TOUGHBUILT STACKTECH 1 Drawer Close Look plus BONUS StackTech D30-1

[@peterdement]

We are waiting to see the real solution: The Rolling Drawer Box. This will eliminate the need to unstack to gain full access to the bottom storage .

[@ggrimm79]

Or an entire light toolbox tower with drawers and attachable or foldable handles to lean the box back down ramps or up steps, lockable.

[@loucifer4205]

Been asking for that for years

[@afbigfish1]

its coming this summer and is on their website

What all the storage systems need imo is to have the big rolling box be a front opening cabinet or giant drawer that is still weather resistant. That would be the best all around bottom box imo.

[@ToughBuilt]

Large Rolling Drawer Box is coming this Spring/Summer 2024 season!

[@TechMadeEzy]

@ToughBuilt this is GREAT news, I definitely missed that when I reviewed your online catalog. Thanks for mentioning it 👍🏼 Possibly send me it and other products for review would be greatly appreciated

[@duncdunc76]

@ToughBuilt Nice! I look forward to checking it out when it arrives at Lowes. Ive checked out the current released items and they are impressive. But right now aside from your great latching system, none of your current items do anything overly special that would intise me to switch from my current Dewalt boxes. However the lower large drawer box and some of the other future offerings like the 2 dolly systems have me very intrigued. As those would certianly beat my tough system DS Carrier for box transportation imo. And as a professional in the construction trade being able to transport my boxes over rough terrain efficiently is highly desirable.

[@redhoward11]

@@ToughBuilt that's awesome news, definitely a game changer!

[@TechMadeEzy]

@redhoward11 I agree the only sad part is this company is very poor. I’m hoping they’re gonna be around in the next year or two.

[@vinnyivanov2906]

I believe milwaukee had to make a locking drawer system because the drawers dont latch, they have a friction ring that grabs it, but with enough weight in the drawers it can come flying out.

[@a.i.gdallas3581]

Mines always open when I drive and it drives me crazy

[@twistedhillbilly6157]

Milwaukee Packout drawers?? Not the case with mine..

[@tundrav84wd]

I almost bought the Toughbuilt system, but not being able to lock the drawers was a deal breaker. Funny thing is you can lock most other units of theirs, but not the ones with slide out drawers. Went with the Milwaukee and didn't look back.

[@pg13ish93]

I have the 3 drawer packout and I have cleats I bought from Amazon. I might buy this tough build and attach it to my packout with the cleats I have

[@ggrimm79]

These toughbuilt drawer boxes seem to stack and unstack much easier than the Packouts.

[@TechMadeEzy]

Definitely

[@andrewmunczenski3632]

was able to order one this week.

[@efromhb]

I somehow got an order for two of the single drawers online at Lowe's. Should arrive tomorrow. Stacktech is addictive.

[@TechMadeEzy]

Wow you found them? Nice!!

[@bryanphelpsbuildstudio]

You should have shown the slides and the bearings you also could have discussed the ease of taking the drawer out of the shelf and replacing it

[@TechMadeEzy]

Good point

[@kevinbryer2425]

This is probably my favorite component thus far, because a single drawer can go so many places that a taller one cannot. I can see them being used in work benches and desks. The only downside is the lack of a native locking mechanism. But I'm sure a first or third party option with be forthcoming.

[@slapjack2000]

the dewalt large drawers didn't have any dividers... bummer.

[@TechMadeEzy]

I really didn’t mention that but that’s a good catch

[@slapjack2000]

unfortunately i didnt catch it ether....until i got home with my Dewalt purchase. Trying to decide if i want to switch to toughbuilt because of this.😮‍💨

[@GmoneyX112]

I did see a video of ToughBuilt having a locking system but I can't remember if it's by ToughBuilt or someone made them with a 3D printer

[@TechMadeEzy]

Thanks

[@rachelhughes8951]

Are the drawers also water proof?

[@TechMadeEzy]

To my knowledge they have the same weather rating

[@andrewkerr659]

Lowe's website says not waterproof

[@duncdunc76]

One thing to remember about the Dewalt drawers is that they are the only ones that have weather resistance due to their gaskets around the drawer. I know most people dont need this feature but it does keep true to the functional design of the weather resistance of the storage system. And that is why I bought my the Dewalt TS 1.0 in the first place. I do like the Tough Built system, and if I was going to upgrade from my Dewalt system I would consider the Tough Built system for its latching tech and color scheme. The Milwaukee Packout is still probably king for its vast offerings but I can stomach the red or the price really. Hoping that once the Tough Built system is out with most of its offerings in a year or so that its price structure will settle in at a more value oriented price point then Milwaukee. Not holding my breath though lol.

[@TechMadeEzy]

Hopefully more of the TOUGHBUILT line up will be available soon

[@ggrimm79]

My tough system 1.0 drawers were a frustrating pain in the butt. They could hardly take any weight before sagging, and the plastic parts came apart, making the drawers even harder to open and close. Ugh. The 2.0 didn't seem very tough either.

[@duncdunc76]

@ggrimm79 Ya the version 1.0 drawers did have considerable issues. The 2.0 drawers are a good bit better. Still not perfect but they are weather resistant unlike any other drawers which was the point I was making. Always tradeoffs for whatever system you are choosing. One of my main criteria for a system was weather resistance. That is why I went with the Dewalt Toughsystem 1.0. And I got it before the Milwaukee packout was even available. Today if I was to pick a system it would probably be the Toughbuilt system.

[@ggrimm79]

@@duncdunc76 Makes sense.

[@83neffline]

O.k where did you find it?

[@TechMadeEzy]

Just search Lowe’s, change locations and maybe one local to you has some Lowe’s item # 5489991

[@83neffline]

@@TechMadeEzy thanks

[@TechMadeEzy]

Glad to help! Let me know if you get one

[@tbareham6241]

excellent video, thank you

[@TechMadeEzy]

Thanks

[@birdoffire9]

I love your detailed review.

[@TechMadeEzy]

Thanks

[@anivmusic]

DeWalt is the winner. No bulk And weight. Cheaper too. The depth is best and easy to carry. The yellow sealed gaskets are nice. But I love the look and simplicity of the toughbuilt. It’s 8 inches in height and you only have 1/4” more height on the drawer than one of dewalts. What we need is DeWalt to make a one drawer the height of the 2 drawer and 3 drawer system.

[@Frank2023_-_-]

As always👍👍

[@TechMadeEzy]

Thanks to you, Frank you become a big supporter and I really appreciate that

[@MrWilliewonka69]

Any idea when this system is gonna be released in canada ?

[@TechMadeEzy]

They are working on it, it’s hopeful but no exact date yet

[@bstraw53]

They need a base with wheels that is a front drawer instead of top lid. Impossible to get in base without removing the boxes on top of it.

[@TechMadeEzy]

That is coming no later than the summertime Believe It or Not they've got a bunch of stuff coming

[@MONEYZ123]

I finally got my hands on this freakin drawer. Very difficult to find!

[@TechMadeEzy]

I agree, glad you grabbed one 👍🏻

[@mrbadger9920]

Click on Settings, Playback speed, 1.25. You're welcome.😉

[@aigdallas]

I wish he bad reviewed flex tool drawers also but still a good review

[@ggrimm79]

I think ToughBuilt blew an opportunity to make the latches metal and lockable. They're so close to the steel rails. I put python locks through my PackOut towers, but it's kind of a pain, and they have to go through a very small, cuttable piece of plastic. Seeing as tools are one of the most stolen items, a moderately higher level of security would have been appreciated.

[@2chipped]

Very rarely would someone choose a single drawer,since you lose 2 inches between units. I consider this a fail. The packout cabinet doesn't have a drawer,but i can fit my Makita or Metabo tracksw from the front. A single 12 inch drawer would have meade more sense,despite people everywhere have been begging from all munufactorers. I wish i had 80/20 extrusions more readily available, would make all these plastic boxes look like amateurs.

[@TechMadeEzy]

TOUGHBUILT does have more drawer boxes coming out, larger drawers by the summer

[@a.i.gdallas3581]

I would absolutely choose single drawers gives me more flexibility to swap things out with less weight instead of a heavy 2or3 drawer I can grab the singles and mix and match

[@TechMadeEzy]

@a.i.gdallas3581 the larger single drawers will be out I believe spring or summer

[@alvarovaltierra5381]

What the heck is going on with Toughbuilt?? Everything is out of stock! They don’t even offer the single drawer anymore!

[@TechMadeEzy]

Lowes inventory is a hot mess also,. Many stores have inventory, some even up top in the aisles.

[@barrybrown7892]

Nothing on sale or priced like you have found. 😢

[@TechMadeEzy]

@barrybrown7892 sorry buddy, I haven't seen any sales since then.

[@JJ-qi9zn]

Milwaukee Rules!

[@AKSKSMAN]

All this video did was sell me more on the Milwaukee side. Milwaukee has 12 points of contact and tough built has 4. All Milwaukee stacks on top of one another while the tough built will need an adapter for the half boxes. Two drawers that don’t lock for $198 or Milwaukee that can lock and $160

[@a.i.gdallas3581]

Even milwaukee has issues like you can't put half boxes on tip of their crates securely I mean evey1 shoots and misses from tine to time
