Tool Storage Recommendations and Feedback

As I am sure that many others here have experienced, I have found my tool storage lacking after buying my car. My current Craftsman tool chest is 'oozing' over and it is time to obtain some additional storage. I went to our closest Sam's Club (Birmingham, AL) earlier this week and saw this particular stainless steel tool chest (41" steelglide) distributed by CSPS Metal, Inc. Its dimensions are 41"W X 18"D X 61"H which is a monster - it weighs in a 379.19 lbs!. The price, although not really in my budget, was $635 yet this price was considerably more realistic than other tool chests that I have seen of roughly the same size. CSPS supplies both Sam's Club and Costco with similiar tool chests. After closely examining this chest for a good 30 minutes it appears that it is rather sturdy and well constructed. Has anyone had any experience with CSPS stainless steel tool chests? Any feedback about these tool chests will be greatly appreciated.
