NewAge Bold 3.0 review - thumbs down.

It's ok but not great. Sorry NewAge but you get a thumbs down.

For the price what else would you get? There are other metal cabinet options but they are double the cost.

[czwest]

You never mentioned what set you would buy for your price point that would be better? What set for same price would be better?

[livesled]

Just installed the same set and I have to say I disagree with some of your points. With the units levelled and anchored properly, all the doors align quite nicely, and they can be shimmed upward using small washers where needed. Only one of my tall cabinets needed one door shimmed and it’s because it was slightly out of level. Are they industrial grade cabinets, absolutely not. But they’re plenty strong for your average hobbyist garage and I believe that’s what they’re advertised as.

New Age product description distinguishes between the Bold and Pro models. It’s clear from their descriptions the heavier gage Pro cabinets are more robust than the Bold and more appropriate for the type of heavy use and treatment you describe.

Did you install it correctly and square up and level the cabinet installs? Just curious

[brandonwellhausen]

I respect your opinion on the product. I feel differently. I have the 14pc set. They came in perfect with no damage of any kind. I looked at the Gladiator /Kobalt/ Craftsman etc stuff and this was and still is a much better set and less money overall. I own awhile set of Gladiator metal cabinets and they are terrible

I bought the Pro set a couple years ago just because I was afraid the bold set looked cheap and flimsy. I really like the pro set. I have a ton of weight in the drawers and they soft close smoothly and the cabinets feel solid. My drawers don’t line up perfectly but much better than what’s yours look like. I got a 16 piece pro set when it was 33% off and around $3, 800. Very expensive but buy once, cry once.

Ok, so do you have a recommendation of anything better for a similar price point. I am shopping right now and trying to decide who to go with. Thanks.

I have the bold set and I do have some complaints, however I am not going to stand on the drawers, twist the slides and yank on the doors. The cabinets do what I ask and that is to keep my junk organized. Yes there are primo cabinets out there for a primo price. I wish we could go to a place that has all the available units in one place so we can compare all the yea's' and nay's and make a decision based on comparison, but we can't. Nice video but when home shops have husky, kobalt, sears or gladiator available, the new age are far above what that group has to offer. New age was quick to respond to my concerns and that was great. Most of those were with shipping damage and not the manufacture proper. I will recommend the new age every time and while the install process was tedious, the end result suits me just fine. The door gaps are always the most noticeable and again thanks for your review

I’ve bought two sets for my garage and my pole barn. I did bolt it into the walls. Admittedly, I was mutinous with my level and adjusting the cabinet with their leveling system. I’ve since built on in wood and it way three times the price. What did you expect for that price point? For the money, I was happy. I enjoy most of your videos, this wasn’t one of them.

How is the stainless table top holding up. Does it scratch up easy, can I bolt a vise to it, and hammer stuff on the top or will I destroy it? Im going with the pro series. But debating between the bamboo or stainless top. Thanks for the review Mate☺👍👍👍

[themarinimario]

Imagine needing the pro version but to cheap to get it so you buy the residential grade then complain abt how it not good when it’s very clear on the type of grade it is 🥴

[r-btoofficial]

Do you think it’s more an $800 product? What value would you put on these because maybe the company is listening.

They could keep their great marketing but targeted volume sales to a larger demographic.

[gadgetmantwincities]

Would it help to spray the insides with a bed liner to stiffen them up and feel tougher?

[emso]

Best stick to Canadian tire or princess auto 🤔

[Powder_Junkie]

what accs do or did you have on the khaos? i recently bought a 17 SBA 800 and im looking at getting some accesories, attachments, hand guards and skid plates, and i would like to hear your suggestions.
thanks you
and thanks for the review!

[oldguy]

What about the pro series with thicker gauge metal?

[TheCrookHook]

Oh man, I can imagine your frustration. How much does this setup go for vs the thicc setup?

[kevinbishop]

I dont know if there is a good solution anymore. It seems like we'll made products at a price point thats not insane may be a thing of the past. I priced put what I wanted in the same platform and it was $8000. I'm hoping to find used vidmar units instead.

[allenr]

You should have got the pro series then.
