Akro-Mils 09514 ProBox Plastic Toolbox with Removable Tray for Tools, Hobby or Craft Storage, 14-Inch x 8-Inch x 8-Inch, Red

I liked the metal bail on the hasp, toolboxes always get more put in them than you expect to, so stronger features are always appreciated. Function-wise, it is as easy to use as any toolbox, opening, closing, carrying, all quite satisfactory. I’ve taken to buying toolboxes in different colors so I don’t have to open a bunch of identical boxes to find the one I need. This comes in different colors, so I’ve got that covered. The fact this has a flat top for stacking makes it indispensable.

Bought as a toolbox to house a bunch of extra drill bits, drivers, socket bits and so on. Essentially, a bunch of extra stuff that aren’t part of my usual daily bag . As such it’s a garage box that’s still mobile and see-through, not a “get-beat-up-everyday” box.ProsVery good hinges (can never say enough about this with plastic boxes)Durable (within reason)Somewhat see-throughConsNone for meInner dimensions below.(variances are accounting for inner molding as seen in pics):Length at bottom: 12.5 - 12.75”Length at top: 12.75 - 13.75”If specifics are a concern, assume 12.5” for entire inner lower-box.Depth at bottom: 5.5-6.25”If specifics are a concern, assume 5.5” for entire inner lower-box.Height(Not exactly straight forward when getting to the lid area as this is where there would be uneven “mushing” space)Inner Lower-box: 5 11/16” or 5.6875”Inner Lid: 1 - 1 11/16 or 1.6875”Effectively, inner height is anywhere from 6.6875 - 7.366”Weight tolerances- It’s currently holding 14 lbs of tools very comfortably and without concern.- 25 lb dumbbell: it held, but lid very visibly strained. Would not move it around this way, probably not even store this weight.- 20 lb dumbbell: holds decently, but would not subject to a lot of wild movement or banging around.- Anything sub 18 lbs should not be of any concern at all, even if moved aggressively. (This is not to say being tossed over a tailgate into a truck.)As a lightweight, see-through (sort of), fast-grab box, this works well for what I needed. Great hinges. Hope the measurements help.

I use toolboxes to store all sorts of things. Most of the time I don't use the removable trays. I just pile stuff to the brim. I have 2 of these toolboxes and they have worked well. They happen to be just the right size for part of my storage area.

Small, simple, study and light weight.Perfect to keep some general tools organized in the house.

It works as expected

Dont know why finding an affordable large red box made of durable material is so hard.If i got a first aid box it would be 50 bucks for the size i wantedThis is perfect. Im adhd, object permanence is a daily struggle. When i injure myself i am always running around the house looking for things. Remembering the place it last out them in a need, but not remembering where i put them after the need had passed. So i wanted a first aid kit on my bathroom where i could see it. Bright red, hard to miss, not under a sink or in a cupboard or in a closet. Not under anything, behind anything, covered by something. I wanted it visible at all times.This wasn't cheap, but it was affordable, decent size durable bright red and very visible. Highly recommend!

Overall, it's a reasonable small toolbox. Plenty of capacity, seems well built. Akro-Mills tends to build solid stuff. Don't know how durable this will turn out to be, but the latch is metal, not plastic, and I fond no "living hinges", so it bodes well for durability.That's the good stuff out of the way. I wanted a toolbox with a tray, for the little stuff that doesn't need to rattle around in the bottom with the heavier tools. This is one of the few smaller toolboxes I could find, with a removable tray...which, unfortunately, has a large hole in its center.Now, I understand why that hole has to be there...it's a consequence of the molding process they used to make it. That is a reason, but not an excuse, for this abysmally poor design. As I expected, the slight lip around the hole in the tray does not prevent objects in it from falling down into the main tool box at the slightest jolt. After a day of this, I glued up a better tray, without a hole in the middle, out of 1/4" plywood. It took me an hour, cost me nothing, because I used a small scrap I had on hand, and it works far better than Akro-Mills' abysmal attempt.I would encourage Akro-Mills to redesign that tray. Because it's pretty useless as storage for smaller items as it is. Other than that, this is a great toolbox for the price.

This is a small but spacious toolbox. It's perfect for as an emergency box or even just to carry tools in your car. It's nice and light but also ridged enough to withstand it being used. It comes with an insert that makes finding screwdrivers and small tools quickly.
