I purchased on a few years ago in cherry. I don’t use it for tools. I use it a giant keep sake box for all my mementos, hunting diaries etc. It’s really the ultimate to keep all of your priceless memories in. If the house burns down, what I’m taking is my Gerstner with all the stuff that money can’t buy.I also recommend the liquid finisher as I can’t find anything else that gives it that incredible finish. Everything is very expensive but worth it.

Years of consideration led me to purchase this model. It is slightly larger, more beautiful and of higher quality than I anticipated. This model is basically the size of a small trunk. A lifetime of collecting odds and ends fits into the drawers no problem. The hardware is solid which makes it easy to move around. The walnut finish is beautiful. Well done Gerstner.

I was real lucky to find a new GO92XL that was still in the box! What a great piece. I have the riser for it and now want the roller base.
I have a 90 anniversary American Cherry 92XL and want a riser and base for that too.
Both are of the best quality!

Bought a 2nd class chest on a sale they had. picked up the chest and base for $1000 off retail of a new 1st class combo. Could not be happier, Beautiful chest and riser, drawers slide as if they are on glass. Better then ball bearing slides. You have to hunt to find the flaw too.
I would not hesitate to recommend Gerstner and will be adding more to the collection.

I purchased a GO92XL approx. 10 years ago and she has aged beatifully. It is a very functional and useable chest with excellent storage and stands out in any tool room I’ve worked in. I couldn’t be happier.

I purchased my Rustic Hickory 2613 chest about 12 months ago and I wanted to say that I love it!!! The character in the wood grain is even more impressive than your website photos. You guys make awesome chests, it is true American Craftsmanship.

I bought the American Cherry Pro – Series Chest with the addition of the brass backplates for the chest. This is better in person then seeing the pictures. The people at Gerstner are fine craftspeople and great to deal with. The chest can pass for great furniture. I am very pleased and will buy from them again
