About Us

Tool Box Insider started because Carolyn McLean was tired of sifting through endless product pages and conflicting advice when trying to find eco-friendly tools that actually worked for her home projects. She’s someone who cares deeply about making better choices for the planet but also wants equipment that lasts and does the job well. Over time, she realized there wasn’t a go-to place where reviews met straightforward, practical guidance on keeping these green tools running smoothly.

What you’ll find here is just that: real experiences with sustainable home improvement gear, plus clear, no-nonsense maintenance advice. Carolyn personally tests and uses the products she writes about, sharing what works, what doesn’t, and how to get the most out of them without any unnecessary hassle. The goal is simple; help you feel confident in your purchases and keep your eco-friendly equipment in great shape so it truly makes a difference.

This isn’t about selling you the latest fancy gadget or pushing products for clicks. It’s about careful, thoughtful insights from someone who’s been in your shoes, balancing responsibility with practicality. If you’re here, it means you care about your home and the environment, and that’s exactly why Carolyn created Tool Box Insider: to offer clear, honest, and reliable information that you can count on every time you pick up a tool or get ready to maintain it.
