Husky GP-43196N13 18" 600-Denier Red Water Resistant Contractor's Rolling Tool Tote Bag with Telescoping Handle

Product Information

Overall, Husky makes sturdy tool bags that can withstand a tough working environment but might not protect your hand tools if the bag gets thrown around or if heavy items land on it at the job site. While some builders, fixers, and creators might prefer carrying a toolbox in each hand, others might seek out one reliable tool bag that can hold it all. I found that lifting a loaded bag into the back of the truck without these handles can be difficult, especially when loaded to capacity.

Other than some of my longer tools like pry bars and handsaws, it held just about every hand tool imaginable for a DIY kit, as well as most power tools. Greenlee’s GRE-6 interchangeable-head cable termination tool is designed for cutting up to 750 kcmil copper/aluminum building wire.I’m working on a really fun collaboration project with the Shanty 2 Chic sisters (more on that soon! Once you start rolling it around though the weight disappears; it’s really only an issue when lifting.

The smoothness of the zipper makes it easy to open the bag with just one hand, though it did require both of my hands to zip it shut. All in all, this rolling tool bag has all the bells and whistles (or nooks and crannies, rather) for working remotely. An extra set of handles and maybe some smaller pockets would increase the functionality, but their absence doesn’t take away from the value and convenience this bag offers. Because they’re tool bags I’d use myself, they’re affordable, and most winners could surely use them for something. I found them to be the most comfortable in a group of competitors’ tool bags loaded with the same tools, despite the Husky weighing 7 pounds unloaded (compared to the other bags weighing roughly 2 to 3 pounds).It is made from blue canvas and features storage space for a laptop, documents, a helmet and a variety of hand tools. I’m really happy with the tool bag I have that fits perfectly in my rolling DeWalt ToughSystem tool box so I don’t have to roll it all the way in from my truck. When a brand such as Crescent comes out with new too bags, I imagine that they think Husky is the brand to beat.
