Don’t you have to be an Official Club Member before placing an order?

I went the Festool systainer route about 5 years ago. Most of the clips that hold them together in a stack are broken off now. They didnt hold up well at all. I've been using the Milwaukee Packout for a couple months now and not looking back at the systainers. MUCH better IMHO. (For the record, I still love my CT-mini. Best vac out there)

They are nice. MUCH more durable than Systainers. If they only had a vac as good as festool, Then it would be perfect

It’s a tried and true design.

It’s a tried and true design. All T-Loc. The new style. 3 of mine just dropped out when Picked up. They were not too heavy either. 1 Sys-1 handle came off too. I took care of them as too. Milwaukee packout is far superior IMO. Plus they are WATERPROOF. Nothing gets dirty in them. And (a little) less expensive but fit ALOT more

trust me I had the backs clipped in. They wont stay together if the backs are not clipped in. They broke off after some time.

I had ordered Systainers a few years ago based on discussion in this forum. I was immediately disappointed with the flimsiness and went with the Ridgid Pro 22” system instead. Now I am slowly replacing with Packout. There isn’t anything wrong with the Ridgid, but Packout has more SKUs/options. Especially with the recently released mounting plate and crate options. Hope to share pics soon

Even though Festool power tools are top notch, I wasn't impressed with the systainer quality. I went with Milwaukee Packout stuff since we already use their power tools. The packouts with custom foam is the ticket.My van is much better organized since doing it that way.

I really like what is offered in that system, but the reviews mostly state that the wheels on the base are cheap and break easily.
