I bit the bullet and picked up the brand new Milwaukee Packout 15 Inch Structured Tote. I'll run through a few of my thoughts on the bag and show how I have it set up for my line of work.

I have one, very impressed how much stuff I can get into one. I'm a general contractor, so I need a variety of stuff. I carry this and my pack out backpack and I'm set for most jobs

I have to see what Toughbuilt Stacktech has to offer first. I love the Toughbuilt tool tote.

I'll be honest, the Stacktech stuff looks impressive. If I weren't already all-in on Packout stuff, I would be seriously looking at Stacktech.

Looks short. Long shank drivers could be a problem. Veto ain’t loosing any sleep over it. Copy of a Veto MC. Wonder about the warranty. For an extra $20 bucks get the Veto.
@zebuloncarpenter589 ай бұрын
Depends on how long you need. Six-inch screwdrivers fit in the opening flaps just fine. Depending on the size of the grips, eight-inch would be doable. Veto makes great bags (I have a few), but they aren't able to click onto your Packout system. That's the real selling point on this bag. The bag has a "limited lifetime warranty" according to Milwaukee's website. I'm not sure what the limitations are, but after a few weeks of use, I'm not worried at all about longevity.

mines like a year old and really showing it, zippers are starting to suck, tape and tape measure holder is failing, handles on top are looking like they are tearing. And some of the pockets in main area are just useless. everything falls out of the lower pockets. Bag tips over more than me on a wild friday night. Definitely retiring it within the month

Im a Milwaukee guy but for that price the only bag I'll ever buy is a Veto Pro Pac. You can see where Milwaukee got their inspiration for the design lmao.
@solomonhumphries32407 ай бұрын
Mostly agree. If you're already are in the Milwaukee family, AND you like having the Packout bottom, this is a great choice. It gives you the ProPac that locks in.

Thank you for the video A/V tech as well (most of the same tools). This helps in my decision process. Overall how heavy do you think it is?
@zebuloncarpenter587 ай бұрын
Fully loaded, I would guess it's in the 35-40lb range. It would definitely be pretty heavy if I didn't have wheels, but since I usually just move it from my van to a cart with my packout drawers, it isn't bad. Having it secured to the rest of my tool boxes is a lifesaver.
@evanmoller9059 ай бұрын
What’s the measurement from the bottom of the bag to where the handle starts/can fold over? Love the bag, but fitting things under a Tacoma bed cover is a challenge sometimes.
@zebuloncarpenter589 ай бұрын
I just measured it, and it is about 16" high with the handle folded over and the strap split over the handle. The main compartment of the bag is about 15" high.
@mickymiacky9 ай бұрын
I’m debating between the 10” and 15” 🤯
@zebuloncarpenter589 ай бұрын
I think it comes down to what kind of tools you need to carry with you. I think the 10" would be great for plumbers and guys that need a lot of larger, longer tools, but who don't need as much organization and small part containers. The 15" seems more geared to technicians with smaller or more specialized tools.
@Rawfloors5 ай бұрын
How deep is the compartment, thinking of getting this to replace my pack out backpack. Really tired of the backpack falling over Everytime I go to open it. One of my must haves is a 19oz estwing though so curious if it will fit a medium sized hammer
@zebuloncarpenter585 ай бұрын
The internal pockets are about 13 1/2" inches tall and about 15 1/2" wide. If you're dealing with longer tools like hammers and large wrenches, I think the open top tote would be idea.

It's as heavy as you want to load it. The bag itself isn't crazy heavy, but it definitely feels solid.
@wookiescookies9 ай бұрын
Do you think the side with the bigger pockets is large enough to fit one or two power tools if the pockets aren't being used? I typically like having my compact impact driver and oscillating multitool in my tote and that's what's stopping me from purchasing one of these bags
@zebuloncarpenter589 ай бұрын
Yeah, absolutely. The official advertisements show an M12 drill/driver set in the pockets, and I think there is probably room for an 18/20v set in there.

Toughbuilt makes good bags for the money, but the last time I checked, they don't make anything that is compatible with Packout connections. That's the real draw here.

@zebuloncarpenter58Ай бұрын
There are worse designs to copy. I wouldn't claim that this bag is a groundbreaking design, or that it does something (outside of the Packout feet) that Veto bags don't do. I think that Veto is still the standard by which all tool bags are judged, but I also think that this bag stands up to that standard really well. The big advantage of this bag is the compatibility with the Packout system, as well as the Milwaukee warranty.

@@zebuloncarpenter58 I wasn't complaining, I like the competition. I use a Veto Pro Tech MTC daily for work and liked from the beginning how I can quickly reach for my tools and how they are organized. There is no "perfect" bag but Milwaukee may bring on some heat from other makers. Good review!

Copy and paste from Veto Pro Pac. Quality probably is a crap. Wondering if you have 5 years no downtime warranty. 💩💩💩
@zebuloncarpenter589 ай бұрын
No, you don't get a five year warranty. You get a lifetime warranty. I don't know what the exchange process is, but I'm guessing you can just take it back to Home Depot for a swap, which is way better than dealing with shipping stuff back and forth from Veto. As I said repeatedly in the video (if you bothered to watch it), the quality is fantastic. It is easily on par with Veto.
@TheHVACProfessor9 ай бұрын
its not even close to the quality of Veto dude. At that kind of mass manufacturing its not possible. It's an ok bag but just a cheap knockoff of a fantastic bag. @@zebuloncarpenter58
