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 it's 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.

Fine quality and durable too.
This is my first Pelican case and will not be my last I am sure.
What I like about this case is the quality of fit and finish, size, pricepoint and mobility. It also fits the carry-on requirement for commercial airlines perfectly.
Nice and tight fit is complimented by rugged materials that handle the couple of mishaps I have had so far very well.
I actually paid about 20% more than the price I see listed here and felt like I had received adequate value and still do.
Listen if I had to give those considering whether to purchase this case one good tip it would be this. Buy this case but with the sectioned liner instead of the foam. I know the foam sounds great but in retrospect I wish I had bought this with liner instead.
Would you believe when that has come up in conversation with other photographers the ones I talk to say the same thing?
Yes the few I have talked with agreed!
See you think you want a...

Great solid case
I just got back from a trip to Yellowstone Nat'l Park; Big Sky, Montana; and the Grand Tetons. In preparation for this trip I bought the Pelican 1510 case and added the lid organizer. All-in-all it was a great purchase. The case easily fit in the overhead bins on both the larger (Airbus) plane and the smaller, regional plane. The handle and wheels worked well and made it easy to pull through the airports. It held a lot of gear - two DSLR bodies, 70-300 zoom, 17-55 zoom, 10-22 zoom, 100 f/2.8 prime, 300 f/4 prime, 1.4 teleconverter, flash, filters, memory cards, extra batteries, and lots of other assorted photo goodies (of course, photographers would always like to be able to carry more, but then you'd have a case that was too big to be stowed in the overhead). The velcro partitions are easy to re-arrange to customize the inside space. The lid organizer gives additional storage for small items (be careful when installing it to make sure the holes in the organizer line up with the...
Great case, foam too flimsy
This case is great and earns an easy 5 stars. However, buyers should look into buying the case with no foam and instead buying a higher density foam.
Pros:
Very sturdy, excellent construction and design.
Durable
Looks great
Rolls well, solid handle
Cons:
Included foam was terrible. It is way too squishy-- not high enough density to really hold things secure and snug. Also the foam deteriorates rapidly if you have to squeeze things into the cutouts you make.
Do yourself a favor and buy the case with no foam and buy some good quality high density foam instead.
However, the case is so great that it still earns 5 stars.
