Pelican Protector Cases are made with Copolymer Polypropylene, using an open cell core and solid wall construction, which is stronger and lighter that the completion. You can tell its a Pelican case by the distinctive "twin-ribbed" top surface. Stainless steel pins are used for hinges and handles. The new Double-Throw latches are much easier to open.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

Exactly what I was looking for
I wanted to take my camera equipment with me on an Ozark canoe float weekend, but needed a sturdy waterproof case to protect it against bumps and (especially) water. I ordered this case, and have been completely satisfied. I had no trouble customizing the foam padding to accommodate my Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi, a 100mm macro lens, a 18-55mm zoom lens, a 75-300mm zoom lens, a couple of spare batteries, two watches, and my car keys for this trip! The fully loaded case floated high in the water when I tested it. The latches took a fair amount of effort to open and close, but this was actually pretty reassuring when risking expensive equipment on the water. It opened and closed easily enough for me to manage while sitting in a canoe on a moving river without losing my paddle or my fishing rod. All of my camera equipment stayed dry and undamaged after spending two full days on the river. Had my canoe overturned, I have no doubt that my equipment would have been fine. That said,...

Very Tough and Versatile Case
When I read the Pelican case was plastic, I thought it would be OK but not as good as aluminum. WRONG! This case shell is very tough and the latches are super secure. Also the Pick N Pluck foam is easy to configure to whatever you want to protect. It took me only 20 minutes to make neat pockets for half a dozen items.
I bought it to protect a delicate (expensive) measuring instrument. That instrument's maker sells a hard case for 3 times what the Pelican case costs and (IMHO) isn't as tough. There's gotta be a lesson there somewhere.
Nice, hard plastic case
We bought the Pelican case to store photography equipment (i.e. camera, lens, etc). The case came with a pick-and-pull foam that allows you to customize it to fit whatever it is you want to store. It is a great case, but my only complaint is that I find it very hard to open and close. About two weeks after I purchased this brand, I came across a very similar case (different brand) that has a much nicer opening-closing mechanism. I wish I hadn't already picked the foam out. But overall, a good product that serves it's purpose.
