I want to acknowledge and congratulate you on the high quality of this video. It is obvious you spent a LOT OF TIME filming & editing to produce this episode! “ Keep on Keeping on!” Tim in northern TN
So thorough. Thank you! Subscribed. A few months ago, I put together a spreadsheet attempting to compare some of these. I calculated the space efficiency, weight efficiency, and in^3 per dollar. Systainers were quite a lot more efficient. Much lighter. Of course, they're also not strong enough to climb on, so that makes sense. My favorites right now are the half-size full thickness Packout, and the mini-Systainer.
Im all in on Modbox. Im a commercial electrican whos been using modbox since its inception. If your looking to stand out from the sea of Red with packout Its been a great platform with huge potential for more in the future. I have nothing but good things to say about modbox. Its held up quite well and its in the same price range as milwuakee. The modbox does have some niche things that are great for the electrican which is why I went with it in the first place. In all honesty though; if you use milwuakee tools It only makes sense to stay in there platform. Im in a odd spot where I have milwaukee power tools but in the modbox platform. Lucky guys like Jake make stuff that adapt to things. ESTY also has DIY'rs who are also making some qualiuty items for both platforms.
I used to have all dewalt power tools and ToughSystem 1.0 and later 2.0 boxes. Now I’ve got tons of Dewalt 20v/60v tools, a decent lineup of milwaukee M12 tools, and a whole setup of Flex StackPack boxes.
Toughbuilt.....can barely be found at Lowe's. It's sad what's happening. Lowe's is so busy schlepping Klein, Craftsman, Kobalt, Flex, that there is no room for Toughbuilt products.
I had high hopes for Toughbuilt but it sucks. Let me explain. They flubbed the design and launch of the storage system and they have terrible logistics. Their miter saw stand has been out of stock everywhere for 3 flippin years! StackTech is not modularly designed. They have tray inserts that are the exact same size but are actually slightly different in different boxes, you can't swap them because of very small detail changes. That's stupid! Why would you design TWO insert trays that are the same dimensions? It is like they didn't make any unified design standards, and handed different teams instructions to design each box. Then there was the oversight in being able to stack whole trays on top of two half-sized boxes. That was a big fail they are having to retcon with newer half box designs. Toughbuilt has all the traits of a Chinese company pretending to be an American company. I'm not saying they are, but the the design fails, logistics fails, huge oversights make them really incompetent and not worth your money. Personally, I am not a traveler and I don't use modular storage boxes. For maximum usefulness if you have a lot of money, Packout wins hands down. The ecosystem is the biggest and Milwaukee has more higher IQ users that make all kinds of aftermarket accessories than other brands.
I strongly disagree. Stack tech is far away the best most durable boxes you can get and I hope that Lowe’s reconsiders and Allgates that shelf space to the far superior product tough built provides.
🤨 I know what you’re saying , @ElectroAtletico … But what I have found at my local Lowe’s stores is , that if you CANNOT find it out there on the main floor , You MUST GO INTO THE TALL AISLES AND “ LOOK UP “ At the Tops of the “ STOCK SHELVES “ where the store has All if the Extra Inventory , that they draw from , when Stock on the sales floor , runs low , or runs Out , then they draw from That Stock to Re-Stock the Main Floor Shelves !! 😃🤷🏽 … That’s How , I found a couple of TOUGHBUILT BOXES that I had been searching for !!!! …. 🤭🫵🏽 So , the next time y’all go shopping in any Hardware or Lawn and Gardening store , “ ALWAYS LOOK UP AT THE TOPS OF THE SHELVES , BRUH !!! If it ain’t on the floor , it’s hanging out up in the air , there !!! 👍🏽😃… 👋🏽👨🏽🦳😁 Happy Hunting !!! 👋🏽👨🏽🦳🇺🇸
Totally sweet informed video. I watched every second. I would like to get some insert organizer for the Ridgid system if you ever get to build them. I realy like the Ridgid. I've had some for 7 trouble free years. They have been abused. Left in harsh weather, stood on constantly, dropped, stuff falling on them and carrying way more than they are "rated" for.
Klein has really been using their last mover advantage well. It seems like they have taken the big name (Packout) and made tons of little improvements everywhere. Something like including all the right dividers from the start means they are a spectacular value compared to Packout for cleartop boxes too.
Hey I love your content and appreciate the work you do. For the ridgid miniboxes, forgive me if I blanked out if you mentioned this, but in addition to hanging the organizers against a wall, those mounts are actually what go on the mystery side holes that are found on the new 2.0 boxes. This way, you can hang the organizers on the sides of your cart and are still able to open the top box. I am currently Ridgid, but the new Klein offerings seem VERY generous. Waiting to see what their option to a dolly or rolling cart alternative but I think they are going to give packout a run for their money. Their only downside imo, is the color orange is way to prominent. Thanks again, looking forward to more videos
I think the Tough System 1.0 is a superior organizer in terms of feature set because of the compatibility with the DS Carrier and Wall/Van racking systems. It also doesn't have a permanent divider in the middle. DeWALT at the very least could have done what they did with the Tough System radio 2.0. It fits the side brackets but doesn't include anything to lock in. The compatibility of the 2.0 with the half width organizers is nice to have though. Looks like 2.0 still suffers from the alignment issues 1.0 had on the bins. I was super impressed with Packout. The auto alignment was incredible. Systainers are decent on compatibility in my opinion. There are a few exclusions but for the most part all 3 generations of the regular size fit together. The SYS3 organizers are also a big upgrade over their previous organizers. Many sizes of bins and a grid system to increase placement options of the bins.
Harbor Freight Bauer is pretty solid if you dont need all the options, think there is 5 sizes including the bottom rolling tub, and goes on sale during black friday and Bauer coupons throughout the year.
Possibly, but just like tools not every brand makes every type of box you may want/need for organization. Having the right tool even if it comes with a new battery platform is worth it to me and I feel the same about tool/hardware organization. Bottom line, none of the systems are perfect so the best solution may be to have a few brands of boxes and a few brands of battery platforms
@@JakeWeihe yeah but if you want everything to lock together......I looked at the toughbuilt at lowes today, nice stuff. Had to keep telling myself "walk away walk away" :)
Great video and information. But youve made my decisions more difficult 😂 dewalt 2.0 or toughbuilt. Im torn! Lol 😅 i have dewalt tools and batteries. Theyve got lots of boxes and accessories, and out of ocd id like to stay with just one brand. Toughbuilt is similar and seems to be moving in the same direction. But the ease of connection and disconnection is great. They've also got a sweet cooler and halfsize cooler that connect to the stack just like the boxes.
Just because I happened to see this first, I'll say this about systainers . I like the idea of building specific powertool kits. when I grab that box, I know I have the powertool & everything that goes with it without doubling up because the box is big . I've been using them better than 10 years I've even bought different color TLOCs for different tool brands kaisen foam inserts and custom labels. The one reason I'm moving out of them and into a modular toolbox system is because they're just too fragile, no matter how careful you are with them..
Correct me if I am wrong but the Klein mod box is clearly made from packout, they had a packout thought about its flaws and fixed nearly all of them and made it slightly larger. Kudos to them! I honestly really was sold on toughbuilt, but they cannot seem to get stock for hardly anything. The only thing holding me back from Klein is well it’s orange, it’s for sure harder to stack than stack tech, and it doesn’t have a work top. The work top for me is a big deal…. Going to buy in about a month, any ideas on what I should buy? I have went to Lowe’s to check them out multiple times now.
At 24 minutes, you mention a special features video. I can't find the video you mean, can you point it out? I am very interested in getting a drawer with wheels, like you show with the rigid.
Your video are wonderfully informative and therefore, helpful. If you have any influence with these companies, would you please submit a request for a line that features white or light colored boxes with clear tops for artists, quilters and various other hobbyists who would find it beneficial to have a box which helps easily visualize the colors of the items in the box.
Mod box to me is a real competitor to Milwaukee if they continue to offer more. Other prices seem to be edging out Milwaukee. The only thing hurting them to me is Lowe’s. They just don’t have the advertising and sales like HD does.
I will be going with the Klein Mod Box components. I have that organizer, a Mod Box Tool pouch and 3 tool sets and flip sockets sets. A great video. Your attention to detail about each system was on point. I'm subscribed and keep up the good work. 😊
Amazing video but maybe an idea to make shorter versions where you compile all the tests of each brand into their own video and make a play list. That way people can focus on the brands they are primarily interested in. Let’s say I am only interested in the packout and the toughsystem or the packout and the stacktech
you miss the most important test of all, real life warranty! How easy it is to get a replacement for real, the customer service of the manufacturer! The store customer service will vary greatly.
@@JakeWeihe i’m interested to know if any brand of boxes can be interchanged and connected or stacked on top of another brands boxes? Tim in northern TN
How do we know Lowes isnt trying to stock toughbuilt? They are tanking in stock and probably having a hard time meeting production demands. Lowes wants to sell stuff, why would they not be buying these unless there’s supply chain issues?
I wish the mod box felt more sturdy. I was not impressed with the quality of them. And I was ready to sell my packout boxes to buy all modboxes, but that won’t happen anymore!
@@JakeWeihe when I picked them up and was handling them it felt way to flimsy from what I was expecting from Klein. It just doesn’t feel like good quality either.
From this I gather that Pack Out and Mod Box are the clear winners across the board. Stack Pack and Stack Tech for their prices are possibly the worst.
That was a very long sit but omg thank you saved my b*tt with the shake test. I use thoughsystem 2.0 and I am looking for a undeep organizer to hold all my wire ferrils . Toughsystem only has the deeps ones so I was looking at the undeep packout boxes or the undeep stacktech boxes. Seeing what happened with the nuts in the stacktech I don’t want to know what would happen if you carry it full of ferrils. Now my remaining question is. Do you maybe know or have an idea on how to store ferrils in undeep trays in the toughsystem half box. Or should I buy the undeep packout organizer as the uglyduck in my collection.
After watching a bunch of your videos, I ended up getting stacktech after returning a Milwaukee packout. You are more likely to be robbed in transit and job sites with the Milwaukee setup as it is so flashy.
My wife suggested if I invest in the Mod Box perhaps get it wrapped in black vinyl 🤔 like cars. Anyone else wrap or paint their systems? That orange is too bright for my beeds. I have to go on location and shoot television so bright orange stands out.
If it was only organizers then I might be persuaded on Klein. Their 11 in 1 screwdriver is a freakin legend and I use a lot of their hand tools. But investing in an entire system then it's a hard pass. The options and customization Milwaukee has simply can't be beat. And yeah they are downright eyecandy
@@JakeWeihe I had to google to see it lol. That would have been amazing at my last job. Really enjoyed the video btw and after I saw this one I noticed you had a bunch of other modular vids. For me, the ONE thing I didn't know I needed was the shopvac. I cannot explain how many times I have used it and thought "what did I do without this?" Well I had to go to the truck or to the shop to get the rigid and lug it back and look for a working outlet...etc. FML I got work in 4 hours and I'm looking at packouts 😆
Holy shit @ the shaking test, and Flex StackTech FAILED HARD. What's the point of buying a clear organizer that stuff falls out of? No shot, no thank you Flex!!! Same with the alignment test. Fuck these boxes that won't close unless you manually position the containers in the perfect position. So bad.
The stacktech box is too big & too deep. The narrow one (if you could find it) appears too shallow. I returned my 1 week old Flex boxes hot & heavy for Stacktech but all the stuff you really want is unobtainable if the 2nd wave is as bad as the first , im not sure i have 2yrs for Stacktech to get up too speed..
Let’s all be real here, Milwaukee will and always will be the top winner when it comes to hand tools, power tools, and modular stackable boxes. I’ve had my packout system for 7 years not and have not had one problem. (Hvac tech)
Do I like Packout? Yes. But saying blanket statements like that is foolish. “Always and never are two words you should always remember never to use.” -Wendell Johnson
The flex handle moves in the way so that it secures the locking mechanism more. It's actually a better system even if it slightly takes 2 seconds more to handle.... get it handle 😂😂😂
@ghostf779 durability? Flex’s side latches are one of the most damage prone designs. I’ve seen many pictures of broken latches and they are annoying to replace if you can even get a replacement from flex since the warranty is one year.
@@JakeWeihe I guess we'll just have to disagree 🤷♂️. I personally just like Flex now. Use to be a Milwaukee guy, but switched over and am happy. Only tool I've complained about is the oscillating multi tool... and that's due to their blades. But I do like their boxes.
this is honestly better than going to the store and looking at them in person
Thanks 👍
Amen!!
Especially considering they’re not all at the same store chain so you couldn’t do a side by side in person anyways.

@@JakeWeihe Ah I saw it first here, it is mounted with a slight change to the screw position.

@@JakeWeihe I guess we'll just have to disagree 🤷♂️. I personally just like Flex now. Use to be a Milwaukee guy, but switched over and am happy. Only tool I've complained about is the oscillating multi tool... and that's due to their blades. But I do like their boxes.
Why is the UK so far behind on all this stuff!? 😅🥲🥲🥲🥲
Probably because America is the king of consumerism 😂
