I think it really depends on what tools you have and where you use them
I have 6 of the mechanics type tool boxes, 3 stacked, then a 2 and a 1 on top of a short filing cabinet and my beer fridge. Then more in a few other places. But they’re all in the workshop/garage
Doing any work in the house was a bit of a faff because I always needed something I’d forgotten to take in. I have a zipped bag (an army surplus tank tool bag) that contains normal basic tools so I can grab it to do work in the house. Has a range of stuff like screwdrivers, combi drill, electric screwdriver, drill bits, spirit level, tape measures, different pliers, plier wrench etc. It’s just empty enough that I can zip it up. This set up mostly works, I have duplicates for everything in the workshop so I can leave the tool bag in the house without it causing any major concern
EDIT – used to have a stanley tool box but found it cumbersome and somehow always too small all at the same time
