CLC Custom Leathercraft 1578 Open Top Soft Sided Tool Box, 14 in., 31 Pocket

Inner design of the tool bag was changed. Slots were removed that would allow me to setup my tools the way that I can have easier access to them. I have always bought this bag and this time being my 5th one was pretty disappointing. Hope to find better one next time. But over all , it's a good bag

The company must have “updated” how this bag is made. I watched a YouTube video a few months ago, where someone showed how this specific bag is great to store bulky power tools in the center compartment because the handle pivots from side to side for easy access. They even added a link to this product in their video. The video is not quite two years old. So it’s not terribly old. But the handle does NOT flip down. And that is a shame because how am I supposed to shove power tools inside it without ripping the foam on the handle and just overall struggling every time I need access to that center compartment? It’s a terrible design flaw. And the price is pretty steep to begin with.

This is the third one of these that I have bought. They seem to last about 4 years which is pretty good. I almost sent this one back, and I probably should have.They have made some changes in the way they make this bag. They eliminated the flashlight holder. I guess they dont think I will be needing a flashlight.Now my flashlight is always in the bottom of the bag. They eliminated some tool holders on the inside end of the bag. The older bags had a heavier material on the bottoms of the tool pockets to keep sharper tools from poking thru. Very disapointed to see this has been changed to a lighter material. Still a good bag I guess, why did they have to screw it up?

I have a smaller bag from CLC that I have used it at work for a couple of years that I really like, so I purchased this one for home. I think this one if a great size for the "handyman" and allows one to put a hammer and/or drill in the open middle section. I've learned to pretty much just grab this tool-box, throw in a couple of items if needed and do the work at hand. My old metal toolbox never got used mostly because the tools in it weren't as accessible and it was more cumbersome. I would recommend this brand above others. Pay a couple more dollars for the durability. Most of the maintenance guys use this brand where I work because they hold up. They also make some all leather models if you need something even more durable.

Was definitely a good choice!I do facilities maintenance and electricians bags do not handle the abuse for long and begin to sag and lean after awhile. I chose this bag for more storage capacity but mostly for being rectangular with a metal handle to help keep it from the effects of a soft sided square bag. So far I'm very happy and the added pockets help you organize tool location for easier grab of your specific tool and don't have to dig around or pull stuff out to get what your after. It's nice and well thought, convenient layout of pockets inside and out.

I do maintenance for an apartment community and I have plenty of room to keep my regular tools organized and I also have room in the middle to take parts with me on jobs so I can have everything I need at my finger tips. The bag is sturdy and the shoulder strap has come in handy a few times on those top floor, full bag trips. 10/10 would recommend.

Best brand of bags I've had to hold my tools. Was looking around town for a bag like this but everything was not what I was looking for and was more expensive. Got this tool bag due to had it before and fits/organizes my tools well. Worked perfectly for this General Contractor as the old bag but they went cheap on a few things. The end panels do not hold up well and it appears the internal supports aren't what they used to be. I'll support the ends one way or another because everything else on this bag is what I was looking for but a bit disappointed that they went and cheapened a high-quality tool bag. But what is new with the production of items in today's world of accountants and the investor mentally apparently taking over?

A classy toolbox great value and dyeable
