1yr. Review.I bought this because I needed a tool box for the bed of my Tacoma but did not want to spend hundreds of dollars on a metal tool box that would get in the way of a bed cover or my aftermarket bed bars, which all of the ones at the hardware stores would. I also needed it to be deep enough to fit all of my stuff which again, most of the ones at the hardware stores were pretty shallow. I found this and decided to give it a shot.First off, the box is plastic but is texturized very well and feels like really good, heavy duty plastic. Kinda like a pelican case but a bit thinner. I have no issues with flex or cracks even loaded down. I can literally sit on this no problem. The texturizing would go very well with many bedliners people have, very similar to rhinoliner or linex. The lid hinges are good, no issues with that. The lockable hinges on the front are standard ones you can find at a hardware store for crafts/sheds. They are metal but im sure you could break them if you really wanted in. Provide your own padlocks and get good ones.The lid is very thick and sturdy. There is a lip around the inside under the lid, when the lid shuts, this lip seats under the lid's overhang which helps against water ingress. I never had any issue with water going into this but just for peace of mind, I added some 3m weatherstripping to the lid so the lip sits against that when closed. Not needed but just for safe measure. Its pretty waterproof as is. Great case for leaving outdoors and in general I think its better than those metal toolboxes. Even has little hand holds molded into the side edges. Now onto retrofitting it for my Tacoma.I bought the 6.3 cubic feet one. Let me just say this is a perfect fit for the bed of my Tacoma. It fits perfectly widthwise. I drilled four holes from the inside rear so I can attach a bolt through the back and bolt it to my rail system in the bed. I bought t-slot nuts made for the Tacoma's rail system and was able to perfectly attach this to that rail with bolts going through from the inside.The height is almost perfect but because I am bolting it a little higher to attach it to my rails, I took two 2x4's and cut them about a foot length each. Then I wrapped them in rubber matting I bought at a home depot. I bolted the 2x4's through the bottom of the toolbox to position it a little higher so I can clear my bed rails and open the lid while bolted on those rails. This way, the weight of the box rests on those 2x4s instead of hanging a few inches short from the bottom and stressing the plastic. Literally perfect now.My ONLY gripe with this box is I wish the lid had some kind of mechanism to stay open. Because its bolted against my truck's bed, I cant open the lid too far. Might fit some struts on it to help with that. Overall, the best toolbox for these Tacomas in my opinion. Im very happy.

I think this is what I have been looking for, a heavy duty plastic container that I can make water resistant and strong enough to deter potential thieves.Additional:Measurements: in inchesOutside:Bottom: 18.5 wide by 41.25 longTop: 19 wide by 44.5 longThe total heigth 17.0Inside: 18.0 wide by 41.0 long by 15.25 to the top of the lip.Top: double thickness and appears to have a black foam core to make it more ridge. I stood on it with my 200lbs.It is 2.25 thick at the lip and 1.0 thick inside the lip. 17.0 by 42.0 on the inside.The body is approximately 0.125 thick and presses directly on the flat inside of the lid following the shape of the tops overhang. I expect it to be water resistant to direct rainfall but as I intend to expose it to being pulled behind a motorcycle I will install a flat rubber seal where the bottom meets the top or find something better if it fails to keep the rain out.I'm going to use this as the basis of a solo-wheel motorcycle cargo trailer. It's frame will have sufficient structure to support about one hundred pounds of glamping gear when my spouse travels with me. Looks large enough to even carry a small cooler. The walls of it look to be twice the thickness of most house storage containers. Its also advertised for pickup bed storage. The lid is double wall and just needs a rubber seal to improve water resistance if exposed to the weather. I'll be finding out if I need to pack it using dry bags. I plan on repainting the black top a more reflective color to reduce its heat absorption.It was attractively priced and the shipping free. It arrived in less than a week. I should have a working trailer for my BMW R75 by the end of the summer.

I use this as a tool box on the back of my travel trailer. I bolted it to a cargo carrier that goes into a hitch. I loaded seven tool bags and put them into this box with a little room to spare. I weighed my tools and there are about 200 pounds of tools in it. I added 3/4" wide high density foam tape around the lid to give it a bit of a weather resistant seal. It worked great. The lid has a slight lip on it. With the lip and the foam, I haven't had a drop of water in the box and I have been in some heavy storms.I dropped a star for three small things. 1) The hinges could be slightly better, but they are not too bad. They should be mounted with a backing plate to make them stronger. 2) The latches are fine, but they too should be mounted with a one piece backing plate. They are pop riveted into the plastic. Knowing this, all it would take to break in would be a fat screwdriver slipped behind the latch and a bit of pressure. The plastic would expand and allow the rivets to pop out. 3) The lip around the lid and box does not have a lot of room in the back. There is very little room to put a gasket. I was careful and got a seal, but there isn't much of one.

I wanted something waterproof for the bed of my Tundra. So far so good several pretty decent rain storms box remains dry no nasty plastic odor. Looks nice in back of truck. I do not need it for heavy duty work it is more for straps gym bags pickleball paddles (things that cluttered the back of cab). This is a good option for my needs.

I have installed it in the back of my truck for general storage of diesel fluids and other related items and it worked out just great cause it's made of a single molded storage chest so that if I spill something inside of it it's not running all over my bed rug.It's also lockable if a chose to do so, but in my case not necessary.I am very happy with it and it was delivered on time too.

Not a totally waterproof storage but gets the job done. The only improvement to be made is that they state stainless steel latches however, I see surface rust forming after 1 week. For the price, this is a great product.

Nice box but the latches need improved opening and closing is awkward.
