Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Perfect for the price Comment: The Plano 3630 is exactly what it is advertised as: a deep depth multiple bin storage box with adjustable compartments.
The superiority of this box is due to several features:
1) The box is molded from a 'soft' thermoplastic -- instead of cracking or fracturing the box may scratch or dent, but stay intact and whole. Many cheaper boxes are made from harder plastics with lower elasticity and hence lifespans. This is particularly useful if you are using the box to store heavy/sharp/metal objects.
2) The box-top clamps (aka the yellow things) are made from a tougher, harder wearing plastic than the box itself.. it is unlikely that the lid clamps will wear out sooner than the box. The clips to which the clamps hold are fairly large and deep and should also stand up well to wear. Again, cheaper boxes will wear out quickly in this area.
3) The lid hinge is mechanical instead of being a flap of plastic. This sort of hinge, while not as strong as a metal hinge, is much stronger than the 'living hinge' type plastic flanges sometimes used in cheaper boxes.
On the whole I am quite pleased with the box. While the price is a little high for a container of this size, this box is built tough. Additionally the box is sized perfectly for stacking with others in the 3600 line, which is very useful for people like me who own quite a number.
I store war miniature in my boxes, which often come with over-sized bases donating size. Due to the great depth of this box I am able to fit all but my largest pieces comfortably and safely. I can wholeheartedly recommend this box to anyone looking for deep, tough, and adjustable storage for small items.
