Stanley FatMax 1-97-517 Shallow Pro Organiser

Certainly one of the best organiser cases on the market. Poly-carbonate lid, metal hinge and latches. This is not a luxury case, but is well made and good value for money. The inserts and box itself have strategically placed reinforcements in the design, ribbing on corners etc so things do not feel flimsy. Cases, stack, lock and things stay in their compartments.MADE IN ISRAEL. So refreshing to see a case like this NOT made in China.The model ending 517 appears to be the one with metal latches and weatherproof seal, unlike the 519.I would like to have twice as many inserts of half the size personally, but this depends on your usage if ten is the right amount for you.Overall nice case and recommended.UPADTE: I have owned several of these for years and they are still going fine. Unlike some other reviews I had no issues with the stickers on mine, they peeled off easily with no residue.

There's not that much difference between the Stanley FatMax organiser and those from other brands. All of them do pretty much the same job... storing items and being robust. And this one is pretty good at doing what it is supposed to do. Its generally robust, the clear plastic lid does not easily scratch, the storage capacity is adequate for the size (other capacity organisers are available in the Fat Max and other ranges) and its easy to carry. My only gripe is that the lid does not quite sit true and requires a nudge to one side in order to engage the locking catches. It might just be a one-off rather than a design flaw though, as my larger organisers are just fine.

Smashing organiser box, put bits in needed for job & for general bits you always want.Tough takes the rough stick you give it.

This organiser supersedes my previous flimsier case which has now fallen apart. All screws and plugs are now organised by size/type and I look and feel like a proper tradesman.The removable compartments make life easier - one can simply move what one needs closer to the job.Accessories like this make diy a pleasant pastime rather than a chore and the robustness means I won’t need to reorganise for a while.Special shout out for the metal latches.

Good value

This is a really well constructed storage box with heavy duty hinges and latches. The inner compartments are removable and fit really well. Only 4 stars however as it comes with a huge sticker across the lid which needs to be removed as it obscures the contents. The problem is that this leaves a sticky layer of glue on the top itself which looks and feels terrible. I bought three boxes and on the other two I used a hairdryer to soften the glue as I peeled it back. This worked really well and no glue was left behind but it shouldn’t have been necessary … very annoying.

I bought two of these shallower versions to 'piggyback' (they slot and clip together). It saves space, you get more compartments and they are easy to carry. Probably all you need for the home DIYer. I have never been so organised. The boxes are robust and well designed. I love them. Recommended!

Perfekta lådor att sortera in saker i tex rördelar.Går stapla på varandra och även koppla ihop dom. Finns två olika höjd på lådorna.Och till ett otroligt bra pris.😊

Io mi ci trovo benissimo e la cerniera in metallo è difficile da rompere al contrario di quella in plastica .

Llevo usando esta caja de herramientas desde hace casi cuatro años y puedo decir que ha sido una compra excelente. Durante todo este tiempo la he utilizado en muchas ocasiones, tanto para pequeñas reparaciones en casa como para trabajos más exigentes, y sigue como el primer día.Los cierres funcionan perfectamente, el material es resistente y aguanta muy bien el uso continuo. Además, tiene muy buena capacidad y permite mantener todas las herramientas bien organizadas, por lo que es muy fácil encontrar lo que necesitas.Después de tanto tiempo de uso, puedo decir que ha demostrado ser un producto duradero y de calidad. Si buscas una caja de herramientas resistente, práctica y que aguante el paso de los años, la recomiendo sin ninguna duda. Para mí ha sido una compra totalmente acertada.

Une valise étanche et bien conçue, parfaite pour agencer des pièces d'entretien. Je m'en sert de valise de réparation pour un catamaran, c'est parfait.

Nach mehreren vergeblichen Anläufen, habe ich hier endlich ein Kleinteilemagazin gefunden, in dem nichts durcheinander gerät, weil die einzelnen Behälter stabil sind, der Deckel absolut dicht schliesst und fest ist, so dass keine kleinen Schräubchen oder Unterlegscheiben von einem Fach ins nächste rutschen, wenn man das Teil mal hin und her trägt. Das Teil ist stabil und hochwertig verarbeitet. Erfüllt meine Erwartungen zu 100%. Daher volle 5 Sterne.Nach mehreren vergeblichen Anläufen, habe ich hier endlich ein Kleinteilemagazin gefunden, in dem nichts durcheinander gerät, weil die einzelnen Behälter stabil sind, der Deckel absolut dicht schliesst und fest ist, so dass keine kleinen Schräubchen oder Unterlegscheiben von einem Fach ins nächste rutschen, wenn man das Teil mal hin und her trägt.

Die kleine Standardpackungsgröße für Schrauben, die man als Hobby-Handwerker im Baumarkt kauft, geht da unter. Da passen tatsächlich auch die Großpackungen mit ein paar hundert Schrauben rein. Wer das nicht braucht, kommt mit dem flachen Organizer gut aus.
