This report regards a defective wheel(s) on a Kobalt brand large mobile tool storage chest designed to hold hundreds of pounds of tools. Use: The tool chest was used by an adult homeowner in a home workshop environment. The tool chest was not exposed to degrading or unusual substances or any improper use. The chest is normally stationary and only moved a few feet on occasion. On September 8, 2020 I was relocating the large tool chest (this is the lowest system of three stacked/nested tool chests) when it stopped rolling suddenly. I checked the wheels and noticed that there were rubber pieces next to one of the wheels. Looking closer it was apparent that the wheel was not functional. Hazardous condition: Apparently the defective plastic wheel tread overmold deteriorated causing the wheel tread to separate from the plastic wheel hub. The resulting reduction in circumference of the single affected wheel caused a severe wobble and loss of unit stability. The large and heavy tool chest (six feet tall when combined with the other three chests) in that condition is not able to be used safely and a dangerous condition exists in that there is a high risk of collapse and an accompanying potential for serious injury of death.

Harbor Freight has been stringing me along for 7 months. I purchased your 60in 4 drawer wood workbench,and had a number of problems with defective parts, I understand wood splits, no quality control. Ive been remodeling my garage to fit; which includes electrical so it's been a while, my point is I've only opened these drawers less than ten times, and 2 of the 4 drawers do not function, the slide exploded and as a result cut my finger. I can send photos of the blood still on the drawers and the cut. Also the pieces of slide that came apart. You need to assist me in this problem as I am more than certain that the other two drawers will do the same and I am already upset about your product injuring me; which, is just absurd for a drawer. I do Not wish to send back a fully assembled bench, but I would bring in the drawers or slides, If I get hurt again, this would bad for you and me, and I'm certain you want to fix a Dangerous product. Product_Or_Service: 60 in. 4 drawer work bench Order_Number: [REDACTED] Account_Number: [REDACTED] I Assembled this bench with glue and a lot of time and effort,because, it wobbles and is not made for the type of work it is sold for, such as sawing and sanding. Harbor freight made ME research replacement drawer glides; because,"Unfortunately, the replacement parts you’re requesting are not available, and we are unable to order the parts from our manufacturer." The have agreed to pay for replacement glides (IF) I sign and notarize a statement and give a color copy of my Drivers License; which, I don't believe is even legal. These drawers were empty and brand new when the guides exploded, they are unsafe and a hazard. two drawers are unusable, the other two obviously can't have any weight placed in them or pulled in or out or the glides will explode. They obviously lied about the weight limits they listed. I have researched the safe replacement guides, they agreed to replace them; But, I refuse to sign their statement and send

I recently have a small space to build a work shop and picked up a table kit from Harbor Freight SKU: 58832. The safety issue I have with this is the drawers are set back from the lip of the table and since the drawer slides require a bit of force to pull them open. If you have any fingers above the top of the handle you will crush your fingers between the drawer and the underside of the lip of the table. I did so and smashed my nail hard enough to leave a painful hematoma under my thumb nail. I also asked someone else to try them and they did the same thing their finger. I think this is a flaw in the design and that the drawers should come all the way out to the end of the table so you can't get fingers caught in the drawer/table lip.

The consumer wanted to illustrate his concerns about a wooden work bench he recently purchased. The size is designed to be 48X24 inch. The consumer feels the product is unsafe because the legs of the workbench have very sharp corners and poses a potential safety concern. The consumer stated that the packaging gives a false sense of how the product will appear upon assembly. The consumer has not been harmed by the product. The consumer has been in contact with the firm about the issue and was told that the design was changed six months to the current format. The consumer was directed by the firm to call the retailer for a refund. The consumer called the retailer today and they are aware of the problem, but is unsure if they have removed their stock from the shelf. The consumer also feels this product is unstable and could fall on a nearby child.

The consumer stated he purchased a “6 foot stainless steel work surface” and he installed it in his garage. The consumer stated that his 12 years old son was sitting on a stool (the seat twist) in front of the work surface.

The consumer stated that they put pressure on the wound to stop the bleeding and then proceeded to place a bandage. The consumer stated that the next day the realized the bleeding would not stop and they had to take his son to his family physician. The physician used butterfly [REDACTED] to assist in closing the laceration. The consumer stated that the physician did not prescribe any medicine. The consumer stated that he contacted the manufacturer and they did not assist him. He stated that they kept transferring him to different departments and the recall department advice him to contact CPSC. The consumer believes that this product has a laceration hazard that should be investigated.

We have a TRINITY 48" Stainless Steel Rolling Workbench that tipped over and fell on my wife. We purchased this product from Costco in December 2015. This product appears to be too-heavy. It was filled with an assortment of tools and supplies. It was on a hard, level surface in the basement of our home. The workbench caused a puncture wound to her foot resulting in a visit to the emergency room.
