Milwaukee NEW structured packout backpack. Does it SUCK?

[@malakian1988]

Great review sir! I had the same problem with a Velocity Pro Gear backpack and believe that no backpack of this design is a space saver. Which is a damn shame of course as they look pretty damn good and are very sturdy. I hope you have a lot of fun with it and that it gets a bit softer and wider.

Imma 11 year HVAC tech and my klein bag has had it. I dont wanna spend 400 on a veto when imma waukee nerd anyway and want a better tool bag. This would work well for me as i use a backpack style too. I do commercial work as well so back pack style is far superior in that specifically

Don’t buy from Acme tools if you want to return an item. They don’t pay for return shipping. $65 to return this back and who knows what they will charge for restocking fee.

Looks alright. Seems like Milwaukee is trying to copy everyone lately. A lot of their new electrical tools look like exact copies of Klein. Now their backpacks look like a failed attempt at a Veto

[@theordinaryseaman]

Yea. I’m in the process of returning it this week before my 30 days is up. After 2 days of using it. It was not very practical.

What were the pros and cons of the backpack in your opinion

[@theordinaryseaman]

I could see it working out for a person that just does electrician or hvac repairs. Where they don’t need a lot of tools and use the same tools everyday. But I kind of do it all. And there is not enough space. I think it’s to compact. I think it’s way overpriced. Can buy a cheaper bag probably that works just as well. So that why I just going back to my $40 Delwalt bag. I’m going to try the rigid open to bag on wheels next.

I realy dont like the idea that whole weight of backpack is on unsuported zipper

[@ggsdude1]

This is what's preventing me from getting this. I want the packoit integration because I attach a small compartment at the bottom of the old packout backpack to carry parts or another small power tool, but the whole no support at the rear zipper is dicey. They copied veto and I dont understand why they didn't do something like a support straps like veto does....at this point I'm leaning towards dropping money on the veto, but I just can't let the packout integration go...I'm very torn lol

Seem ok, just a Veto copycat, I would use both, put those bit cases and large bulky stuff in the open top bag.

The hell you need all that on the job site for. I can't think of any time I seen any packout on a jobsite. Its more like your home tool-bag. That tote makes more sense and you will see those on jobsites. This is what you buy when your a green thumbed apprentice. Then realize you wasted your money.

[@CustomKeyboards-y7i]

That’s funny all I see these days are packouts on job sites. Building state of the art grows, and building ground up nation wide restaurant franchises.

[@krich106]

@@CustomKeyboards-y7i Not in Texas, where high majority are running their own contractor business. How this bag is setup, is like an apprentice geeking out on his loadout. While hardened ones bring what they actually use, leave rest in vehicle. Hell I don't even use my tool bags anymore. Just tote on floor, common used tool in back pocket. Wish I did that decades ago, my back and hips would feel better.

@@CustomKeyboards-y7ifacts maybe small job sites an mom an pop construction sites but every 10 story an up or data center I have been to in the past 10years have grown from husky bags to pack out bags everywhere just wish Milwaukee listen to the job sites an not the pocket book China builders
