Git your mind out of the gutter.
That is what the sears receipt has on it. “TOOL, ORGAN MDS”
The label on it says GTO, Great Tool Organizer.
This is what it is .

Except it black and red with a crapsman logo on it.
I have one setup for plumbing and one for electrical.
I like then because you have the big compartment for the large stuff, but two trays and 2 small parts bins for the all of the small tools and parts.
But I learnt that you can load it up to 175 lbs and have the top sticking up 2″ and still close the latches and not have something break.
Noticed something odd on my receipt.
There is a 15% restocking charge if I return it.
I can see that one some stuff, but I have no idear why on this.

It's the one I use and I like it so much, I bought a backup in case they don't sell it anymore when the one I'm using (for 5 years now) gives out.
That is what I got today.But I was pissed that I had to pay full price. I think that paid $15 for them on sale..

Have had one for 6 years now, only mine says Klein Tools on it.
Warning!
Never,ever force the latching handle down on them. You will be replaing the whole thing or using a clasp to keek it close when you lift it..
I don't think they are OSHA approved but my buddy at work weights 240 lbs. and he uses his as a booster step.
We use tose mostly for the "infrequent use" tools. The open bag type with multiple pockets, solid bottom, and a rigid handle are much easier to find the tools in. Just don't buy the large version. You can get so many tools in them that you don't want to pack it around on a job.
Organizing tools by trades must be an engineer thing. Ya gotta make those tools "multi task".
You know, the old screw driver/chisel/pry bar thing. It also spread the value of the tool across sevral trades, thus justifying the cost (G).
"Never,ever force the latching handle down on them."NOW you tell me. That is why I am replacing it.These hold my specialized tool.I have a bucket tool "bag" that I carry all the time.Hammer, several style of screw drivers, including a 10 in 1, A folding "prunning saw" that is great on studs and PVC. pry bars, a couple of small clampgs, vise grips, channel locks, needle nose, nail sets, paint 6 in 1, small adjustable wrench, small level, and stuff like that. Drill driver.The plumbing box has torch and tank, 2 different styles of channel locks, 2 adjustable wrenches, 2 pipe wrenches, fire shield, plumbers putty, small cans of PVC primer and cement, basin wrench, tubing cutters, plumbers grease, wire brushes, toilet shims, a tube of dope, Moen puller, and often some small parts such a Delta single faucet kit and toilet bolt kit.And the electrical is somewhat the same concept. Clamp on ampmeter, tone tracer, circuit breaker finder, staples, wirenuts, romex connectors, crockadiles, coverplate scews, long mounting scews, test lamp with alligators clips, extra screws and balance kits from ceiling fans, coax crimper and ends. a couple of feet of 14-2 and 12-2 when I and replaced devices and need to make up pigtails, and #### like that. Plus a small pouch with the stripper, piers, screw driver, tick tester.So about 90% of the stuff in each kit is stuff that would only be used for that type of job. And it all of the tools needed for most repair type of work for plumbing or electrical..
