Jackson Palmer Tool Backpack, Contractor's Edition, Comfort-Design with Optimized Pockets (Carpenters Tool Bag with Rubber Base)

I don’t spend money very easily, I usually deep dive and compare a ton of products before I spend my hard earned money. I did however take a chance with this backpack since no one has really put up a good review or even pictures of the actual backpack. The biggest sell point for me was the flap on the front, it’s the perfect size for my full brim hard hat which is required for work on the waterfront. It’s a pain to find a tool bag that can handle my specific job which is military flushing technician, I need to carry a specific set of tools but as well as folders and proper P.P.E. This pack fits everything and the curved hard shell bottom really helps the pack feel lighter than it is when it’s fully loaded. The zippers and stitching are all top notch and feel sturdy. The 2 free grift pouches are actually very handy, especially the bigger one since it perfectly fits my specialty bit set and work knife. I included pictures of everything that sets this bag apart from it’s very expensive competition, the only flaw I can find is that chest starp is a bit high.

Good quality, zippers are great. Pockets are fine but it's hard to access the bottom of the bag which isn't wide enough for my drill. The big front pocket fits the drill but its not ideal. Bag doesn't stay upright unless the pockets are both completely open and laying down.

As an HVAC technician I don't treat my backpack lightly. I had a Dewalt pack that literally came apart after just 2 years and cost twice as much as this pack. So far I've had it for 6 months. It can carry more than its predecessor an has a sturdier bottom.. I chief complaint is that you cannot unzip either compartment can get it to open flat. Irritating but easily ignored.

This bag is well built and stuffed with pockets! I love the hard plasticized bottom too as it keeps the bag upright and dry. I didn't know this when I ordered it, but it also came with two smaller matching organization cases inside of it! I can't wait to consolidate all of my tools to one place now.

I am a maintenance technician and alwys have lots of things to carry, so this backpack really fit the bill. This tool bag worked great for about three months and then wouldn't stand up anymore. I could deal with that, but after another couple of months one of the straps ripped out of the bottom and is basically worthless now. I do not reccommend this bag.

Let me just start by saying that I hate leaving negative reviews, but I was quite disappointed with this product. After unboxing this tool bag, I was super excited to use it. I work in maintenance and it's nice to have free hands when I'm moving from place to place, so this was a big upgrade from my last tool bag...I thought. I made the switch, got all my tools in the new bag (at least the ones that would fit...it's not the biggest bag), went to zip it up AND the zipper broke. Immediately. I didn't overload the bag. There was no crazy amount of tension on the zipper. I've tried many times to work it and get it on track, but to no avail. I think the bag itself is well-built, but it doesn't matter if all my tools are going to fall out of it. Hopefully the manufacturer can upgrade the design a bit, but definitely make sure everything functions correctly when you receive the product.

zippers are not good open

Well made. Study rubber bottom prevents it from getting it too dirty. Lots of pockets and an insert for smaller bits. lots of storage area for bigger tools too. Took it to the local junkyard and was able to fit two brake calipers in the rear pocket. JS18
