Hilka 7-drawer tool trolley -- any good?

What brands would you recommend? Clarke, Hilka, Sealey or any other? Dirty Pro Tools [sic] on Amazon do quite a large one in a range of colours for under £100. Some reviewers are saying the metal on all the cheap trolleys is on the thin side. Supposing I wanted the Rolls-Royce of tool trollies, what would I look for? It needs to be W x H x D = 600 x 800 x 300 approx.

This one looks like a good buy at £122 plus small delivery charge:

Surely you don't want one that rusts like this?

(a) it's plastic, not metal (b) it's too small (c) wheels are on the side, not the bottom! (d) looks ugly (e) ridiculously high price

I have the Halfords Industrial Chests. Good Quality, and they are on special at the moment, if you want 2.

Can also get another 15% off with the Halfords Trade Card.

Comparing economy box with similar size,5 drawer, pro brand, total weight, cheapo 29Kg Beta 52Kg , almost twice as much metal for about 4 times price, but depends on your needs

I looked at the Halfords offerings, but have you seen the delivery price? £39.99!

Anyway, I've now ordered the Dirty Pro UK 5-drawer mobile unit for around £125 with delivery, so we'll see what it's like come Monday.

I received the tool trolley yesterday and it is fantastic. It took only about 15 minutes for me to bolt on the castors/wheels and the handle. It looks exactly like the photo (I ordered the blue one). This tool chest is VERY good value for money, being far cheaper than comparable items from other suppliers. The lockable drawers slide in and out smoothly. Each drawer is fitted with a loose rubber mat.

Highly recommended.
