Sorting out/maintaining tools before winter sets in led to a mini spending spree on new (DeWalt TSTAK) cases for tools. The inevitable corollary was doing something about the chaos of fixtures and fittings mixed up and put away any old how and since I don't need the bomb-proof TSTAK for all the bits and pieces I thought I'd check out the FatMax Shallow Pro Organiser. The positive reviews are not exaggerated: the mega-sturdy construction - over-engineered like the proverbial brick outhouse - gives me confidence they won't come apart under the weight of metal sloshing about inside when filled. A big bonus is they come with handy sorting bins for (at the time of purchase)

I already have several of the deep version of this case.This one was bought to house the screws from my Screwfix Turbo Silver General Trade Case. Same number of compartments as the Screwfix metal one, but easier to use and see what you have in the case. There is much less chance of marking floors/walls/doors with this being plastic.Tough, reliable cases that allow you to instantly identify contents. I have never had any problems with the plastic catches and no need for waterproofing, so opted for this version. If waterproof properties are a concern, opt for the one with the seal and metal catches for a few pounds more, the Stanley FatMax 1-97-517 Shallow Pro Organiser.The deep and shallow versions are compatible for clipping together for storage or carrying.

This is quite a big box. The clasps fasten the lid securely, but they operate, for me at least, counter-intuitively, so I always pull from the wrong edge before realising. The yellow individual containers are deep enough, but not so deep it's difficult to retrieve small items -like screws. Mind you most of these small containers are too large for a few loose screws without wasting a lot of space. Screws in bags would be ok. I've managed to fit a whole set of half a dozen small pliers in the largest size.It appears to be solid and well-constructed, but I only need it to keep things tidy and occasionally portable so it won't see any heavy use by me.

This new type of design that uses small boxes instead of dividers (small strips of plastic) is great. In addition, multiple boxes can be locked together with a small side locking lever.The price is relatively high however and I assume it will go down, and if it does so I might purchase one or two more.There are 8 trays and 2 large trays that are twice the size.I think the product would be better if there were a couple of small trays (maybe 4 or 6) that are half the size of the standard tray. This would give more options and make the product more desireable.For this - and for the price - I take one star away of what is otherwise a good quality item.

I used to have boxes of screws, nails, et al from each of my DIY projects. I would often go to the hardware store thinking I didn't have a particular screw type... of course... I did but it was buried among lots of other boxes.In my new FatMax world, simply grab the interconnected FatMax boxes and bring them all to the project area, separate the box that contains the item type you want, look for item through the clear lid, and lift out the inner box and take it to the area you're working in. Much much easier and satisfies my OCD.

I've got loads of these in deep and shallow. I've never had a better organiser and the ability to attach them together makes them very useful for grouping certain things (wall plugs, screws, bolts, plumbing fittings). Makes life a lot easier, especially with removable sections if you only need a couple of bits. Great build quality, thick solid plastic throughout with clear lids to easily see which organiser is needed. Only trouble is the price really.

This is really good - sturdy build, and you can take the individual compartments out, helping to avoid knocking the entire case off a shelf and losing the contents everywhere!If you're a hobbyist it's great as well - I bought this for my son, he's an X-Wing game player, and you can remove the existing compartments and put the plastic vehicle holders directly into the case as they're just about the right height!

As organiser storage boxes go these have to be the best ever. I had some of the older junior boxes made by Stanley and they have lasted for years but the catches were a little flimsy and the tops were nearly opaque. These new pro-organisers are brilliant, I now have 10 of them in different sizes for keeping all sorts tidy in the back of my truck. The fact that they lock together so well is an added bonus.

Great storage box could maybe have done with dividers for tubs I use mine for nuts and bolts and some of the tubs only have a few nuts in them so a divider would have been ideal. Even if you could purchase more tubs you could swap the larger tubs for small ones. But apart from that I am really 8mpressed with the storage box I have just purchased a deeper one and love the fact you can clip boxes together.

Great for storage, clear lid so you can immediately see what’s inside, durable, doesn’t mark things like metal boxes do, it’s a shame it doesn’t have steel latches to close like he deep version, but something I couldn’t seem to find an answer to till I bought This shallow box is, will it clip together to the deeper version? Answer? YES! at least the one I bought did anyhow, Great system!

Perfect. Ideal for keeping all your fixings, wall plugs etc. tidy. The removable inner boxes mean you can just take what you need to the work area. I bought 4 and they neatly stack together, clip together even if you want to. Inner boxes are transferable between boxes enabling you to group similar items easily. Quality product.

Tough, transportable cases for small parts, components, nuts, bolts and screws etc. The case are stackable and will lock together. They are so much better than the cheaper organiser cases from Stanley. So whilst more expensive this more than justified by the ease of use, durability and flexibility of these units.

Really useful case. I particularly like that the compartments can be removed so only the screws you need for a job can be taken out of the case rather than lugging the whole case around. The other compartments then stay put because the lid holds them firmly in place. Seems very sturdy.

Very sturdy and well-designed organiser whose lid clips solidly and reliably to the body. There are 4 clips in total, 2 by the handle and 2 at the sides, so the lid can't be deformed by the weight of the contents. And it certainly won't open accidentally!

Love these boxes. The the removable inserts and clear polycarbonate lid makes a difference. For me this shallow FatMax Pro sits between the the two sizes of the ordinary Stanley organiser boxes which have now been branded Black & Decker.
