Review: Built to Last! - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Storage Solution - Built to Last! I purchased the Rubbermaid Commercial Brute Tote 2-pack and couldn't be happier with my decision. These are hands-down the sturdiest storage containers I've ever owned. The heavy-duty construction feels incredibly solid, and the ergonomic handles make carrying even heavy loads comfortable and safe. What impressed me most is how well the lids snap on - they create a secure seal that keeps everything protected from dust, moisture, and pests. I've been using them for seasonal storage, and they stack perfectly without any wobbling, even when loaded up. The 20-gallon capacity is ideal for everything from holiday decorations to camping gear. The ribbed design adds extra strength, and the rounded corners make cleaning a breeze. These totes are clearly built for commercial use, which means they're more than tough enough for home storage needs. If you're tired of flimsy plastic bins that crack and break, invest in these. They're worth every penny and will last for years. Highly recommended!
Review: Best plastic boxes I've found. - I think these are the best boxes I've found, and sadly, I've tried quite a few types. They hold up way better than anything else I've used, they are thick and relatively hard plastic - but not brittle like most of the cheaper hard plastic boxes you would get at big box stores. These will bend and come back. They are also much more durable than the softer plastic boxes that you would get at other large stores. The lid fits on very tight, sometimes it is a pain to get off, but for most of the time it is a plus. The lids stayed on better in a flood than the Husky boxes with a waterproof seal and 6 clips. I do get a bit nervous with them sitting in the back of my truck or trailer without the lid being clamped down but have never had anything come off - but I usually do tied them down. It is also nice that they come in 3 colors and two sizes so i can actually sort by color and size. Two cons are the price which is high but it does seem in this case (or box) that you get what you pay for. Second con is the handles. These boxes have handles that stick out quite a bit. While this is great for carrying and actually using them, the handles take up a fair amount of space when putting on shelves so you do loose a noticeable amount of shelf space because of this. It is very worth it in my opinion however.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: It looks higher than it is wide and so is 15-1/8-inches the actual height, and what are the internal dimensions.**
A: 15-1/8ths is the overall height with lid on to the highest point on the lid rim. Internal dimensions vary since the walls are flared from bottom to top, and also all walls are buttressed in the middle as you can see from the outside view. Minimum dimensions at the bottom are 12-1/4 x 20-3/8. Minimum dimensions at the top are 14 x 21-5/8. Interior height with lid in place is 13-7/8. The lid is recessed down into the interior, so the interior height is an inch greater if not using the lid

**Q: Is this tote sturdy enough to sit on without colapsing the sides or breaking the lid?  I'd like to both haul gear and use it as a seat regularly.**
A: The box itself is very sturdy. The lids less so. I have had three of those crack/tear along the edge (out of around 50), simply from having a stack of these boxes on top of eachother. Two that have failed hasn't had more than 100-130lbs of weight placed gently on top of them. They seem to have broken when the storage space heated up after the winter (it's a "heated space" so no freezing, but it still gets hotter once the sun starts beating down in spring.) Kind of annoying to find three boxes having fallen forward from the wall and onto the floor, and the bottom one they rested on having the lid fail. The last of the three broke during some fairy rough (but not really "brutish") transfer onto a truck bed, so perhaps less alarmingly.The lids are fairly thin. Not flimsy like a lot of the non "commercial" exercises in pure cost cutting that is for sale. But definitely an area I would make a mil or so thicker if I could, as they don't quite live up to what I think of as "Brute" use.

**Q: Not to be funny, but are the bottoms waterproof for setting in a leaky basement? The reason I ask is because I have seen containers with drain holes.**
A: I use them as reservoirs for a drip feed garden. Waterproof and sturdy, built to last.

**Q: How do they stand up to outdoor use. Are they made with UV plastics?**
A: Don't know about the uv plastic but I use mine for camping and going out to my property about 2-3 times a month and they have held up great.  They seem very durable and are waterproof.  They are worth every penny.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best Tote out there I've found
*by T***T on March 15, 2015*

I'm always looking for ways to improve on things and in this case, transport and storage of my carpentry tools to and at my camp. I bought this 20 gallon Brute tote to use for that purpose and it has not disappointed. It was a GOLD box deal at @ $22.00 from it's normal $29.00 price.This Rubbermaid product is not the typical tote that is flexible and flimsy. This tote is on steroids. It's composition is more along the lines of heavy duty plastic/resin composition, than it is of a rubber, soft plastic material. This thing is rigid, with a very well designed lid that fits snug and completely overlaps the tub part all the way around the perimeter preventing any rain, or other water, snow etc from entering. Of course if this unit was completely submerged under water my guess it would take on water, but when is that going to happen, who's going to do that. Then again they said the Titanic was unsinkable. The handles on this are committed to secure the top lid to the bottom portion and snap in place with authority.The bottom was formed with raised ribbing not only for reinforcement but to hasten wear. You can load this thing up with heavy objects, and in my case tools and the bottom is not going to sag or drop out. The handles on the lid are "through" type and not just lift style, and are situated as to not allow water penetration into the compartment area. These units are stackable, and I believe the top lid would hold another loaded tote but I always use a piece of plywood or OSB placed on the lower totes lid overlapping the lid by a couple inches, then set the top tote on it, to evenly disperse the weight around the perimeter edge of the tote where there is greater strength, if I'm going to store totes for long periods. When I did receive this tote from Amazon in their unbelievable speedy fashion I was overly impressed with the quality and construction. I needed another one ASAP that day and was able to locate them at one of the big box store that is not orange but blue/grey, okay Lowes for $24.00, $2 more than I paid on the gold box deal. This tote would well serve tradesmen and campers alike who like to keep their possessions dry. Keep in mine that there is no molded locking hole to secure a lock which is kind of redundant as a thief would steal the entire unit anyway. I bet that if you were really bored in the winter you could use this for one huge single portion ice cube and it wouldn't crack, as the walls are pitched about 10 degrees. You would just have to find a Manhattan glass large enough. One suggestion for those of you looking to set up natural spring (water) flow systems. This unit with slight modifications with holes drilled, incoming, outgoing and overflow with bulkhead fittings can be modified and used as a "spring box" which is set up within feet of the spring pipe (which is the incoming pipe), then an out going pipe to the larger collection/distribution tank, as I have done.The secure fitting lid prevents any outside contamination of any kind and at the same time allows for removal to conduct maintenance on the unit. No need to spend almost $200 on ones from companies that sell "spring boxes". Buy this unit you won't be sorry. Good Luck..Tom W.
