DeWalt ToughSystem 1 vs 2.0 - Toolbox with Drawers and Parts Organizer

[@benmihokovich7207]

I have the 1.0 drawers. Work in the ghetto and I hated they didn’t lock. I added cam locks to each drawer works like a charm.

[@BruceAlanR]

Brilliant idea! Thanks for sharing that.

[@Mikemanzales]

Mind sharing how you did this?

[@doug667]

Very helpful comparisons, especially the dimensions. I agree with your assessment, I wish the 1.0 drawer box was still available.

[@BruceAlanR]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts! The older boxes are definitely harder to find at traditional retail these days so when I find them I pick them up. Thanks again!

[@patriciaweber9832]

[@recyclespinning9839]

NO handle on top? The bottom rolling box needs to be able to open without unlatching all the boxes on top. No brand does that . Do they ever work in the field??

[@BruceAlanR]

I agree. I think the concept of mobile toolboxes is to be able to move the tools around and not necessarily to access them. 🤣

[@recyclespinning9839]

@@BruceAlanR it's really not a problem on a big jobsite, but when your on a smaller repair or a customers apartments, unstacking them and then stacking is a chore, ..

[@Kraviken]

Thank you! I was going to get one of those. But did not know it does not fit the rack.. Saved me a lot of money and irritation! 😀👍❤️

[@BruceAlanR]

Yeah that was frustrating to learn. The way I get around it is to attach it to whatever box is at the top of the rack. You’ve got to have the clearances though.

[@duncdunc76]

Totally agree with your assessment. I do like the longer organizer cups on the 2.0 for storing longer bolts and lags that I use in my proffession. Sadly I've not been more impressed with my 2.0 boxes then my 1.0 boxes. I was able to get my 2.0 stuff at a decent discount at Rural King when they had a sale a year or so ago so I pulled the trigger to try them out instead of adding more 1.0 boxes to my system. The quick latching is nice on the 2.0 but the old system latching never bothered me that much. And for me 1.0 works just as well if not better in some situations as I have the DS carrier. So I will buy 1.0 boxes in the future if I can find them as it is certianly bound to be a better deal then buying the 2.0 system stuff.

[@BruceAlanR]

Thanks for sharing your experiences. My toughsystem 1 boxes get more use than the 2.0 boxes. May be I’ve been using them longer and I can pack them more efficiently. When I need more boxes, I usually try to find the 1.0 boxes first since they’re less expensive. I’m looking forward to Black Friday this year and curious to see if prices drop further.

[@aminjablaoui1454]

The gapnin the middle is good the milwaukee has the same thing and i like it because i put my drill bits . Thanks for your review. It was really helpful

[@BruceAlanR]

Thanks for sharing that info! Glad the video was helpful.

[@lflsremodeling]

Great video. I wish I watched it before ordering the 2.0 to add to my original boxes. I can confirm, they are NOT 100% Compatible! This makes it a huge pain in the ars when rolling up tools at the end of a long day. I wish DeWalt would have put more thought into this design.

[@BruceAlanR]

Thanks for sharing your experience. I’m going to assume you’re referring to the small parts organizer since that’s the one I have the most issue with. Another person commented they were having a compatibility issue with the drawer box, but it turned out there were some screws that weren’t tightened when it was manufactured.

[@Intoxacajun]

Good Video! They lost me when they did not make 2.0 backward compatible with 1.0. I have 1.0 and still end up using my original Rigid system because my roll and lock will not close with the handle of the Dewaly system. I getting rid of all systems and going with Milwaukee Packout.

[@BruceAlanR]

Thanks for sharing your experience! Yesterday I saw Home Depot had the 2.0 mobile tool box for $178 online and it came with a bonus small and medium box (so basically the whole mobile system) as well as a deep tool tray. I was considering getting another; however, I decided to give the Ridgid 2.0 Pro Gear a try because I like the idea of being able to roll in and mount the boxes to studs, which also allows the lids to be open. Unfortunately the handles are a bit wiry so if the big box is loaded and I’d I’m not wearing gloves it isn’t great. Not as nice as the old Ridgid boxes either. If you go packout, let me know what you think.

[@tensazero]

DeWalt got complacent on the storage systems. They had years of advantage and wasted it. Now it's small incremental changes that don't even compare to the massive amounts of competition. It's so bad that a few years ago they showed off a triple drawer 1.0 and that still hasn't seen the light of day. It's either horrible R&D, or some contract issues with Keter. Maybe both. So much potential wasted.

[@BruceAlanR]

I completely agree! I’ve recently added some of Ridgid’s Pro Gear Gen 2.0 boxes to my rig and I really like them for the price.

[@bossmanz28]

The 3 drawer you saw years ago did see the light of day but was only in the UK! Ridiculous. They even had the pic of it on those little pamphlet things that are zip tied to a box sometimes. I imagine plenty of ppl were like o thats cool and then try to find it and dont understand why they couldnt find it lol

[@BruceAlanR]

Totally makes sense. I believe they were also available in Australia.

[@bonnie.duncan]

the three drawer is now available…just google it…it JUST came out.

[@1kzrider]

Finally picked up the 2.0 box cause I couldn't find the 1.0. The did fit the 1.0 box but, was cumbersome to get fit vs 1.0 to 1.0 box. I saw some complaining one the 2.0 bottom box when opening it rolls all the morning dew or water into the main box off the lid. With this in mind I am happy to have the 1.0 box still. Thanks for the reviews. Def going to have to get that handle mod for middle of the two drawer unit.

[@BruceAlanR]

Thanks for sharing that. I've considered the handle mod, but since the boxes don't lock, I've turned them into workshop storage.

[@1kzrider]

@BruceAlanR OK, so I've been using these 2.0 drawers for a few weeks. I m already finding me accessing and using my tools so more often now. Just in my own garage, there is no need for locking. I am eyeing the 3 drawers now.

[@BruceAlanR]

@@1kzriderI’m likely to pickup the 3 drawer units as well. Since they’re not very deep I’ll likely just use them to store fasteners and bits.

[@1neleven]

I have no issues with my 2.0 boxes, organizers or drawers. Yes they could redesign them a bit more but they all have performed well for me.

[@BruceAlanR]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I picked up another 2.0 version now that the price has dropped to $99; but since they don’t lock, they still live in the shop.

[@adamfarkas7069]

Can you attach a ToughSystem 1.0 organiser onto a ToughSystem 2.0 stack properly? Are the two compatible? Thanks

[@BruceAlanR]

Yes! A 1.0 organizer will fit on top of a 2.0 stack.

[@Alkatraz415]

I dont own any DeWalt storage items but I do like watching videos and seeing the difference between systems and different perspectives. I agree DeWalt should have some way to lock the drawers. Personally, i wouldnt have an issue with seeing light from the drawer. I dont leave my stuff outside or in the back if a pickup where rain could get blown in and i wouldnt need them to be air tight. I havent seen anyone disappointed they couldnt drop a handful of screwdrivers in the gap of the bins in other videos. I dont drop handfuls of screwdrivers anywhere. The one screwdriver that you tried to position in the gap was clearly too big. I wouldn't ding DeWalt for that. I would have liked to see what it could be used for. Smaller screwdriver, masonry bits, long 1/4" bit holder for the different fasteners that could go in those bins. Last thing, I personally wouldnt be bent out of shape that there isnt a handle on the top. I probably wouldnt carry that in one hand and something else in the other, or two at the same time if they were loaded up with tools. With the Milwaukee, Rigid, and Toughbuilt containers I have, I take them out of a vehicle and set them on a cart or the base part of the system and wheel it around to wherever it needs to go. Picking it up with two hands to put it on a cart isnt a big deal but i could see needing the handle on top if I needed to walk somewhere with it and carry another tool bag, 5 gal bucket, or something.

[@BruceAlanR]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Regarding the handle on top, I think I’ve just gotten used to having it there and it makes it easy to carry two boxes at the same time.

[@jlynchtx]

At 2:24 in the video you show how the 2 drawer unit can tilt forward when mounted to the workshop mount. It looks like that’s the 1.0 unit in the video shot (which I also have). Does the 2.0 still tilt forward when the top drawer is open? I was hoping the wider handle might stop that.

[@BruceAlanR]

Great question and observation. Unfortunately both my 1.0 and 2.0 drawer boxes tilt forward unless there’s a box above.

[@FelipeDaSilva-yk5te]

Some extension bits would work great in the middle. Like something you’d use for a fastener that goes in the fastener box.

[@BruceAlanR]

That’s a great idea! I’ll have to try that.

[@iamcondescending]

I kinda like the fact there's a middle space in the 2.0 organizer. I'm looking for a new box to throw my socket set into since the case it came in is currently being held together by a stretchy belt. That middle spot would fit my drivers and extensions perfectly

[@BruceAlanR]

Yeah, I’ve gotten used to the space in the middle. For my electrical stuff, I now use the middle space for premade pigtails and a spare multibit screwdriver.

[@matthewluttrell9413]

When i bought my 2.0 drawers, if they were 1.0, I wouldn't have bought them. I don't actually have the whole set with wheels and whatnot, i just got two of the drawer boxes because after a lot of running out of the store and measuring i realized they would fit perfectly in the toolbox on my truck (a 2'x2'x4’ jobsite style box). If they had had the center mounting hardware the 1.0 boxes have i wouldn't have gotten them. In the box on my truck i just had to pull out the backpack and other tool bag in front of them and the drawers could open. And the drawers provide way better organization than the milk crates i was using beforehand 😅 Somewhat recently i got the duffle style bag, two of the 2.0 organizers, and the deep compact half box. I like the cups and the long slit in the middle actually holds some miscellaneous bits in the organizers. Side note, height wise the cups fit perfectly in the drawers and two of the double cups live permanently there. The deep half box might not have been the best call because i found that all the tools i wanted to put in there couldn't fit by a c-hair, but I just load it with specific tools per job. I'll probably be getting more of the normal boxes in the future but those would be too keep in the shop and take out on a job per job bases. I'll probably wait until i see a deal i can't pass up on

[@BruceAlanR]

Thanks for sharing that info. I thought about getting the deep half box, but often I just throw tools I need into a 5 gallon bucket. 🤣

[@danielkirk2306]

Why did they get rid of the damn top handle? My other 1.0 boxes have top handles and the do hickey thing. Smh

[@BruceAlanR]

There are mods you can do to add top handles to the 2.0 boxes, but it’s ridiculous to have to do that for the price. Big oversight by DeWalt.

[@jm2_productions938]

Where do you purchase the spacers for the 2.0 boxes?

[@BruceAlanR]

Dewalt doesn’t sell spacers for the drawers or even most of their boxes. You can make them though. The only box I’ve seen that comes with spacers is the 15.25” compact deep tool box (half box).

[@jm2_productions938]

@ I actually found them on Etsy. They have some really good accessories for these DEWALT bins.

[@juanaguirre766]

I agree I love the first boxes because of the mobile carrier i wish Dewalt upgraded its latches but maybe in the future good review

[@BruceAlanR]

Glad you enjoyed the video. I recently picked up the 3 drawer Toughsystem 2.0 box so perhaps I’ll review it. The drawers of the 3 drawer box are so shallow it’s really only good for boxes of fasteners, blades, chisels, or dremel accessories. Power tools don’t even fit in it. 🤣

[@groovy_jameshurt3]

🤔 Does the 4 port fast charger fit seemlessly on top of the drawers, and lock in place? If so, that's all I need 2 hear to go get these! Thanks for the vid!

[@BruceAlanR]

Yes. It’s the power station that requires a 1.0 box.

[@bossmanz28]

No the 4 port charger doesnt just fit the 2.0 box. It can be made to fit though grinding and shaving the bottom of the feet. Works like charm after that. Also did the same thing to the powerstation but that definitely required more shaving and all but 100% worth it. Its underneath. Who cares it works great and you dont even notice

[@bossmanz28]

​@@BruceAlanR 4 port charger an issue too but both units can modded with grinding and shaving of the feet

[@BruceAlanR]

Thank you for clearing that up. My buddy has a 4 port charger attached to the 2.0 boxes, but I didn't think to ask if he did a mod. He's pretty savvy so it's likely he did. Thanks again!

I bought two new 2.0 2-Drawer Boxes and planned to stack a 1.0 small box on top, but unfortunately it will not click on both sides. Only one side will click. It seems the 2.0 is slightly too wide.

[@BruceAlanR]

Thanks for sharing that. The 1.0 box doesn’t clip into either of the 2.0 drawer boxes? I can’t say I’ve experienced that other than if I really max out a box and it bulges in which case it doesn’t want to clip in easily.

[@ALTONBENALLY]

@@BruceAlanR Actually, I only tried clipping the 1.0 on top of one of the 2.0 boxes. I'll try both and will update.

I almost bought these Dewalt because of the drawers. I noticed the handles of the drawers on the side instead of the top handle, you use your back too much. So, I'm just keeping my Rigid system. I actually ordered another clearance rolling toolbox. They are pretty affordable. $59 bucks !!

[@BruceAlanR]

I really like the new Ridgid Pro Gear 2.0 boxes. I really like the simple mounting system and the fact that the wheels come off the large rolling toolbox. They Ridgid stuff is also less expensive and seem equally as durable.

Getting rid of the top handle is bad

[@BruceAlanR]

[@Slowhand871]

I buy Dewalt tools mostly because they are owned by an American company vs Milwaukee but Milwaukee pack out is far superior and I have to go with that.

[@BruceAlanR]

Thanks for sharing your experience. Packout does have some nice features and organization although I do find it bulky. Since I was already deep into DeWalt I stuck with it, but other companies are catching up and even surpassing DeWalt with storage options.

With the organizers the 2.0 has bigger cups for the smaller ones then the 1.0. The 1.0 cups are hard to dig your fingers when the bin isnt full. The weird middle storage packout has as well so thats prolly why. The issue with the 2.0 not going into the arms irritated me too but with my setup its doable for me as the drawers that it sits on for me stay in the truck anyway and not mobile into the job. If you take a multi tool and you cut that bump out on the arms a 1/4" the organizer will fit how you need. Now the 2.0 drawer it irritates me that the box is identical to the 1.0 except for the latches and half box capability. The drawers should have been made deeper and an overall taller box to match packout drawer size. I dont think you can buy the 1.0 anymore from what ive seen but correct me if im wrong 2 DIFFERENT boxes jus makes too much sense for the end user so dewalt said screw you. I still needed them so i got them of course.

[@BruceAlanR]

Great info so thanks for sharing all that. Does seem lazy of DeWalt to make so few improvements to the box with drawers. I’ve seen a few 1.0 drawers online, but they’re definitely hard to come by… and the price has gone up. I needed more drawers too and when I went to HD and they had the 2.0, I was like just grab it and be done with it. I honestly hate shopping.

I agree Flex looks really good. I also have to commend Ridgid’s new 2.0 boxes, which I also have. They’e rugged and considerably less expensive than most systems, but they don’t have a drawer box… yet! I was actually at my local Home Depot and saw some guy checking out the DeWalt 2.0 set and I was like, “Have you tried these Ridgid boxes?” and then I started showing him how the wheels can be removed from the large tool box (unlike DeWalt), how they have an easy wall mount system that comes with each box, and all the included extras (inside storage cases, dividers). The guy was like, “Wow! They’re really nice and so much cheaper!” He ended up buying the whole set. I walked out of the store going, “OMG, what have I done! Did I really just discourage someone from buying DeWalt? What’s happening to me?” Ha!
