On the whole Pelican Case 1550 is a very good product. It is solid, protects an eqipment from strokes. Unfortunately, sometimes the Case 1550 is pervious to water. There are just some drops, so this fact is not critical generally. On the other hand, some kinds of the equipment are exposed to risk.

I bought this case to pair with one that I've had for 15 years, and still use. Pelican still makes the very best products. OpticsPlanet gave excellent service at the best price I could find.

I've been using this case for five months now and its awesome. It's large enough to fit all of my equipment and its extremely durable. I am not gentle with my stuff and this case does a fantastic job of protecting whatever your carrying. I highly recommend the 1550 Pelican Case!

These cases are awesome when used as side panniers for my KLR 650 motorcycle. I bought them for my bike and liked them so much I bought my son some for his bike. Not only do they offer excellent, waterproof, lightweight storage but they are so sturdy they offer protection from injury if you have to lay the bike down in an accident. My Pelicans absorbed the shock with only scratches and saved my legs and feet.

Pelcans are perfect cargo containers for my motorcycle. They are waterproof, go on and off easily, big enough for whatever you want to take on that long trip and lockable. All with a lifetime full replacement warranty.

Using these as side panniers and top box on my Honda Transalp Adventure Tourer. Initially was going to go with aluminum top-loading boxes from Happy-Trails but decided on the Pelican 1550's as they were a lot less $ and are a lot tougher than the aluminum boxes. The side loading Pelicans are easy to load and unload if you use some pannier liner bags. I found some at JC Whitney that fit the 1550 cases perfectly, they are on the site as the Raider ZX014871R removable saddlebag liner.

Pros:  Good construction, solid feel, and will last a very long time.
Cons:  Somewhat heavy when packed with items. I suggest the 1560 with wheels
Would recommend:  yes

The Pelican 1550 (no wheels) in my opinion would be used to “store items” and not to be used to much as a carry around case. I currently use the 1550 as a safe in my barracks room. I ordered the 1560 and the wheels on this one make life allot easier.
