Clarke CBB217C HD Plus 7 Drawer Tool Cabinet review
The Clarke CBB217C HD Plus 7 Drawer Tool Cabinet is a professional quality tool chest at an affordable price that would grace any home mechanic’s workshop or garage.
As home mechanics we all lust after a quality, multi-drawer cabinet in which to store tools but we are often put off by their high prices, bulky size and complexity.
But this CBB217C HD Plus 7 Drawer Tool Cabinet from Clarke, which is available via Machine Mart, is a very tempting offering by virtue of its ‘just right’ size, affordable £320 price and pro-quality features.
With seven drawers (five shallow, at 73mm deep, and two deeper at 152mm) there’s all the space most need for their prized spanners, sockets and more. All the drawers run on smooth roller bearings and come complete with liners. While the cabinet is topped with cushioned, non-slip rubber matting to provide a safe surface for either tools in use or as a base on which to stack a supplementary cabinet (such as Clarke’s CBB209C).
But best of all is the CBB217C is also mounted on great-looking, five-inch, industrial grade, chrome spoked wheels (two fixed and two swivelling with brakes) which means it can be easily rolled around your workspace via the chunky, chrome handle that can be mounted on either side of the cabinet.
In short, the Clarke CBB217C is a great-sized, very sturdy, well-made and very versatile tool cabinet that will be the star of any home workshop or garage and yet also costs just £322.80.
It’s also received some glowing reviews on the Machine Mart website with the vast majority of buyers awarding it 5/5 stars with typical recent comments being:
Steve: “Nicely made, solid cabinet – ideal for what I need. Packaging was good, too, and protected it well in transit…. Assembly was very easy – just need to bolt on the wheels and the handle. It looks as if it will last very well – nice, thick steel used in the construction and the drawers glide smoothly. I'm very pleased with it.”
And John: “Good product, fast delivery, exactly what I was looking for.”
