dewalt tough boxes

[buckley plumb]

just seen the dewalt tough system tool boxes what do others think of them looking at the ds300 as an everyday box

I prefer nice drills etc by hilti or milwarkee, they earn money for me, pretty boxes only get dirty

i leave my hilti and milwaukee drills at home, prefere my better tools now.

The box mentioned is probably an ok tool box but for 55 quid are you having a laf? It is a plastic box to put tools in. For 55 quid i'd want a bj thrown in.
Another thing. Stackable!? If i stacked my box on top of anything else i'd need a sack barrow to move it.
Padlock eye! Give me a break. A swift kick and the top os off the box with the padlock hanging from one side so a lot of use that is.
It is however good marketing which seems to work given the amount of salivating over it :lol:

for a number of reasons i mainly use my new dewalt stuff, performance, price, comfort, etc..... etc.....

i like my milwaukee stuff but its only used for heavy use jobs now, hilti are great for one off tools but offer a poor range of products and batts are too expensive for me.

the good thing is in recent years the competition between power tool companies has been to our benifit, you cant really go wrong with most of the stuff the main companies produce.
