- Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2025Style: Workshop RackingVerified PurchaseHave things mounted in a work trailer. Haven't had any problems with the arms breaking. Ready to upgrade to the stronger style arms if the did but so far so good. Has two open bins for bulk tools and materials and three drill/driver boxes over those. The 1/2" impact box is heavy with the sockets and extensions, but no problem. Very pleased thus far...
- Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2025Style: Open Tote CaseVerified PurchaseThese are extremely heavy duty, tough boxes. I use two to tote around various tools, materials, etc. and they've stood the test of time.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2025Style: Open Tote CaseVerified PurchaseGreat. Fits exactly as we needed.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 8, 2017I am not a contractor, but a DIY weekender who uses his tools fairly frequently. I have used cheap tools my entire life but with the encouragement of my nephew's (both of which are contractors) I finally bit the bullet and purchased just about the entire Dewalt 20v XR lineup about a year ago. After spending thousands of dollars, I needed a portable storage solution that would protect my new investment. I purchased the Dewalt Tough System dolly and several boxes to go with it. I liked it so much I purchased a second dolly and currently have about 12 of the boxes of different sizes. At first I was very satisfied with the purchase, but since then have had several mishaps that have made me question the amount of money I have spent on them and whether the durability matches the price! The first was the air vent that is on the top of the boxes. This vent is meant to equalize the pressure when traveling at different altitudes yet still keep the tools dry with the weatherproof seals. The first issue I had was when I left a couple of the boxes out in the rain. Even though these boxes are listed as weatherproof, the vents still managed to leak even though the vent on top was closed, luckily the box that leaked was one that only had hand tools in it so I was able to dry them out without too much ill effect, but if this box had contained some of the power tools it would have been a different story! The second issue I had with the vent is when it actually came off in my had while closing it. The vents are held on by a "c" clip on the bottom of the vent. If you accidentally twist the vent to hard the clip pops off and the entire vent comes out and is not very easy to get back on. After this occurs a couple of times the c clip is starts popping off easier and easier until you cant close the vent tight enough to seal it to keep water out anymore! The boxes are sold with a premise that they are practically indestructible, this is not the case, especially in cold weather! Although they are built very thick and heavy, the material they are made of becomes fairly brittle when in cold weather, even moderately cold weather. As a result I have had pieces of them (especially the feet) break off from just from the moderate impact of sliding a couple of feet in the bed of my truck while cold. This is very disheartening considering the amount of money I have invested in this set up!
When it comes specifically to the DWST08203 Large box there are several key factors that are pros or cons!
Pros:
Looks great and works well with the tough system dolly storage system.
It is large, but not too large! You can fit a circular saw, jig saw, grinder, and all the accessories needed in one box, but still able to be moved around by one person.
It is built tough and somewhat waterproof.
Cons:
It is heavy, even when not loaded with tools. When loaded with tools it can be heavy enough to stress you back, or be too heavy to carry around without the dolly!
It has its limitations, especially when cold, and it does not come with the organizer insert that comes with the XL version. You cannot order the organizer, even though it comes with the brackets for it molded into the case!
It is expensive for what it is, unless you find it on special!

- Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2024Style: Open Tote CaseVerified PurchaseI stick this in my trunk and it usually stays there. I get my belt out at the start of the day. If I have anyone working for me I may bring the whole thing for the extra tools. It snaps right on top of my Toughcase 2 stuff, and it has the sturdiness and durability you've come to expect. I do like the versatility of this box. I'll definitely buy another because there are just some things it can do that the ones that close can't. Or I'd need a extra large case for over 100, I've probably spent over 2k just on dewalt cases (both lines, the smaller boxes are awesome for kits and for tools with accessories. I love how those snap together and both lines have a duffle bag I have that can top off your stack. For my other I bought the 4 wheel base rather than the wheel and handle box. Not quite as nice as the Milwaukee line, but cheaper and I put foam in every one cut to all the tools. You open one of my boxes it looks like a Festool sustainer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good value
Perfect organizer for my screws and fits right in top of the tough system 2.0. Very sturdy and seals nicely. There has to be at least 50lbs of screws in it! Now I just need a brace for my back when I need to lift it again.

Style: Extra Large CaseVerified PurchaseI recently got into the world of weekend home construction and needed something to store my new power tools.
This case feels ultra strong and durable and is exactly what I needed to keep my investments safe.
It comfortably holds my cordless DEWALT Skill Saw, Jigsaw and Reciprocating Saw and the upper tray is great to hold bits, pencils and everything else while you work.
It stores very well and I'm very happy with this purchase.
