I like packout more because they have more options to customize to your like, the locking latching system on packout is extremely easy to stack and more durable.
The flex medium box can hold two trays at the same time. Don’t know when you purchased that. Did the trade not come with it because you should have at least one tray with that box.
I am a PACKOUT guy and I said I was never going to get the Stack Pack but it was on sale, and it has that cool effect. I like the front load on PACKOUT but everything I like with FLEX.
I hear you. Its hard to not see a lot of “improvements” that they have made. Hope this will push Milwaukee to improve their product. The Current Stack Pack prices are very hard to beat. Curious to see if they expand their line.
This is the comment I am posting everywhere possible: Bought this Flex pack out a few months ago. Used on three projects. The latches between the top box and the middle box kept hanging up or not locking. Soooo, tried to call company service to get a fix. Wasn't asking for anything but a tech to walk me through the fix(maybe a replacement latch?). First, good luck getting through, they DON"T answer their phones. After a half hour hold the message comes on offering a call back. No choice gotta grow old on the phone or give up. No call back, so the next day I try again, same deal, but this time I get a call back. Pleasant young lady hears the problem and takes all my info and says they are sending a new replacement unit!! Of course nothing took place, NO Replacement Unit, No Latches, NO NOTHING!!!! The product seems to be well made except for these few minor issues, however I would never recommend buying a Flex product. They have no customer loyalty. I no longer care to upgrade my tool platform to your products, as I was considering your power tool line. Not anymore.
I have now over 40 pieces of FLEX tools and had to call in every piece for registration because I am old fashioned and would rather not deal with the internet. With my experience Sir i realized you are a full fledged liar with a fictitious story. I actually thought I had an issue with the Stack Pack roller handle which was user error yet FLEX sent me 2 rollers for my error. Sir FLEX Customer Service is among the best even though Mondays are the worst days to call. You Sir are a LIAR at best and should stop the shenanigans. Sir stop living out of your lying imaginations, if you don't like a product that's fine but the untruthful stories has to stop. By the way I have 22 pieces of PACKOUT and 7 pieces of Stack Pack.
@@packoutjunkie5813just bought the 3 drawer FLEX Stack Pack from Lowes and I am dumping the old wife for the new younger zexy FLEXy Stack Pack. 24 pieces of Milwaukee PACKOUT get the F...... out of this house.
@@rickyperkins232 Rollying drawers seems to be a requested item from everybody. Kinda surprised nobody hasn’t made them yet. We will have to see what 2023 brings.
Cleat system on the packout is far superior. Try removing the flex boxes in tight spaces, like a van or stacked side by side. You have to pull the whole stack out to get to the side latches vs the front release on the packout.
Rigid is the best , easy to stack and unstack. You have to unstack and stack quickly, and they are heavy when loaded. You need to do this when going upstairs, etc. So simple is better. Also, you can get your tools out of the Rigid while they are stacked. You just keep the sides latches on, then you unlatch the box in front that you need to get your tools from and tilt , try it , you'll like it 👍😁
Agree. I would be interested into seeing what they bring. Personally I still feel the latching system from Milwaukee is the golden ticket. Rugged and hard to beat.

No trays came with the box. Someone must have swiped it. Thank you for letting me know!!
@@packoutjunkie5813 every one of those boxes comes with a single tray
@@rickyperkins232 Thank you for letting me know. The one I bought didn’t. I will have to take it back and see what’s up.

That stinks. The small box I do have has been okay so far. Sorry to hear about your issues.

I am a fanatic when it comes to FLEX however the stackpack lacks drawers
They make them now. There's about 14 new add-ons that came out recently.
Sounds like they are coming soon for Flex.

Thank you.
@@packoutjunkie5813 I really need drawers, FLEX should make rolling drawers

@@rickyperkins232they have them. I saw that on another video today. It's a dolly with 4 wheels you can attach to any of the stacking boxes.

Good point. I agree Packout’s latch system is their golden ticket.
Try pulling the packout out when a pebble or dirt get in it good luck

Packout! No question!
