 OK, but with basic faults.Jan 17, 2010
By Paul S Boyer

I have owned a Pelican case for years. I cannot figure out why the O-ring is in the lid, and so flops loose when one tries to close the case. We replace the ring every year with an official Pelican O-ring, and it is always the same. Gravity just drops the ring out. It usually takes several tries to get the thing closed.
Second flaw is that the two snap closers are extremely tight in closing and in opening. I bang them with my fist to close them, and yank with all four fingers to get each one open. The sudden snap sends one's hand into sharp parts of the case, causing minor injuries (cuts).
I really think that simple engineering could make a better design. There is no reason that the O-ring should not fit in place by its own friction.
The boxes are mostly waterproof, but we tested ours several times, and found that some water did get in if the case was dropped into the water.
The O-ring must be new every year, and must be well greased with silicon grease. Warning: silicon grease is not generally available in back areas. Look in professional plumbing stores in urban regions. Be sure to test your case with weights equivalent to the items you wish to carry in it, to make sure that it will float if it goes overboard. For marine purposes, you need a brightly-colored case. A modest green or black one will likely be lost as soon as it goes into the water.
In spite of these defects, I have used my Pelican case to protect camera equipment when going by boat to remote islands. When you are on a small boat, you should pretty much assume that things will be receiving spray.

 Manufacturing defects aboundSep 07, 2011
By already dead
The first Pelican case I ordered from Amazon had a "O" ring that did not come in contact with the base, allowing water, and dirt to enter. The latches would not snap securely and were loose so you could not be sure if the case was locked. I had purchased multiple Pelican cases in the past and this was not the norm, the cases have been excellent. I wrote Pelican a email and explained the defects to them, I have not heard back. I returned the case to Amazon and reordered another of the same type. I received that case today and it too is being returned because the "O" ring does not contact the base, it has the same defect as the first. I am very surprised and very disappointed. I am also surprised and disappointed that they did not answer my e-mail.
I hope that they can get it together because in the past they made a excellent case.

 Warning: Not as picturedJul 29, 2007
By shirokuma
Just an FYI: The picture Amazon is showing with wheels and a handle is incorrect. The Pelican 1510 "Carry On Case" is the case they have pictured here.
Pelican cases are great. We use them at the company I work at to ship computers around. They have never let us down.

 Pelican 1300 yellow w/foamFeb 01, 2009
By M. Kaveh
Great product, actually picked this up to store my survival gear and keep it protected. It fits the bill! Bright yellow to make it easy to find in case of emergencies. 4/5 Because of the price....although the price dropped 12 dollars on amazon a couple of weeks after I bought it, and now they wont even match their own prices (as of Sept. 2008). The foam is very easy to use and conform to any shape of your choosing.

Protect it!Aug 10, 2008

If it's valuable. You want quick access and still know your equipment is safe, this is for you. Photo equipment went down the white water river without a trace of damage or water leakage. Great price performer!
