I just got into the car alarm installation trade, i came in with a tool bag FILLED with tools... After a couple days, I've had enough of carrying a bag around. I bought one of these guys right away after seeing this video. Holy crap! Quality, price, expansions/versatility etc. This has to be the best budget stack system on the market. The only other budget stack that cought my eye is craftsman due to how customizable they are as well, but they have plastic latches where the hart one has metal. Most of the other budget systems, aren't great. Anyways, thank you so much for your review, I really appreciate it as it helped me decide what stack system to get. I needed to see someone use it in an actual trade, you supplied that! 🙏
Thanks for the review. I have had the Rigid system for years. Bought the new 3 drawers but found that unit is heavy. These drawers seem to be good sizes to go in and out of jobs. May give them a try.
Thanks for the video! I’m a DIY guy and this seems perfect for me. If a tradesman is rocking it, it’s more than enough for me. I like the smaller footprint to keep in the bed of the truck.
Yeah I bought it because of the price. It's still running strong, broke one of the small blue dividers with a 50 pound weights but it didn't break the Hart box so I was surprised. I got tons of those blue dividers left over from organizing my boxes. Popped a new one in and good to go.
Thanks for the review. I use these for all my 2nd Amendment accessories :D. I run Kobalt XTR and have quite a few other 24v system tools and have thought about also using the Hart stack system for my tools (It's Blue lol)... though I love Packout for their innovations, I don't need it, and it's $$$$. Good to know these have held up to harder use than just carting it around the house. The Hart is actually one of the better thought out systems aside from Packout/Ryobi... of course they are all owned by TTI :D. Thanks again.
@@mikep2286 I now have 4 Mediums, 1 Rolling, 3 small, 2 large parts, and 6 of the mini parts 1/2 size unites.... and 1 drawer unit. These are great. A bit smaller than the "big boys" so they fit perfectly in my 18" deep Cabinets, and are are not nearly as heavy as the Kobalt, Flex, or Packout boxes. I also found out that Keter (Israel) is making these for Wally's / Hart, they make outstanding plastics. Expecting them to hold up a long time. As a side note, I don't think I'll use the small 1/2 size parts boxes... the dividers are thick. 1/2 size tackle boxes fit perfectly in the Medium size boxes... you can fit 6 in two rows of 3. Far better use of the space. I've been impressed so far, and saved a ton of coin, but YMMV. Edit/Update: Hart also just came out with 2 Bags that can attach to the top of these boxes... could be great for the Range. You could carry your EDC etc. in the bag with ammo and other small needs in one of the storage bins locked to the bottom of the bag.
I didn’t realize that Hart had a stack system. Somebody’s gotta test it, why not. If it works it works. A lot of folks don’t have easy access to anything but a Walmart so nice to see a workable offering for them- wonder how it compares to the craftsman offering/if the non-Great Value option is worth the slightly reduced side eye from other tradesmen.
From my contractor work I've learned no one cares what tools you got. As long as the job gets done. I run into a ton of people running full Ryobi, others running Milwaukee the job gets done no matter which you run. And the cheaper brands are more value on a large site where things can get stolen easily. Most people who steal are looking to get money. And the money is in the name brand items. Hart is through tti the same as Milwaukee. So knowing a reputable company makes Hart is amazing.
The socket set is from kobalt 220 socket box. I got it for about 90$ on sale back in 2019 it's hold up really well over the years. Have used it on everything including impact and it has never broke or failed me.
Hart is manufactured in the same factories as ryobi and Milwaukee. It’s their old brush tech sold to homeowners. I don’t own hart tools. A lot of ryobi and makitas. Ridged has a 4 box kit for 99 dollars
The point isn't who has "better" tools or not. The point is hart has great budget friendly tools and accessories. In my trade you see a lot of budget tools and that's because we work in very rough environments. In pits of concrete,mud,sand,feed in places it's very easy to lose tools. When I go on a site i don't have to look at a 60$ pair of kleins and worry about it. Instead I get my tools out and work. If my pliers or diag cuts break I take them straight to harbor freight and swap them for new ones with their warranty. When I go to sites customers don't say oh that's a nice Milwaukee tool backpack or that's a nice DeWalt hammer drill. They say this is where I need you to work and these are the problems I'm having. My trade tools break, get lost, or rust out. I do my job and keep myself a budget of 50$ a year for tools that need replaced if their not warrantied. I make 34.25$ an hour in my trade and it's not because of me having expensive tools it's because I have experience and knowledge. Customers never question about the tools you have they question can you do the job and are you the right person to do it.
Great review. I’ve been looking for something to organize my electronic hobby gear. This look’s perfect.
Rob, thank you for the in-depth and real-world review.

Great review. Thanks!
Been considering this as I can get the stack for 60$ rn

Good review! I’ve been battling this set up, or the ridgid just to store tools in the back of my truck
Yeah I bought it because of the price. It's still running strong, broke one of the small blue dividers with a 50 pound weights but it didn't break the Hart box so I was surprised. I got tons of those blue dividers left over from organizing my boxes. Popped a new one in and good to go.
Great, realistic review!
Its better than husky and bauer i bought it and i think its great for the price
Thanks, man 👍

I also love the blue of Hart and kobalt. Much better than the green of Ryobi 🤮 sad thing Ryobi used to be blue 😅
Wow! Thats exactly why I’m watching this video! I need this for my 2A parts & accessories!

@@Vsp712I didn't know this, I am screenshotting this for future reference. That is cool to know!
Organization for wrenches,ratchets,n sockets pretty good? Seems like the main cart would hold up with my impacts in it
Yeah if you watch the vid he explains its perfect for all those
Rolling Cart Load Capacity 100 lbs.
What socket set is that
The socket set is from kobalt 220 socket box. I got it for about 90$ on sale back in 2019 it's hold up really well over the years. Have used it on everything including impact and it has never broke or failed me.
Hahahahaha nobody wanna still it 😅😂
That is funny, and so true 😂😂 I just bought the system, and I didn't realize it had extra security for my tools 😂
The tools i keep in my trunk for breakdowns / emergency are better then ur tools. Invest in some tools dawg
