is this thing too big to put in the back of a car / trunk on road trips? Would be a great "oh $hit" box..

Thanks for sharing. I missed the deal last time but, couldn't resist this time. It came today, shipped very fast. I was surprised to see that it really was made in Germany. I like it. :thumbup:

Wow?! Made in Germany? Any signs of the manufacturer?

Edit: Nevermind, I just saw all the info. Damn iPhone...

Does the box come off the bottom base with wheels? Or is it permanently attached?

No. The box is riveted to platform with legs. The cantilever box is larger than others I've seen and the whole unit empty is not light at 40 or so pounds.

Thanks!

Just ordered one last night... I wanted a Hazet box originally but seeing how I can use this as a true mobile service cart and it being made in Germany were the deal breakers. I still want an Assistent... :D

Came out to 81 dollars since I'm in CA.

Nice and fast shipping.

Deal expires tonight.

Hopefully I will have money to get one next time they run it, if they run it again.

Received mine today, overall it's a great box besides the fact the powdercoating is chipping in multiple spots, the lever you pull is bent, and a few minor dings and dents.

No signs of COO anywhere besides the Nurnberg/GS Safety sticker on the box.

Btw, what type of grease should I use to lubricate the joints for easier opening and closing?

Mine was the same, after i have contacted woot, they have send me immediately a (i think it was 25 or 35$) refund.

All they've been asking for was some pictures of the damage.

Great box.

I have used just some common oil (3in1) and it works outstanding now. Real handy.

Mine keeps chipping... so I just put it in the corner for now. I used silicone lubricant spray to lube the joints, opens much smoother now.

I contacted them, let's see what happens.

Update: This thing is chipping insane... I highly doubt it's Made in Germany, the powder coating is horrible. Is anyone elses chipping? There must be at least 15 spots mine is chipping/chipped. Here are some pictures...
