Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Rubbermaid 1191 ActionPacker Storage Box, 35-Gallon
Customer Review: My kingdom for a handle
Summary: 4 Stars
Unlike other large plastic cargo containers with flimsy lids, these are well made and sturdy. Our recent family camping trip was a success thanks to the two I purchased. The boxes also doubled as bench seats and a windbreak. My only criticism is this particular model's size makes handling awkward for one person. There are also no handholds to easily pick it up. What does exist are narrow finger pulls on each end of the box. Otherwise, I recommend this product.Customer Review: Serves It's Purpose
Summary: 4 Stars
It's a big plastic box and serves that purpose well. It was purchased to ship and carry car camping gear but has not been employed for that yet.
It is difficult to carry. The handles are far down on the sides; the bin presses awkwardly into the wrists and forearms when being carried. It is much easier to carry a fully loaded cool than this box.
Customer Review: Great for Storage
Summary: 4 Stars
So we are moving our family of four to Costa Rica and we thought these action packers would be great to get out belongings there safe and sound. They hold a lot of our stuff and they are super tough. They made the flight without a bump or scratch on our stuff and the action packers themselves look brand new still. They didn't get 5 stars because they weigh 13 pounds alone and that took away from the 50 pounds your allowed on an airline. Though I doubt they would be as sturdy if they were light weight. Customer Review: acceptable, hard to lock
Summary: 4 Stars
Does what it's supposed to do. The red latch is hard to close and not easy to padlock. Customer Review: Best little container for travel or camping
Summary: 5 Stars
Being a "handyman" - of sorts, when I go to the summer cottage or to see the grandkids, I need to have my tools and their accessories with me. Rusty, my faithful hound takes up the cargo area of the SUV, so I needed weather-resistant containers. I have a trailer-hitch carrier which readily accommodates these containers- on either side of the license plate - and allows the tailgate to open while they are still on the carrier. Perfect.
*BE CAREFUL of using trailer hitch carriers for valuables. Thieves lurk at rest stops and roadside restaurants.
