After testing this case with my Dewalt DCG413B grinder (and even a knockoff brand!), I'm blown away by its Pelican-case-level durability at half the price. The moment you lift it, the thick PP shell and reinforced hinges scream 'job-site ready.' My favorite detail? The slide-to-release latches – no more pinched fingers like with tension-fit competitors!
The foam magic: Unlike generic pluck foam, this comes with layered polyethylene inserts precisely die-cut for Dewalt grinders. My corded Milwaukee slid in snugly after removing just one foam layer – bonus points for the leftover pieces stored underneath for future customization. Shake test? Passed violently – zero tool rattle.
Real-world perks: During a rainy roof job, the IP67 rating kept my grinder bone-dry while the exterior shrugged off concrete dust. The battery compartment fits two 20V packs (though FlexVolt users – it's a tight squeeze for dual batteries). Pro tip: The empty space under the foam perfectly stores cutoff wheels and wrench sets.
Gripes: At nearly $50, it stings knowing the case costs almost as much as budget grinders. The yellow/black scheme screams 'steal me' on chaotic worksites. While marketed for Dewalt, my Bauer cordless also fit after minor foam adjustments – versatility FTW!
The verdict: For tradesmen who treat tools like gold, this is a bombproof investment. DIYers might balk at the price, but that waterproofing and customizable foam justify every penny when your $200 grinder survives a truck bed monsoons.
