The bag is easy to carry, particularly in attics, and helps keep everything organized. While some customers report it lasts over two years of heavy use, others mention it falls apart. The sturdiness receives mixed feedback, with some finding it sturdy while others note the bottom isn’t strong enough to support tools. Customers consider it worth the price.

Perfect tool bag for my Husbands Birthday
This is a really nice sturdy bag, seems like a very high quality. The Canvas is thick and I like that the bottom is made of a hard material that would be waterproof. The bottom is what failed on my Husbands last bag. There are several useful pockets. I also like that it has a big open space in the middle where he can put his power tools. The handle makes it very easy to carry around. I bought for my Husbands Birthday and I think he will be very happy with it.

Great Tool Bag, Great Customer Service
When I ordered this tool box, it shipped to me without the removable partition or shoulder strap. I contacted the company and within 24 hours the missing parts were on their way to me (granted it will take a few extra days for them to arrive). I am slightly irritated I had to do anything since I wanted to use the tool box right away, but I definitely appreciate CLC quickly fixing the error and it was much better and quicker than having to ship it back to Amazon and wait for a new one.Now for the tool box itself. I am an advanced DIY guy, and do a little light machining as part of my job, so I was looking for a tool box that could easily carry a 115-drill bit set, a few Plano 3500 series compartment boxes (which, by the way, fit great in the two larger end pockets), callipers, dial indicators, and a random assortment of other tools and stock. This tool bag is light, which means it remains manageable even when loaded down with stuff, unlike the all steel boxes I was also looking at. The pockets are for the most part useable for typical tools, although I wish the two smaller end pockets were the same as the larger end (small pockets are on the tape measure clip end). The material seems to be well stitched together, the handle is comfortable (although I’ll have to see how the foam holds up in the long run…), the frame feels sturdy without any noticeable flex, and overall it seems well made.Some things in particular:- The pen pockets are mounted high up; pro: you can always get to your pen/scribe, con: a sharpie sticks up above the end wall.- As pointed out in other reviews, the bottom is cloth, so if you carry heavy, odd shaped things, fitting a piece of 1/4 ply to the bottom is helpful if you use the movable divider.- It does not have velcro straps on the two ends (like the similar Home Depot box) for strapping a long level or blueprints or welding rods to – I may try to retrofit this myself.Overall, I am very happy with my purchase. I personally would not hesitate buying another CLC product or recommending this tool box to a friend based on my experience so far.

Holds more than I want to carry
Just the family and block handy guy. This is a great bag Lots of pockets to work with and an adjustable panel in the bottom . Got sealants and goo tubes in the short side , hammers ,pipe wrenches, clamps 14″ saw and such in the long side, usually 40 to 50 pounds, dont carry it much but does carry well. it takes up about half the floorboard space behind the drivers seat of my ext.cab and organizes the tools very well there for loading a tool belt. Every thing seems to stay where I put it. Its a pretty tough bag and has held up well for a year now with no complaints. Dog didnt complain about her space back there so we’re good !

Works well enough
This tool bag works well enough for my needs. The 20-inch size gives me plenty of space for my hand tools, and the 27 pockets make it easy to keep things organized without digging around. The open-top design is convenient when I need to grab something quickly, and the handle feels sturdy enough for everyday use.The material isnât as rigid as a hard case, so it can sag a little if itâs not fully loaded, but thatâs expected from a soft-sided bag. The shoulder strap is a nice bonus for carrying it around job sites.Overall, itâs practical, holds up well, and makes staying organized much easier. If youâre looking for something simple and effective without breaking the bank, this bag does the job.

CLC FTW!
I have 2 CLC tool bags so far but ran out of space in those and decided to purchase this one to hold my power tools (drills, sander, router, etc.). As usual, the “boxy bag” is well built and seems like it will stand the test of time just like my other 2. The pockets on the outside or useful but abit tight which makes it harder to store somewhat larger hand tools (not a nuisance enough, however, to make me take away a star for this review). The center compartment is big enough to hold the power tools I need it to without it making the bag feel too big and clumsy. Its nice that it comes with a shoulder strap, though I cant see myself using it at any point. The handle feels very strong and sturdy so you dont need to worry about it breaking away from the mostly fabric box bag.All in all, its a bit expensive but definitely worth the price. I will continue to buy Custom LeatherCraft bags and boxes to store my tools in in the future.Thanks for reading and I hope this helps,Jacob

Go ahead, and buy it. It works as it should.
Great bag. This is the second bag from clc, that i have purchased for work. I repair forklifts for a living. I am constantly hauling my tools from customer to customer, in and out of my work van multiple times a day. I put this bag on a dolly, and haul it to the trucks location.I have all standard mechanics tools, and then some. The first bag was an 18″ clc (the one with the light on handle) that one lasted over 2 years of heavy use. This bag i would expect the same. I decided to go larger this time because my socket racks were just a tad long for the smaller bag. They fit perfectly in this one.I like the solid handle, and hope it will withstand the abuse I will be putting it through. I try and keep the bag below 50 pounds (work requirement). The pockets are plenty, and seem to be sized pretty good.This bag is worth the money.

High quality
Needed something to carry all of my fix-it tools to take to my daughters house for all the daddy-do lists. It works great! Lots of pockets and compartments for just about everything I typically need. Itâs well balanced and easy to carry with a comfortable padded handle and a nice shoulder strap as well. I highly recommend it.

I’m in the HVAC field and needed a new bag for installation tools. It works, pocket will fit large straight snips, flaring block and yoke, tubing cutters, bit kits, socket sets, hammers, 3 pipewrenches, pipe wrench extensions, 2 large crescent wrenches, bar folder ect – and hasn’t disintegrated yet so that’s a good sign.Well balanced with a decent handle, nice outside pockets and the divider is a nice touch. I’d buy another if this one breaks. EDIT: Coming up on a year of use two of the outside pockets had a hole in the bottom that is working its way to the main pocket. I lined the pockets that ripped with sheet metal as it was because i was putting away precision screwdrivers aggressively. I wrapp-tied the bottom together and it’s been fine again since. The side pocket is a good size but feels like it could use 2 of the clear sided ones, without the plastic involved. Overall still cool bag

The tape measure clip broke upon first use (may have already been broken.)The second fastener came off with a light pull.The same fasteners were used for the handles, so I don’t have too much faith in them.Probably not worth the price.
