Ive ve got the LC and would recommend this one, but it all depends what line of work you're in.
Im a boiler engineer and I only need a certain number of tools when on a repair. Even with a few tools this bag becomes very heavy, and I prefer not to always use a shoulder strap unless I've parked a fair distance from the site. I always prefer to just carry it in one hand, but if possible have a look at both at a retailer.

Cheere mate how much did you pay for yours if you don't mind me asking?
 
I've got tech lc. Had for about a year and still going strong after service and site work. Fit spray cans and large items one side and tools in other. Drop of silicon on zips helps. I binned the strap first day
 
Been rocking mine for a year I think now and it's still going strong. You won't regret it and the cost is worth it.

I think your all mad spending £150 on a toolbag. I bought one of these 3 years ago its been through a car crash which did crack the side but it was still ok but yesterday the zip went so I thought i would replace it as it has paid for itself really and works out just over £11 per year are these veto ones going to last 13.5 years? Even the fat max open totes last for a year you can pick them up for £30 so thats will they last for 5 years? I will stick with the cheaper ones and buy a new cheap one when needed.

its personal choice, some people think its a good idea to buy a designer t shirt for £100, or an iphone for £500.
 
I wouldnt buy anything based on brand alone and as far as im concerned veto propack is not a brand that will bring any kudos. I do believe in only buying and using quality tools. Sometimes that means swallowing what it costs to buy well designed quality items. The veto propack I own was £180 it is an excellent tool. And worth the money too me. If I could get one for less or a product that performed as well then I would but you cant buy them cheaper and as yet I have found no tool carrying product better. All of course imho.
 
I've had a stanley tote since I started my apprenticeship, that was 5 years ago now and its still going strong
 
So ive killed another tool bag.......
Thats 3 in three years ish !!!

Looking around the forums ive heard plenty of mentions of veto bags

Looking into them i like the look of the xxl open top.
the 5 year warrenty sounds ace too!

So guys !

are they worth the money ? as this ones 190 pretty pounds.

Model OT-XXL | Veto Pro Pac - Toolbags That Work.

Billy did you buy the veto xxl then??
 
It's the Plain XL. Other side has my pliers, spanners, wrenches and leak spray. Got an OT-XXL as well for bashing boilers only. Every tool does have its own pocket as I trimmed bag down to have just what I needed only hence two bags for different roles. When it had everything in for both jobs it weighed a ton.
If you watch some YouTube vids for bag reviews they have them crammed so full it's a wonder they don't have a permanent bad back.

I think that is the reason that people get through tool bags/boxes so quick. As long as you dont overload them and dont throw them around most bags will last over a year which for £30 is good enough for me.

Yes it is personal choice but not many people I know would buy a designer T-shirt or an iphone purely for work.
 
Well it's arrived and I've used it in the field for a day do far and loving it.... But wow it's heavy empty and it's built to stand the test of time.

I got the lc tech as 99% of my work is maintenance and found this size to be perfect, made me cull some of my tools and put in what I actually needed to keep it light.

great bit of kit and looks the part, only problem is I don't want to get it dirty!
