Looks pretty decent, but for the price point it's fantastic. I'll keep using my packout system for every day at work, but I might just pick up this husky one for camping gear! The little internal organizers look great as tackle boxes and little kits for carabiners, fire starting, etc.
I use mine to sell drugs. Cops never want to search when they see what they think are a bunch of tools. Oh yeah, there's a bunch of tools back there officer.
I just bought this from Home Depot. I returned the Dewalt tough box when I saw this. The Dewalt is great but the Husky is lighter and tough enough for what I need for work. This is one of my best tool purchases so far.
First two features sold me on it already. Nothing like having a table or something to work off of in the field. Also, the Milwaukee always felt cheap to me. Especially the wheels. Glad these have rubber one. Usually just carry veto totes/bags and a belt but I'm getting old. Imma check it out.
Great presentation! I have had my Packout system for a while now and am very satisfied with them, they have held up nicely. Additionally, as others have mentioned, there is a ton of factory and aftermarket accessories available for custom configurations. As the Husky boxes are at a good price point, I would consider them for other applications.
I was very impressed. This is not thin cheap plastic it’s actually pretty rigid like packout. The connections don’t feel cheap and it has some awesome features. I’d put it at number 2 behind packout, for the money it’s competitive.
As usual, another inexperienced, nonprofessional channel got some free products and puts up a positive video to keep getting more free products. You leave out craftsman trade stack, which is much cheaper and more versatile plus connects to all versastak products, that’s a two system for the price of one. Also it’s made in America not communist china . Buy American made products from American companies!!
7:00 He talks about the connect/disconnectors being "two handed opperation" and says a few brands that are two handed. Though, he puts Rigid in there... From my experience, considering i have rigid 2.0 in the cab of my truck and in our big trailer, Rigid boxes are easily 1 handed. Pop the bar off and then move it slightly sideways and the other comes out. THen just pull by the connection bar closest to you. You can disconnect and tote the rigid boxes 100% with one hand.
Thank you, you are the first i have seen to review this system. It seems to be along the Ridgid line with a couple mods. Its decent i guess but other than that little clear organizer fitting in a couple places it doesn't offer much in the way of organizing your tools. Once again a center mounted handle and two hands to unlock a box. The outer rail is a plus, seems like OP can do a few things with that. Thanks again for the review brother .
I hope they expand this set right here. Seems like a real gift set and it meets the price point. You can do a lot with if they expanded like drawers places where you can put a level and extension cord.
I used the previous generation modular toolbox from Husky for a portable power station, with a 100ah LFP batter, 20 amp charge controller, 12v 1,000w AC inverter and a 12v DC loads panel. This new "Buildout" model would not work as well, due to how it's molded.
I have a full set of the Ridgid system I use for my camping chuck box, and I have 2 Packout small parts trays with the rack mounted on the wall of my trailer. Both are great systems, but it’s good to see Husky deliver a much more affordable product. I know a lot of contractors and tradesmen, and spending 1000 bucks on a tool box hurts.
For similar price point, the Craftsman tradestack imo is leaps better than the husky for the sole fact, the lids don't hit the handle. Tradestack lids also have detents so the lids stay locked open when completely up. Tradestack also has DRAWERS, which is big for me. Love having drawers. Plus with the tradestack, dewalt Tstak and Versa stack works with it with an included adapter plate if you buy the roller base. So much more versatility with the tradestack IMO. Good video though!
Drawers I want drawers! Those are most important to me so I can access everything without unstacking. The connect drawers are only $40. That’s why I use husky connect. To get a bigger drawer I cut the bottom off of the top drawer. If Packout was cheaper I would have bought those. Ideally the dolly with the packout cabinet and drawers but too much money. I don’t even need it to slide just a hinged door from the front for easy access like the Packout cabinet. None of the rolling tool box prioritizes this. I don’t want the big bin attached to the wheels
why the f do they all build these as top loaders? wouldn't drawers make way more sense? that why you don't have to unpack anything. just put it against the wall and you have instant access to everything like your garage at home.
I hope they put a magnet with the system like it is on the Klein, put some drawers with this kit and bigger and longer box for those larger and longer tools, then they will pick up some new customers like myself. I like how reasonable those accessories are. Everyone keeps changing their boxes so you have to reinvest in another kit because they're not expanding it anymore.Smh. I hope husky keeps this set going and expand it. They are on to something. Thanks for sharing
The cool thing about the small tool box at the top is that they make a mechanics kit that specifically fits in it and even a foam liner to keep everything in place, it was perfect for me since I do lots of mobile mechanic work
I still think the husky won't last those springs will wear out quick. They look cheap especially the inserts. The clips will fall off the rails if you bang it by accident
They always come up with something cooler after I’m already outfitted with the coolest 😂😂😂. I have some humongous husky boxes so I bought Milwaukee packout to help save my back, now this haha
@@JakeWeihe I’ve had the wheels fall as well, big Stanley boxes the same, but they are both ‘back of the truck water tight’. Just tooo darn big when full to move in and out or up and down. They are fine for ramp door trailer as far as I’m concerned but the smaller boxes are the way to go with trucks 💪🏽💪🏽
It looks like the buildout system doesn't need a caution sign like the connect system should have and it would say WATCH THE FINGERS because the connect system has a lot of pinch points all over.
Here's my observation: this is a viable Packout alternative because the most important feature is just the size of the box. Packout is obviously the best overall, and the shameless clones of its name and look are sad, lol, but once you reach the size and BASIC features of the Packout, you're like 99% of the way to the same thing. It's a box for other stuff. Corollary: the difference between different SIZE/WEIGHT systems is bigger than the difference in features/quality between systems of different COSTS. You will gain more benefit by shunning brand loyalty and introducing more brand variety into your work space. Not every tool or job needs the biggest and heaviest box you have, regardless of the cost. Corollary: adding more organization tools to your existing storage system may provide more benefit than switching systems. I'm befuddled that companies don't offer and support more accessories like hooks and dividers and containers. It's great that Jake is designing and selling his own accessories. Just having the right size cups for your parts is really nice, but really difficult to get officially. These third-party accessories are a real opportunity for people to upgrade the storage they already have.
I bought the previous version a year go full kit for 89.99 loaded that baby up with everything I need in my ford transit HVAC install tech they are built to last and affordable highly recommend it save your money Guys
Damn, might have to pick these up. I really like the packout, but i wouldn't use it enough for the price point. Thanks for the breakdown! Gets the sub!
In the Connect system (as well as some others) putting the handle down makes it act as a foot, that keeps the box from tipping over as easily. You're supposed to put the handle down to keep it stable. I imagine that's why they don't fix the lid/handle issue.
Yeah the handle doesn’t touch the ground. The rolling box has a much wider stance than the connect system. The connect system is tiny in comparison to all these other boxes
@@JakeWeihe it would be used to step up to a sleep platform in a wedge style camper. Wouldn't be continuous, just momentarily used as a step. Do you think it would hold up after time?
I just gotta say great video but theres a reason the packout is the top in price and use. Ive tried them all. Load them with actual tools not hand tools and tell me which ones hold. Only construction workers know about this.
Thanks. Husky buildout is brand new and has a lot of potential. It holds a box full of hand tools just fine and that probably weighs more than a variety of “actual” power tools.
I just saw these today. I was blown away by the quality. It was by far the sturdiest out of all the boxes I checked out, including Milwaukee. I kinda wish I would've went with this set up. I would trust it falling off a roof, literally.
Looks like a good system. Will have to see it in person. I have the Milwaukee packout and love it. However, similar problem going to be with this version with the tray feature in the top lid of the small tool box - going to hold an ass load of water from the rain when in the back of my truck. It’s a pain with the Milwaukee system, too.
Do you know if they are coming out with a 4 wheel dolly base? Lot of space wasted with the two wheel bottom. Would be nice to use as a Mechanics Roll-Away as apposed to a job site box.
Any and all of these systems amount to nothing more than sheer stupidity without one defining feature. The largest and lowermost unit HAS to have the option of being a drawered unit. And subsequent units have to have the option of being drawered as well. Otherwise, the whole system is for the hopelessly braindead. What nutcase wants to unpile the whole damn system to get to one tool in a bin that isn’t immediately accessible? It defeats the whole purpose of modularity and accessibility. If I ever bought one of these systems again, that’s where I would start. Every other feature is a possible cherry on top in that happenstance, but without it, it renders the whole system obsolete and pointless.
I think the main reason why packout is the most popular is because of all the different tool boxes and accessories as well as the one-handed release mechanism. I was considering flex but for the same price with much less attachments/boxes and a two-handed release mechanism, I might just go with packout once my Toughbuilt XL rolling tool bag can’t fit most of my essentials/ breaks down. This husky built out feels really solid since my Home Depot is full of them but I do not like the two-handed release system. It is very affordable and I can only imagine it getting even cheaper during the holiday deals so that’ll be interesting. It is already beating out the craftsman and kobalts for similar quality with a better price. Once they decide to make drawers, these can become people’s affordable favorites. Great video as always!
@@JakeWeihe agreed! I love my pouches and the rolling bag! Their hand tools also seem really good but all I have from them is a pair of 10 inch channel locks that were on clearance at my Lowe’s that I’ve yet to use. I’m kind of disappointed in flex, they haven’t released anything for the stackpack pretty much all year after such a promising start. I would’ve expected at least a tool tote like Milwaukee has by now
Nice! I’m not gonna say “I told you so” to everyone about stackpack but I just had a bad feeling about them. Way to much money spent on marketing and free stuff to influencers that made one complimentary video and never talked about it again
Might be ok for the weekend warrier/homeowner. Don’t see it as adaptable for professionals. Having the latches on the sides means these are going to take up more space. You’ll always have either have nothing on either side in order to access the latches. Or you’ll have to pull out the stack in order to access the latches. Not having drawers is a deal breaker as well. I can’t see husky investing tons of money in adding accessories. I can’t see how the latching system would allow half cases either. I just don’t see how this system will be superior to Milwaukee for lots of reasons. (For the record, I’m mostly a Dewalt guy using all Packout).
So far looking good, I’m impressed for it to be Husky and the price point. I just picked up the set myself. Accessories and organization are very limited, if you make some solutions for the build out I would definitely purchase them!
I need a way to attach these to a cable lock. I work out of town a lot, and am in hotels, and people suck. I have 2 stacks, and if I could attach them with a cable lock to the tie downs in my bed, it would be great. It’s a pain to haul these in and out of hotels.
@@JakeWeihe the cables I’m looking at have a loop on them. I think I’m going to use a bar stock like you showed in your video down each stack, and run the cable between the box and the bar, just need to figure out a way to lock the bar in place. Padlocks would work like you show in your video, but keeping up with keys scares me, I can see one of my guys loosing them, lol.
The closures are no joke. I caught the side of my finger in one the other day and it f'n hurt! For those who are waiting for add-ons - I realize not everyone has a 3D printer, but I'm assuming most of you have reasonable skills and all sorts of tools. I've been making add-ons from scratch and from other things I find at home and at stores. They'll work for what I need them for until when/if Husky comes out with something better for my needs. It really depends on what each individual uses their toolboxes for and how they use them.
Litterally the fact that they are black are is why i have been considering buying kobalt craftsman, all husky jobboxs.... and so on. Its the main reason i have not spent one dollar on a milwaukee packout and i own pretty much all milwaukee
For the love of God almighty I do not need boxes. I need drawers. Is husky going to make drawers can someone answer that
Lol. Hopefully sooner than later
This is exactly how I feel. If I wanted to just pile stuff on top of each other I’ll buy more buckets.
pointless without drawers
@@WoodyONealdamn straight
For real!!! #Drawers !! If the #husky system drops drawers before #Ridgid does I am switching systems!

Me too

An abus 70/40 lock fits
Not buying since everything i own it’s Milwaukee, speaking of tool boxes
Very informative!!

Wow your ignorance is impressive
Awkward to pick up bottom box .no handles
Valid
really hoping they make drawers
Milwaukee packout is black in germany, but i like the Red😢
And most people are the opposite in the us. 😂
This system has possibilities !
You sold me !! I just subscribed !!👍

Would have loved it if you showed internal dimensions. Can't fins that listed anywhere.
Check out my other toolbox videos including my Best of 2023 - I show a detailed comparison of Husky Build-Out, Packout, Ridgid PGS, and Klein MODbox
Make a lid top like that for other boxes. Those hooks could be used with 2x4s and another box and sheet of plywood to make a table or work surface.
Packout has a flat worktop. Other boxes can have 3rd party worktops as well
Thank you, you are the first i have seen to review this system. It seems to be along the Ridgid line with a couple mods.

WOW! Don't know Huskey put out a new rolling toolbox system. It looks very nice.
What is the price of this?That would be my Is buying.
Or going to a different Pack out name Please comment back thank you
Side handles are horrible. Anything designed this way are a fail.
Lol. I wish I had your backup on my flex stackpack videos
I hope they expand this set right here. Seems like a real gift set and it meets the price point. You can do a lot with if they expanded like drawers places where you can put a level and extension cord.
love to know more about your products
😊
Nice details on the review and comparisons- will look into the custom organizers.

Interesting. Definitely a very specific use case tho
I've asked about this box and where it can be purchased from.But never got a comment back
id love to see it compared to the trade stack and the ridgid 2.0 with them all being in the same price bracket
It’s in the works
Hope they create a Husky tool system on trays that nest into one of the boxes like the Husky Connect system has.
I have a full set of the Ridgid system I use for my camping chuck box, and I have 2 Packout small parts trays with the rack mounted on the wall of my trailer.

Nothing but regrets, the drawers still haven't come out and the lids don't stay aligned and often don't latch.
great video husky for me other cost too much. Can you just stack 3 big boxes ? and can you stack just 22 inch boxes as thats what I use now

Could always make your own. That’s what I did before Packout had drawers
Ryobi link sucks
@@JakeWeihe How so?
Have you ever tested it in person? The quality is terrible for the price
Sorry, Milwaukee is the best. Quality and strong 💪🏼. Thanks 🙏🏽
why the f do they all build these as top loaders? wouldn't drawers make way more sense? that why you don't have to unpack anything. just put it against the wall and you have instant access to everything like your garage at home.
I like the red color of packout... its easier to see items against the red background...
Great idea for the accessory tray, add magnets to stabilize the tool while in the tray...
No drawers is a show stopper it shows that whoever designed it has no idea on how people work.
Yeah its disappointing
Another great review, can you do a side-by-side comparison between Husky Build-Out and the RIDGID 2.0 Pro? Please and thank you.
Coming soon! It’s gonna be Packout vs modbox vs buildout vs ridgid
@@JakeWeihe Thank you 👍🏻

A great video brother. 😊
Thanks!
A+ content! This is really top shelf stuff, as if you had hundreds of thousands of subs! Great job. Please keep it coming.
Thank you!
I’m just here to see what all the Milwaukee fans have to say….
LOL
“Optimized work surface.” Do you shill at shows?
The cool thing about the small tool box at the top is that they make a mechanics kit that specifically fits in it and even a foam liner to keep everything in place, it was perfect for me since I do lots of mobile mechanic work
I still think the husky won't last those springs will wear out quick. They look cheap especially the inserts. The clips will fall off the rails if you bang it by accident
Drawers or it didn't happen
Lol
Heavy box full of tools you need handles to lift ! Milwaukee wins in my opinion....
Just saw them at home cheapo the other day.
It's a 2 draw not a 3 door like ridged
They have a organization tray now but needs dividers inside the trays be a good mod for your 3d printing
I need to buy a rolling box soon. All I need is the bottom. If I have to many stacked on top it just gets to heavy.
They don’t have locking drawers so no way it’s better in any way to Milwaukee
Las ruedas están horribles aquí aplica lo que pagas es lo que tienes muy chafa yo ni regalado lo usaría será porque soy muy fifi

Truee. Might just be best to cover it. Or maybe husky or someone else will release a convex worktop attachment that deflects water
I hope they make a longer toolbox that will have these boxes connect to it. Like that husky low profile 29 gallon rolling tool box
Me too. I really liked that box
Do you know if they are coming out with a 4 wheel dolly base? Lot of space wasted with the two wheel bottom. Would be nice to use as a Mechanics Roll-Away as apposed to a job site box.

do those clip on hooks connect upside down so they oppose each other for cords ?
No only one way

I'm a Packout guy but that handle release gotta be the best among of all the systems currently available.
It’s pretty sweet. MODBOX has some nice clips and ridgids trolly design is cool too tho
what are the inner dimensions?
Does this husky system features drawer boxes like the old stile
Not yet. They only have 5 boxes so far
Savings go away when you have to buy all of the organizers to go inside separately
Lots of people don’t use them anyways. Especially if you just end up using foam inserts
The simulations are great. The pretend locking has awesome vanna-esque, informercial vibe.
Might be ok for the weekend warrier/homeowner. Don’t see it as adaptable for professionals. Having the latches on the sides means these are going to take up more space. You’ll always have either have nothing on either side in order to access the latches. Or you’ll have to pull out the stack in order to access the latches.
Not having drawers is a deal breaker as well. I can’t see husky investing tons of money in adding accessories. I can’t see how the latching system would allow half cases either.
I just don’t see how this system will be superior to Milwaukee for lots of reasons. (For the record, I’m mostly a Dewalt guy using all Packout).
Pros and cons with everything. It will be addressed in a future video
It is perfect for Building Automation work.
So far looking good, I’m impressed for it to be Husky and the price point. I just picked up the set myself. Accessories and organization are very limited, if you make some solutions for the build out I would definitely purchase them!
Just checked your store again. I'm hoping for some custom accessories for this soon!
Gimme drawers!
I need a way to attach these to a cable lock. I work out of town a lot, and am in hotels, and people suck. I have 2 stacks, and if I could attach them with a cable lock to the tie downs in my bed, it would be great. It’s a pain to haul these in and out of hotels.
It doesn’t fit in the slot on the front?
@@JakeWeihe the cables I’m looking at have a loop on them. I think I’m going to use a bar stock like you showed in your video down each stack, and run the cable between the box and the bar, just need to figure out a way to lock the bar in place. Padlocks would work like you show in your video, but keeping up with keys scares me, I can see one of my guys loosing them, lol.
Right off the bat you grossly inflated the price of the packout...
The closures are no joke. I caught the side of my finger in one the other day and it f'n hurt! For those who are waiting for add-ons - I realize not everyone has a 3D printer, but I'm assuming most of you have reasonable skills and all sorts of tools. I've been making add-ons from scratch and from other things I find at home and at stores. They'll work for what I need them for until when/if Husky comes out with something better for my needs. It really depends on what each individual uses their toolboxes for and how they use them.
Litterally the fact that they are black are is why i have been considering buying kobalt craftsman, all husky jobboxs.... and so on. Its the main reason i have not spent one dollar on a milwaukee packout and i own pretty much all milwaukee
Never !
Milwaukee for FUTURE!!!
Lol
Need a dually kit to run 2
Wheels per side.
Good idea
when are they going to release the drawer type version
Price point it's on point bit so far nothing beats Milwaukee packout 🤷
