Just researching these new Tough System 2 boxes, and quite dissappointing first video I’ve found with a hinge design issue? I’m a dewalt fanboy, but as others are complaining, they are just falling behind right now.

The same chap has found another issue as well with Tough System 2……..

I think Dewalt need to offer this guy a job in their engineering/testing department…….
Have they just rushed this to market, or what?

Everything I’ve seen out of the 2.0 system has been a step backwards for their storage boxes.
Sounds like I need to stock up 1.0 bowlers before I’m stuck converting to Packouts.
I feel the auto locking side latches are a step in the right direction. not sure why the front latches are plastic but I don’t see that as being much of an issue. I heard about some hinge problems but I never looked into it. The modular storage trays look nice but it is kinda disappointing they are sold separate from the large and xl 2.0 boxes. Right now some of DeWALT’s resources are going into manufacturing ventilators to help with Covid but that doesn’t excuse a lower quality product.
