You got a hell of a deal at that price! I worked for Lowes for 5 years.. a lot of those days of huge clearance discounts is gone. Other than on sale items, you’re pretty much looking at 10% off.

The rubber feet on the flex is amazing. My idiot helpers never would consider rolling my boxes on client floors instead of sliding it. Thanks for making that idiot proof, Flex!

They are so similar but the spring on the flex and the tires are awesome. I like flex better for the little things that are different

[OwenRivas-jw]

Excellent review. The tires and spring are game changer.

One thing nobody mentioned is the difficulty of the packout.

WHEN the packout is loaded up “normal weight and use” the cleats want to catch on the front cleats making it difficult to lock them together.
If they were smart the cleats towards the front should be a smaller size to prevent this.

FLEX and Dewalt all you have to do is drop the container on top and it locks.
Milwaukee is stuck though because if they changed the cleats everything prior would not work.

$23 for the large box is a killer deal. Wonder if they are being discontinued.
Flex boxes are made in China.

Jeez, I need to go to Lowe's once in a while

[MAGAMAN]

Now compare the compartments that have drawers from the two companies.

Also, load both of them up with tools and push them down stairs, or out of the back of a truck and see which holds up better.

Does the Milwaukee tray fit in the Flex box?

I recently changed my DWST08204 (Dewalt DS400 XL) to the big Flex box (shown in your video) and the Flex has A LOT more storage space. Definitely worth the money, the only thing I wish it had was 2 trays, which is why I'm asking if the Milwaukee fits? (I can get those online)

Thanks!

So if you had that stackpack stacked tight next to each other in a van or something that’s gonna be pretty difficult to get your hand in there a pain to say the least. And because there’s only two contact points how would you do wall mounts? I Like some of the features on the flex but I completely disagree with you on the locking mechanism that was the dealbreaker for me only two contact points and despite what you say it really is a two hand operation I was playing around with them in Lowe’s and was kind of disappointed.

[EVM_ENT]

I’m guessing I have the newer packing since my tires have rubber with plastic

[kfs]

Technically the blackout wheel’s also use rubber, it’s just a high durometer rubber.

[johnjohnson]

You got lucky somebody got stupid at Lowe’s pricing that. Happens with the computer they use don’t ever question it. They will check and change the price.

@ultimatetoolreviews do u think the future in powertools is pouch cell batteries or these 36v 40v higher capacity battery platforms?

[raymondfrenette]

It should show how flimsy the Pack Out top lid is vs. the rigid Flex lid. I have the Flex system which is more rugged.

[VenusTheFrenchie]

I’ve decided between flex and Milwaukee and compared both flex is a better material overall compared to the Milwaukee. Packout just feels cheap. The wheels are trash on there as well.

[efektmurowany]

It won’t be fine when you put in the waterpool, don’t ask how i know 😅😅

[KKJazz]

What the shit are those deals, insane

[ryannahodil]

Lowes was quick to ditch these and remove them from stores! Everyone around me maybe carried them for 2 months

[toneysunny]

Make sure there NOTHING on the side of the Flex stack to unlock and take the box out.. MAJOR FAULT!
