lbs worth of stuff sitting on there right now and its holding fine.

I have the MB190UC and am really happy with it. The wings on top are great for throwing stuff on while you are taking it apart.

Only thing I can complain about is that TWO of the bearing slides are out on mine, and it is less than a year old. One on the bottom drawer, and one in the middle.

The Mac man at work sucks, said he would replace them and hasnt been back around since. Go figure.

Thumbs up

I have the Matco MSC4 in yellow. It is awsome! I've recieved countless compliments from guys that have newer Snap On/Mac double/triple bay boxes. You can fit tons of crap in it too. I'm not sure if it was supposed to come with them, but mine has 4 swivel casters instead of 2 swivel/2 fixed which makes it weird to move for a longer distance.

I actually like it better than my MB7525 double bay. If you buy one, get the side shelf too.
