When it comes to storage, most of us have thought of toolboxes as the go-to for, well, tools.
But what if we told you that these humble chests have found a chic new purpose?
Thanks to Super Cheap Auto, shoppers are now taking a page out of the tradie handbook books by ditching their drawers for the tiny ToolPRO miniature tool cabinet to store everything from makeup pallets and hair clips to jewellery.
Who knew a toolbox could be so versatile?
Available in either a two-drawer or four-drawer set-up for $24.99 and $29.99 respectively, these beauties are so popular they’re practically flying off the shelves—and TikTok is loving it.
One TikToker, Ally Lucy Sydney, got her hands on both the two- and four-drawer versions in eyepopping pink and showcased their potential in a now-viral video.

“You really need the full set, and there’s no waiting until Christmas!” she captioned her post, adding that these items are selling out nationwide.
With 1.4 million views and counting, it’s safe to say Ally isn’t alone in her excitement.
Another user, Caity, shared her toolbox love story in a TikTok where her boyfriend surprised her with both versions in aqua.
“You have no idea how happy I am,” she wrote, clearly thrilled with her new, unconventional storage solution.
The FOMO is real
The hype has sparked a wave of envy, with comments flooding in from those who missed out or live overseas. “My man got me a pink one for my birthday; some lady nearly threw hands at him for it,” one user joked.
Others lamented the lack of stock: “We need more ASAP. So sad I can’t get the pink right now,” and “Cries in Canadian,” were just a few of the comments.
Even users in the U.S. are desperate to get their hands on these quirky chests, with one writing, “I need someone to send me this in the US…”
But if pink and aqua aren’t your vibe—or you simply can’t find them—there’s good news. It looks like plenty of black and red versions are still available, ready to add a pop of practical style to your bedroom storage.
