Inside Measurements Jun 15, 2009
By Brian Holmes This is certainly a superb product. I have four, plus several other Plano Prolatch models.
PROS: -Latches are positive (you know when they are closed right) and reliable -Durability appears very good -Easy to see through -The lid can be carefully snapped off and re-attached
CONS: -Even when inserted properly, the dividers may be loose enough to slide upwards easily. (Perhaps I cut mine too close.) -Difficult to get exact inside dimensions to know if your particular object(s) will fit
LAYOUT: Four fixed rows. The rear three can have 1 to 12 compartments, the front row can have 1 to 10 compartments (because of the latch). These "latch compartments" are double-wide, but squeezed 1/4" toward the rear.
INSIDE MEASUREMENTS: (All compartments except the two "latch compartments".)
The easy answer is to assume that one single compartment can fit an object 1 1/32" left-to-right, 1 7/8" front-to-back, and 1 3/4" high.
So, if you use two compartments, you can fit something 2" left-to-right (plus 1/16" or so), but you're still limited to 1 7/8" front-to-back and 1 3/4" high. I measure that the longest object can be 13 5/8" (for 12 compartments). This discrepancy is because my single-compartment measurement is taking into account the slight widening of the dividers at the very top.
The above takes into account the way the tracks for the dividers jut out into the compartment, and allows the space between them to be just wasted space. If your object is kept to 13/16" left-to-right, then it can be somewhat bigger, 2 1/16" front-to-back.
The two "odd" latch compartments: they are basically each 2-compartments wide (can't subdivide), with the compartments' front-to-back measurement reduced by 1/4", to 1 5/8".
At our house, these Plano organizers are used to sort and store small LEGO pieces and to store the usual hardware (screws and other fasteners, cup hooks, cable ties, etc.). For LEGO, it's very convenient to be able to remove the lid, but we also found out that a divider can slide upwards if you let your finger drag on it when removing a part. That would allow the sorted pieces to mix... I'm quite sure I can resolve the problem by adding some extra friction somehow.

Plano tackle box Oct 28, 2008
By S. Beatie
"Amazonite"
I use these tackle boxes to keep my rock and crystal collections. It is perfect for this. I can easily size dividers to fit my different sized rocks and crystals. Easy to label dividers as well as see through the box. Highly recommend these plano for this purpose.

great for Carcassonne Feb 21, 2012
By cps Holds my Carcassonne +5 expansion set with room to spare. Nearly perfect for this use - the only issue is the scoreboard is a little too thick to sit on top of the dividers, so the top bends slightly when I close it (I guess this means the dividers are flush with the lid, which would be a good thing for most people).

Great storage for electronics Dec 18, 2011
By J. Phillips I use this for my random electronics, ICs, jumper wires, etc for my Arduino projects. The separators are full height, so I don't have to worry about items shifting if turned over. great value!

Betcha One Is Not Enough - You'll Eventually Want More. Mar 01, 2011
By Fred Anonymous Smith I currently have sixteen (16) of these Plano Prolatch 3700 utility boxes, stuffed full with nails, screws, nuts, bolts, washers, and similar for my home woodworking shop. None have failed me yet, even with those surprisingly heavy loads. In fact, no sign to wear to even suggest they might fail anytime soon.
When they first arrived, the latch on one box wasn't really tight enough to securely lock the lid. This was resolved by removing the latch (pops off with considerable force outwards), applying a little heat to soften the plastic, and increasing the curve in the latch. This decreased the space between upper area of the latch where it attaches to the lid and the lower area of the latch where it engages the lock tab on the box. The problem on this box has not returned, and all the other boxes also still lock securely.
Each storage box comes with enough dividers to split the box into the maximum number of compartments listed in the product description. If you lose some of those dividers or need to divide the box even further, the company (Plano) will provide small quantities of extra dividers at no additional charge. See the FAQ's on their website for more details.
Since these boxes have served me well for some months now, I just ordered another ten (10) to replace a worn out drawered cabinet holding my electronics parts collection (resisters, diodes, switches, knobs, wire connectors, etc). The customizable compartments virtually ensure those parts will fit inside well.
