STANLEY FATMAX Waterproof Toolbox Storage with Heavy Duty Metal Latch, Portable Tote Tray for Tools and Small Parts, 28 inch, 1-93-935

After a prolonged period of faultless service from Amazon I call into question the choice of using a French based third party courier who were wholly lamentable. The first attempt at my delivery failed, the second attempt was late and during this time I apparently had a sex change operation where I went from being John to Emma? Throughout this I was repeatedly lied to as indeed were Amazon even to the point where the corrective phone call I was supposed to receive never actually happened .Right that's got that off my chest now on with the toolbox. It's cavernous at 28 inches in length which is particularly useful for storing larger hand tools such as saws, extended drill bits and claw hammers. The square based design not only provides strength but also assists in being able to store your heavier tools at the bottom as there is very little taper so the actual footprint of the box remains large. I weigh approximately 80kg and I sat on it, stood on it and hopped from foot to foot on it with no issues. I personally like the two thirds length tote box as it allows more flexibility. You can easily store deeper objects like power sanders etc.I have yet to tow it behind a boat on a lake to see if it's waterproof because I've been busy , however I have no doubt that the seal works as effectively as stated. The metal clasps do have a fractional amount of side to side play in them and one of mine needed a little attention with a pair of long nosed pliers but all is fine now. The handle, hinges and general construction all seem to be of a reasonable standard and should last well if not abused .The reason that I have given the five stars is there is nothing better at this price point and at every stage of my problematic delivery Amazon provided excellent customer service and support otherwise I would probably still be waiting now.

Ordered this for my partner as his old box broke. Very sturdy box, the clicks are high quality and do not feel flimsy or breakable. Very good size box for tools, fits in car boot or van. Two layers for smaller or larger tools. Very practical.

Deep and wide to store everything from my saw to selection of hand tools. I like thatbit has a rubber seal around the edge to keep out water although I haven't tested to see if this actually works. Great sturdy latches which can be locked. Lid has a groove to hold and cut items on top including measurements printed. Seems durable and although I think you could sit or stand on top I don't think it's really sturdy enough to take too much weight. Handle seems strong and thick enough to deal with heavier tools. I've managed to pack away the majority of mynmostbuseful and frequent tools and like the organising layer that sits in middle which can be moved. Overall great tool box but not sure great value for money in comparison to other toolbox and providers so loses a start. Otherwise quite pleased just missing a drawer to tuck away loose items.

The first thing you notice about this toolbox is that it's solid. It feels weighty and when you hold it you can believe the claims about its strength and waterproof capabilities.Make sure you check the dimensions when ordering - this is a large toolbox. My 4 year old daughter also thinks this makes a great seat for her to sit on when I'm outside working in the garden!As in the description, it does include a "tote tray" for storing smaller items, but it's important to note this is only half the length of the toolbox. This means that while you can store a few smaller items easily, primarily this toolbox is only going to be useful for storing larger items which can be easily organised in the large storage area (or you're going to have a very messy toolbox) so this is unlikely to be suitable as your only tool storage solution.I'm pleased with the purchase and would definitely recommend this product for it's decent build quality but with the caveat about smaller tool organisation.

Second one of these purchased- sturdy and spacious

Love it. Wanted a big toolbox for all my cordless kit. I might have had a miss spent youth playing Tetris, but it paying off with how much stuff I have in the trusty Stanley toolbox. I am able to fit a circular saw, jigsaw, drill driver, SDS drill, impact driver, grinder, multitool, orbital sander, battery charger, 4x 2ah batteries, 4x 4ah batteries and a multitude of drill bits and sanding and grinder disks.Truthfully when it is that full I can hardly pick it up, but it’s brilliant just to lift it into the boot of my car and knowing I have everything in it to complete any DIY job that I need to.Even with the toolbox do full, the handle and clasps do not feel like they are about to give way, and the box is robust enough to feel confident when cutting timber on the groove on the top.Personally I don’t use the insert tray as with all the tools in there is not the space, but I am very happy with the tool box and even debating getting another in the same line but slightly smaller for my hand tools.Overall it’s a really good, solid toolbox.

Really big robust toolbox, I’m not small and I can quite happily stand on it, closes very firmly and the rubber seal makes me think it will be useful in wet conditions. The only thing I don’t like is the tray which could sit in the top in a more obvious and secure fashion but that’s a minor gripe for what is a decent toolbox

It's huge, and that is a good thing. The tool tray is perfect for selecting tools and taking them to any job. There are no fiddly top pockets, just all dedicated space.No strange smells from the plastic and from a week of use appears to be strong and durable for my use.Metal clasps are tight with gives confidence this would be water tight if I needed it to be.Highly recommended as a master storage tool box.
