Dales, if you look at the construction, anchor points, no door liners and paint job on the Husky you will find it is made a lot cheaper than the Yukon. Just something to remember when you do these videos. You said you get a power strip with the Husky, but without getting door liners you will spend another $50 buck or so for them when you get them with the Yukon free. It's kind of a trade off. I guess I would rather have the door liners because my garage has plenty of outlets and I could add the power strip to the cab any time. Also the Yukon is expandable with several side and top cabinet options where the Husky doesn't have that capability. If you look at how the Husky only has one slider on the bottom doors and how they use sheet metal with a couple threads to mount handles and their doors along with no top support except for the wood you can see how they are built much cheaper than the Yukon. The Yukon used rib nuts instead of sheet metal to mount things like handles and wheels where the Husky uses spot welded sheet metal with only a couple threads for the bolts to grab. The Yukon uses the rib nuts which have eight to ten thread and are sandwiched to the body of the cabinet forming a much stronger connection. One last thing to mention is the The Yukon uses much larger bolts to fasten wheels and handles making it much stronger as well as the wood top is secured with bolts to the cabinet where the Husky is just laid on top ready to warp.

Thank you Dale.... more great information, and showing the comparisons so we can try and get best deal for the money. Also a big THANKS to all who share their modifications and hacks... Much appreciated, I've learned many great ideas from all of you. Keep up the great work... 👍🏻👍🏻

Dale!!! Welcome back!!! Great video as always!!!!

Thanks Dale for mentioning my modifications! I always knew there was much more free space on my tool chest than I realized. It was a fun project and it's still serving me well. Per your tip on making the top lid quieter when it closes, I went to my local farm supply store and picked up some self-adhesive small rubber window seal made by MD (part #02576) and stuck it underneath across the top lip. Now it doesn't make a loud noise when I close it.

Thank you for this information!!! It was so so helpful!

Exactly exactly exactly! Just bought 2 52" huskys. It was the 24" depth that was the no brainer for me.

Excellent video Dale. One thing I feel is worth mentioning is the difference in the warranties. The Yukon only has a 90 day warranty vs the Husky which has a 3 year warranty.

Dale Lucid.. Husky for the win on the toolboxes. That 30% off coupon is cool though. Thanks for sharing that..

I was going to get a Yukon but after comparing it to the husky for a few weeks I came to the same conclusion as you. Then I saw the blue 52" 🥰

Hey Dale, good to see you back in full force again.

I freaking love this guy's energy.

What you need to do is turn it over to look underneath, pull the drawers and look inside at the construction. The build quality of the Yukon is infinitely superior to the husky in every way. That husky box may be a little bigger, but it's built like a Childs toy. You have to look beyond some cheap glitzy advertising and consider quality.

Good compare/contrast vid 👍🏽

Man that is an awesome deal! I want one of those!

I went to Ross for a power strip good quality for like 5-10 bucks

VERY GOOD VIDEO MY BROTHER ...I PROBABLY WOULDNT HAVE NOTICE IT...

I know this video is 4 months old, but you can buy BOTH in white. The Husky also has 21” drawers, and the Yukon only has 18” drawers. Plus the Husky has the built in power strip like you stated. Yukon only has a 30 day warranty, and Husky has a 3 year warranty. I’m buying the Husky!!!

Blue Husky is selling for 428 now, and as with all color options it is Unavailable. Just black and white remain.

annnnd today, Cyber Monday, Harbor Freight's price on this tool chest is $419...... or $389 if you're a member >.>

The build quality on the HF version is much better. The husky has some weird garbage going on with their welding tabs and what not inside. How do you do a comparison without taking out the drawers and actually inspecting?

What is thickness of the metal used? Are either of them powder coated inside and outside?

What's your opinion on the 56 in toolboxes by husky vs US General?

You're bumming me out because I just got the Yukon. But I needed a narrow chest for a particular purpose, so I would have bought it anyway. I have 3 US Generals, and when I opened the Yukon crate, I saw that the build quality was about the same. The side handle on the Yukon is a little less fancy, but the wood top is a nice touch, and it's made well. Drawer metal is the same thickness.

Just bought one at Home Depot for 250 Black Friday deals!!

I looked into these carts a while ago and found the same thing...there is too much more bang for the buck in the husky. The husky is the winner...even if you have to have the blue

You have to look at build quality also. Husky doesn’t really have the best build quality in their boxes not that I’m saying Yukon is going to be Snap-on or Matco quality

Yeah... Husky tool boxes are cheaper, but they are not built nearly as durable as US General & Yukon. I generally avoid Harbor Freight, as all my tools are Dewalt USA, Porter Cable USA, Delta USA, Craftsman USA, Demel USA, Estwing USA, Vise Grip USA, Channel Lock USA, Laguna, modern Dewalt, modern Craftsman & some Stanley... but I was genuinely surprised at the build quality of the US general & Yukon boxes. In my search for a tool cart/chest... I looked at Craftsman, Kobolt, & Husky. All are 16 gauge steel, most of them have plastic casters & the casters are mounted on 16 gauge steel. I went with a US General 56", because... 13 gauge steel, metal casters, & thick steel reinforcement where the casters are mounted.

My recent experience with Harbor Freight and Home Depot is Home Depot will stand behind their product without the paper receipt. HOME DEPOT even if it cost a little more!

The husky is better built as well. They used a thicker steel for it and the drawers don't feel so flimsy. I love HF for many many things but the Yukon line started with a 9 drawer, solid built tool cabinet to the two door, one top drawer tool cabinet then the 9 drawer reappeared BUT - not as solid as the first. When it came back they used a thinner steel at the same price as the first one they released. I wanted that one badly but now I'm going to HD for the Husky. Plus the husky has true detent for the drawers so they won't just slide open when you move it while unlocked.

I dont use my husky in a professional setting... just a dyi guy..... no problem with the husky after 4 years...

Good info.

HF is $299 and HD is $348

I still would rather have the Yukon. I was at Home Depot recently and took a look at that workbench, it felt very cheap. The Harbor Freight seemed much higher quality.

I built my own tool cart.

I payed 448 for mine

6 inches is a lot, that's what she said

Bottom line, I`ll bet they both roll out of the same factory!

So.... Husky is the winner here. Good job Dale

For me it’s that Home Depot will deliver my box, and as I have no way how to get it home, besides renting a truck and there’s the problem for me

Yukon is way more heavy duty and will last much longer under real use.

Does your surname refer to your mental or skin condition?
