This is a very good little dry box for boating/camping use
This is a very good little dry box for boating/camping use. However, it is smaller than I thought i would be. The dimensions are clearly stated, and they are accurate. I just wish the bottom was a little deeper with a shallower lid. This would allowed me to use more of the volume easier. No star deduction, because this was apparent with the pictures and description.I would not say this is waterproof. This is a dry box. When used in conjunction with silica packs, this should keep your stuff dry in a humid environment such as a boat compartment. It floats. As long as you dont submerge it, it should keep your stuff dry. It probably will be ok for a quick dunk. However, do not expect it to keep water out if you keep this under water. This is a dry box, not a waterproof box.Overall, the box seems to be good quality. The hatches, general material, etc., are all good quality for this price. Mine did have a couple scuffs on it, but that really doesnt take away from the product. This is going to get dinged up pretty good in my use, so I feel that it it pre-broken in. I have no complaints on that.The compass is a POS. Lol, seriously, a magnetized needle on a leaf in a plastic cup full of water would work better. If you buy this, do not expect anything out of the compass. It is decoration only. This was my expectation going in, and the compass met that expectation.There is a reflector on the bottom. It is something, though not a replacement for an actual reflective mirror when in distress.This box could work for many things. I use it for a med kit for boating use. You can fit a small first aid kit, plus a few extras. You will have to be creative in how you pack it. Because the lower part is so shallow, it is difficult to keep things where you want them. It ends up being easier to put it all in a bag and then place it inside. Too many loose items and it will be hard to close the lid.Overall, I am happy with the product. I would buy this again. Although, since I already have this one, I would probably get the larger one on a second purchase for boating use.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good value. Sturdy and compact.
Reviewed in the United States on November 9, 2010
This is a decent little dry box. It's not very big, so keep that in mind if you're considering this product. Personally, I was looking for a good portable dry box to store ammunition in without it getting too heavy, and this fits the bill. It's not ballistic by any means, but it is quite sturdy (I'm 175lbs and it supports my weight easily). The three clasps are also very sturdy and should definitely ensure that the box stays closed.

It's also stackable; there are four little feet on the bottom that match up with the grooves on the top to provide some extra stability when stacking. This would prevent it from sliding around side-to-side, but it looks like it would still slide around considerably lengthwise since the grooves on top run all the way to the edge of the box on both sides. However, I can't really test this out since I've only purchase one so far.

There are several places on the box where you can attach additional fasteners, ropes, or straps. There are two small padlock holes on the front of the box -- one on either side of the front clasp -- that you could use to connect a makeshift handle out of 550 cord or something. Also, on either side, there are two slightly larger holes (about 50% larger) that can handle something a little more substantial than 550 cord. Right next to these (and adjacent to the clasps on the sides) are a pair of 1 inch slots that can handle a nylon strap. One thing that's a little disappointing is how small the padlock holes are -- you'd only be able to use a very small lock. It would be nice if the two larger holes on the sides could also be used with a padlock, but they do not secure the body to the lid.

I'm able to fit 600 9mm rounds plus 300 .22 rounds in this box. I unboxed the ammo and divided it all up into small plastic bags instead -- 50 rounds of 9mm ammo per bag and 150 rounds of .22 ammo per bag. This way I'm not confined by the dimensions of the ammunition's packaging, so I'm able to fit more in. An added bonus is that the ammo is now doubly protected from moisture. I put the fully loaded box on the scale and it came in right at 20lbs, which is plenty manageable. With this load, there is still a bit more room in the box since the lid extends up about another inch or so. I could probably fit at least 50 more 9mm rounds in there, and definitely a map or some other kind of small folded up document.

I'm adding a few pictures, so check them out for a better visual of this product.
