I’m looking forward to the In-depth analysis as your reviews are always extensive and really dig into the details of the various manufacturers products!!

Ive got seven or eight modboxs currently. With my line of work it's made organizing easier and I can find what I need quickly and as an added bonus a workbench

It looks pretty good, they just made one fatal flaw like the rest of the rolling tool boxes: it isn’t drawers. Can’t they see that the best feature is that we don’t have to unstack and stack when we want something from the bottom? I mean even if it was one giant drawer it would be fine. Tool companies missed the target again🤦‍♂️

For you who say this box sucks or is bad . This mod box is made electricians hint the slot on the of the box for pipe. An the storage on the back for fish rods an pipe bender. I think it’s awesome!

Great review. As an electrician these are pretty nice. But I own lots of Packout and I still think they are a better system. Sure Klein has a few things that are better but overall they didn't do enough research and development. It's great to see another competitor, this will keep Milwaukee from slacking on innovating.

Another great packout video from Jake. Keep em coming.. Awesome information

[aMiraculousValence_OeOeO]

Yes. Please do make accessories for the ModBox.
Looking forward to a look at how/whether water is channeled away from the interior when opened after a rain.

Mod box had 2 years to review Packout and others and read the feedback on them. It looks like they got it right. It’s just not sold in big box stores yet.

Interesting video. The mod box has the same internal design flaws as every other box out there. No side handles is a big thing. The 4 feet sticking out on the bottom, I don’t feel is as good as the packouts A removable handle is a nice feature though. Live confidently and peacefully

For me the best thing about these rolling toolbox systems is weather proof transport of tools to and from job sites. Almost bought the version with drawers until I thought about how unfortunate it would be to get caught in a storm and have the drawers fill with water.

Cool 😎 Looking forward to see what you come up with… I went from the DeWalt Tough System 2.0 to my Klein Mod Box, and these are great.

[SpencerGarris]

Hell yeah!!! I been waiting for this episode!!!

[HexaDecimus]

The removable handle without having to mod it is the feature i need to get it.

[eastcoasteric]

I’ve used the pack out system since it came out - earlier this year I had my entire rig stolen at night, so I’ve been looking at replacing it lately…and I gotta say, the Klein has the features I wish Packout did.
But it’s the color that trips me up big time. There is just something about bright orange that feels cheap to me.

[jazzmonk]

Nice video review, but most of us have already spent a fortune in Packout, accessories, and mods to even think about another modular system.

[justinsherriff]

good run down on the modbox. I was thinking about getting the klein. But not having good handles on the side is a big negative for me. Too bad Ridgit does not have more to pick from like drawers and half sized.

[Synic]

Great review…. Exactly what i was looking for.

[ramit]

Yes please make adapters I have a veto pro bag, that a want to be able to use on this mod box

[richt]

I got the rigid set when it first came out years again. Im already invested in those. Too late to switch over now

[duncdunc]

Well ill say one thing for this Packout copy. I like the location of the latches for removing the telescoping handle . Now if a manufacturer would just try a little harder and just make it so the telescoping handle can retract to the same height as the box itself so every person putting their box in a truck with a tonneau cover 9:05 doesnt have to remove the dang handle. Other then that though I dont see any advantage over the Packout since its priced similarly. Heck I quit using my Dewalt Tough system rolling box because I cant fit it in my truck bed with a security bed cover. I now use a Craftsman 29" roling tool box Model #CMST24800 that fits in my truck bed with a cover on it and Ive made an attachment modification to the top so I can securely attach my other Dewalt Tough system boxes to it. Other then that if I need to transport a lot of my Dewalt boxes I use my DS Carrier as I can load the boxes I need and can attach the rolling box even though ive removed the handle and transport it that way. But the Carrier does take up a lot of room in my tool packed truck bed so I only use it when on big jobs when I need to transport many boxes.
