Chests Anywhere Review

Chests Anywhere opens a single searchable inventory list that can reach any chest on the farm, the fridge, the shipping bin and Junimo huts.

It does not speed machines up or change prices. What it changes is the cost of distance, and distance is a large part of the late-game routine on a big farm.

Verdict

Turns chests, fridges, the shipping bin and Junimo huts into one searchable inventory. It is convenience with a cheat-adjacent flavour, so grade it by why you play: as a time saver it is excellent, as a challenge it removes logistics.

Pros and cons

Pros

Remote access to chests, fridges, the shipping bin and Junimo huts from one searchable list.
Actively maintained by the SMAPI author.
Removes a large amount of late-game walking without touching machine logic.

Cons

Cheat-adjacent by design: it removes logistics rather than making them faster.
Multiplayer behaviour is not documented clearly enough for us to confirm it.

Best for

Late-game farms with dozens of chests, and players who dislike walking back to the shipping bin.
