Water dirt mud and snow. As close as those wheels run to the body of that chest, in certain conditions you’ll wind up dragging that thing and the wheels will not be turning.
Really like mine but I find that the BIG PROBLEM is the orientation of the chest on the top. I mean, if you put two shelving units, you can only open one because the other one it in the same direction so you have to remove it before opening it...
@@Jim-xl4pdI’ve created reverse mounting plates. Same rigid durable plastic, barely adds height or weight to stack, and locks in. I have the plate set for sale or I can sell you the template if you have the printing equipment yourself.
That thing is actually STRONGER than described because I’m sure Milwaukee was referring to an evenly distributed load across the lid of 250 lbs. Your weight was concentrated to your feet and at one point just one foot. I have mostly DeWalt stuff but these Packout products are incredibly impressive. That’s pretty nice-like fo sho. 👍
The only Milwaukee products I own are packout. I own Dewalt everything else and I don't regret switching to Milwaukee just for the packout, it is just so much superior.
I make a video, you make a.... nah I'm just playing. I didn't make this, but where for art thou gettest that black box?! ANd whyt he heck did they make it so the boxes face the same way? I see a revision in the future, and I don't want to be an early adopter.
This box is bigger than I thought. I am still waiting for Reee oh beeeee boxes. Between the makita Gnome, your evil twin and VCG , you got it pretty rough brother. Happy to see your not backing down. Glad you showed this box.🔥👍
Yes of course I spent 250 for a tool chest , no we can not use it to keep Christmas decorations in !…. Yes I will bring it up from the basement cuz that where the xmass decorations are now lol
Would have been nice if they had made the pull out handle fit the tray. Big disappointment. The feature allowing you to stand the unit up is rather pointless as well being all the contents will simply pile up at the bottom unless you install $75 worth of deciders. Another disappointment… no dividers. 👎 For $240 ish some dividers would have been nice.
I’ll give Milwaukee credit, LOVE THE SPACE it provides, but maybe the wheels need to be a bit bigger, or be a wee bit closer to handle for better leverage, although bigger wheels might just do that. Who knows. After playing around with this, I mean doing testing and “scientific review material”, I’ve found that when loaded up inside and stacked w/ packouts……can be “clunky” and maneuvering around and thru object means….GOTTA WATCH WHAT DOING, cuz this ain’t your sub compact/compact 3-piece rolling packout; this more like driving cargo truck/bus😉 WHAT IM SUPER STOKED ABOUT, SEEING ALL THE PACKOUT MODDERS OUT THERE GO CRAZY AND HAVE FUN TURNING THIS BEAST OF A BOX INTO SOME VERY INTERESTING “TRICKS”😁
The actual MAJOR FLAW with this is that both packout slots are facing the same side, which means you cannot remove whatever is mounted in the back unless you remove the boxes on the front. If they made the slots facing opposite sides you would have access to either slot without removing the other. Better yet, if they made the slots face the front (opening side of the chest) then you could even open the boxes without them touching the other. This is a bad design and whoever came up with it doesn't actually use a packout on a daily basis.
Of the three ways to design the way things lock in, this is the worse. It does have the advantage of "strength" in that if something fails to lock in place, when you lift it won't slide off.
@@noelv1976 if they had designed it front to back they could only fit one box top instead of 1 on each side. Speaking in terms of keeping the exact same dimensions. Also If they had designed it with the 2 boxes locking in opposite direction they could not have added the sliding arm that holds the lid locked open. This is the only design where they could keep the dimensions of the box and add all the features they wanted, there was no mistake, it's well thought out. Inconveniences and all.
Hay brother??? Do you think it's to big just because the original Milwaukee packout that's half the size I know when you overload it the box becomes pretty heavy and this basically twice the size is it too heavy to load into your truck or out of your truck or even up the stairs of a job site. Also hope everything is going well just been so busy with demo jobs. A lot of work going on here in long Island. I'll ttyl brother 🇺🇸💯👍
9 inch wheels.... kinda like someone else's new boxes..... wait when you picked that up with the wheels your packout turned on its side.... kinda like that new system someone has that you can put your boxes on the wall..... hmmmm 🤔🤔🤔 haters gonna hate bro I still like Milwaukee too lol
Makita gnome going to love me in December, might be buying the 2 battery kit with free router, or ratchet, sorry trz but ridgid isn't on my bucket list 🤣🤣, do want the ryobi wall link storage system
It looks like it was set up inside for some dividers and one large divider or something else. I would like to see what that's about and how they work or maybe just a good look inside. Also, Internal and external dimensions would be useful.
You know that gnome would probably just turn himself in if you used a makita box . He saw that milwaukee box it put the fear of God in him. Put out saltlick or corn you'll catch him or vince.
I was looking at it last week,to me the major mistake is they made the locks for add on on the same direction so if you want to remove the toolbox that you put first,you have to remove the one in front,it would be so simple to put one by the back and one by the front,
I don’t think it’s a mistake. It seems very intentional. With the way the boxes lock it keeps them secured in a way that creates compression when the box is being rolled. If the back box was turned then the latches would be in tension and could be more prone to releasing or breaking.
Lol another great one TRZ. keep at it, persistence pays off, youll get him one day👍 I really like the form factor of the Milwaukee trunk. Ive got lots of Dewalt tough system boxes but my everyday tool box is actually a Craftsman model CMST24800 tool chest that I bought at Lowes because it fits in my truck bed with a bed cover. Its also bigger and can hold more tools then any of the rolling stack boxes of the stack systems.
Been pointed out numerous times on other videos too n this video its mentioned in the comments section, personally I hate reading the comments n the same thing is mentioned over n over.. But that's just me.
@@reddawgrup1779 We all do. It's just part of it. You can't expect people to read un ending streams of comments for every video befire they ever post. It's just not that serious.
I bought husky’s role around storage about 5 yrs ago for around 50 it’s bigger a lot cheaper, of course Milwaukees is nicer but not 250$ nicer! I’ve smashed my fingers a couple of times rolling it because of the handle goes all the way in, seems that Milwaukees does to! 🤔 smash that like button but not your fingers
Not a contractor or anything, but I’m probably getting one of these. I’ve been using either a soft flight bag, or a crappy rolling tote to transport my kit to and from ranges, and to work(to go out to training), but I like the idea of using this and the other packout stuff to organize all the different items I need before heading out (if anyone has ever looked at military specific gear like this, it’s just as or more expensive 😂)
The makita Gnome Section was just hilarious I think he is Just Hangry Bro Give him a snickers Bar and watch him turn into Vince yo Cuzbo we're Is My Philly Cheese Steak Cuz 🤣 @ToolReviewZone @Vcgconstruction
I love the Packout system, but I hate the branding. I'm OK with the colours, both the US version or the UK version, but the logo... I hate the Milwuakee logo. My perfect system would be a mix between the Flex and the Milwuakee system. Specially the wall/floor brackets that Flex doesn't have, together with all the accessories that Flex have and Milwuakee doesn't have as battery brackets, external level holder and tool holder (yes I know there are 3D options and aftermarket ones but for the price of the systems it should be included by standard).
You must be tall, Clint. Over the past year, I have lost a lot of weight. Not looking for a medal, I had to do it for health reasons. But I used to weigh 240. And brother, when I weighed 240...I was a LOT fatter than you are. What are you...6'5" or something?
Like a God brother 😇🙏🇺🇸 You need a little help. But unfortunately living in New York the Home Depot by me still has not even got the Milwaukee packout drawers and that's pretty sad. 👍
This new packout is nothing more than a plastic luggage bag. It is not designed right for tools. One thing you fail to mention is that if you fill that box with your expensive tools, then stand it up, all your tools will be crashing to the bottom on top of each other. And when you get to the job site, nothing will be in order. Redo your the review with tools and you'll see what I mean, then go tell Milwaukee. Unless you plan to haul around your Milwaukee uniforms and jackets in it for your next flight.
I purchased the chest and stupid thing doesn't stack with other chests missing the connector s on bottom really dropped the ball on that love Milwaukee but what the heck......
Beating on it with a broom is not abuse and doesn’t make it rugged…. 🤣🤣…. Too bad those wheels did not roll better in sand up new construction driveways The company that I do some rough in’s for doesn’t allow contractors to parkor unload in the sand driveway
I want it but the shitty little axle and hollow tires leave me wanting for 229.⁹⁹ other pack out organizers added to this and I'm a electrician have been since 97 and use noting but Milwaukee and hate yellow and black n decker junk... but just too much$ for 1 item
I don't really get this. It's a big tub. If you put a bunch of tools in there and then tilt it up to roll it, the tools will roll around all over each other, getting dinged up and their cords tangled, etc. Can somebody tell me if I'm missing something about how this is supposed to be used?
Too big and heavy. Needs two men to lift it or a ramp to wheel it. It's very awkward to lift by yourself even when empty. And the handle doesn't lock out...NOT real nice like.
You did not comment on the dumb fact. That you can not face your boxes you stack on top. To both face outwards. To access both of them. With out taken them off!?!
so that's what taking my tools ,a gnome, and i thought the guys on the job were doing it or even some tools can grow legs and walk away...good review , think I'm gonna look into one of them thar tool chests
Darn Clint...Milwaukee-I-A let you down there. That Makita gnome looks dangerous...I think your evil twin may have rigged your new packout and set you up. He needs help!
@@ToolReviewZone see that's the thing... your content is pretty damn good, WITHOUT the trickery! But hey, subscribed either way. Looking forward to picking one of these bad boys up.
Yeah I just bought mine choose for a cool ice chest my big shindig this weekend and Camping storage I love the Milwaukee. Also someone noticed before me about the dividers? Hmm
Lol thanks for the video and the laugh. Good stuff! If I had to guess I’d say your from Dayton Ohio , you just remind me of people from here. We all have a few lose screws in this town for some reason lol.
