Review on Enhanced Protection for Pelican 1651: High-Quality 4 Piece Foam Set by Eric Pavelko

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Not suitable for OEM. Non-OEM Quality

- definitely NOT an OEM replacement! The bottom layer is approximately 2 inches shorter than the OEM foam at each narrow end. The lid foam must be trimmed to fit (this lid foam has square corners, the OEM foam has rounded corners to match the radius of the lid cones). The only two components that fit correctly in the Pelican 1650 body are the two "puck-n-pull" center components. This foam is cheaper quality than Pelican OEM foam. If an item is placed between the layers of foam and the lid is closed, the foam will "cure" in just 5 minutes and will not "crack" like OEM foam. I suppose it's ok if you put the same item in the same place every time, but I don't. - Finally, I really hate it when sellers use FedX "Smart Post". 12 calendar days to get from CA to MT. Revain Prime delivery may have "spoiled" many of us, but it's sad when I could drive to a retailer and get home in a quarter of the time it takes for a shipped item to be delivered.
