EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED

I would like to point out that all four of these pictures were taken immediately after each new box was opened. I ordered 4 packs for $90; opened it, got frustrated, tried it on my toolbox and got even more frustrated. I'm returning them now. As I opened each box, I noticed that the magnets, black tabs, and orange slots fell out of the box before the real widgets even came out; This happened to all 4 boxes. They fell apart and were broken upon arrival! Close-up of the magnet: you can see that the magnet is not centered on the base plate. So if you try to put it back into the widget, it will push the plastic case back. almost immediately and fall out again General picture with 3 magnets: you can see the general shape of the product when unpacking; Well, one of the three plastic latches that fell out broke three magnets. Note that the bottom one wasn't a complete ground plane and had a large chip in the corner. I haven't looked for others that might be broken, but between this one and the one with a misaligned magnet, I can say their build quality, like that of the company, is lacking. So the manufacturer will probably try to tell me that you can always snap the magnets back on once they arrive. Well I've tried and the little legs holding those black tabs in place break very easily and then they don't stay in the widget at all. This was one of my frustrations when trying to put them in my tool box, every time I tried to move them, 2-3 magnets fell out. That means you have to completely clean the tool strip, mount the magnets, try to line it up correctly, and then refill the rack with your tools only to find you're 1/4 inch off. The magnets are also not strong enough to hold tools in place when you're rolling your toolbox around (much like a plastic factory worker). After all, I work as a repairman in a plastics factory. I know (roughly) how much each unit costs. I'll bet money their box doesn't cost more than $2 for the shape, finish, and packaging. It probably cost them $7 to produce my entire 4-box package, and they charged me over $90. My place of work makes food grade plastics (think milk cartons, butter dishes, yogurt etc) which shouldn't fall apart and need to be screwed together well so I know the process is doable and the quality can be significantly higher especially for the prices that they ask for. They need to bring a few process engineers into their building and debug the automated equipment. This greatly improves the overall quality of the product. As it stands, I would not recommend this product to anyone. It's overpriced (highway robbery) and the quality is terrible. For these prices, I expected something that wouldn't break or fall apart before opening.

Pros
  • Great product
Cons
  • Clarity
