Su material es de alta calidad y fortaleza

I'm always looking for ways to improve on things and in this case, transport and storage of my carpentry tools to and at my camp. I bought this 20 gallon Brute tote to use for that purpose and it has not disappointed. It was a GOLD box deal at @ $22.00 from it's normal $29.00 price.This Rubbermaid product is not the typical tote that is flexible and flimsy. This tote is on steroids. It's composition is more along the lines of heavy duty plastic/resin composition, than it is of a rubber, soft plastic material. This thing is rigid, with a very well designed lid that fits snug and completely overlaps the tub part all the way around the perimeter preventing any rain, or other water, snow etc from entering. Of course if this unit was completely submerged under water my guess it would take on water, but when is that going to happen, who's going to do that. Then again they said the Titanic was unsinkable. The handles on this are committed to secure the top lid to the bottom portion and snap in place with authority.The bottom was formed with raised ribbing not only for reinforcement but to hasten wear. You can load this thing up with heavy objects, and in my case tools and the bottom is not going to sag or drop out. The handles on the lid are "through" type and not just lift style, and are situated as to not allow water penetration into the compartment area. These units are stackable, and I believe the top lid would hold another loaded tote but I always use a piece of plywood or OSB placed on the lower totes lid overlapping the lid by a couple inches, then set the top tote on it, to evenly disperse the weight around the perimeter edge of the tote where there is greater strength, if I'm going to store totes for long periods. When I did receive this tote from Amazon in their unbelievable speedy fashion I was overly impressed with the quality and construction. I needed another one ASAP that day and was able to locate them at one of the big box store that is not orange but blue/grey, okay Lowes for $24.00, $2 more than I paid on the gold box deal. This tote would well serve tradesmen and campers alike who like to keep their possessions dry. Keep in mine that there is no molded locking hole to secure a lock which is kind of redundant as a thief would steal the entire unit anyway. I bet that if you were really bored in the winter you could use this for one huge single portion ice cube and it wouldn't crack, as the walls are pitched about 10 degrees. You would just have to find a Manhattan glass large enough. One suggestion for those of you looking to set up natural spring (water) flow systems. This unit with slight modifications with holes drilled, incoming, outgoing and overflow with bulkhead fittings can be modified and used as a "spring box" which is set up within feet of the spring pipe (which is the incoming pipe), then an out going pipe to the larger collection/distribution tank, as I have done.The secure fitting lid prevents any outside contamination of any kind and at the same time allows for removal to conduct maintenance on the unit. No need to spend almost $200 on ones from companies that sell "spring boxes". Buy this unit you won't be sorry. Good Luck..Tom W.

Déjà pour le prix je n'ai pas eu le couvercle ! Bien plus petit que je le croyais, j'espérais mettre dedans plein de choses durant déménagement mais non, je rangerai dans le carton qui a servi à son transport exactement la taille voulue. Les poignets sont commodes et ne font pas mal aux mains point positif. Autre plus cela a l'air super costaud, dommage cet oubli du couvercle.
