Klein Tools Tradesman Pro Organizer 10-Inch Tote vs Klein Tools 55475 Tradesman Pro Tool Backpack

Buy the 5541610-14 tote if you work out of one spot and want the most pockets and the easiest reach. Buy the 55475 backpack if you climb, crawl or walk between jobs and need both hands free. Both use 1680d fabric and an orange interior, and both are rated well by owners. The tote holds more pockets (40 vs 35) and a bigger open bin, but it is heavier at 6.55 lbs and must be carried by hand or shoulder strap. The backpack is lighter at about 4.4 lbs and spreads the load across your back, but its zip-top layout means more digging.

• Choose the Klein 5541610-14 tote if you keep your tools in one place, want 40 pockets and a wide open top you can reach into without unzipping.
• Choose the Klein 55475 backpack if you move between floors, ladders or job sites and want your hands free with the load on your back.
