NANUK 945 Waterproof Hard Case with Foam Insert - Black

I purchased one of these back in 2011 when a well-known airline trashed one of my Underwater Kinetics (UK) cases. The airline was very generous, though, and gave me a voucher to replace it with the closest product, since UK no longer makes the model I had. The NANUK 945 was the closest match I could find in both size, construction, weight, and price. The latches have been fantastic for three years of international travel and extended stays overseas in hot, humid climates. I recently purchased a second one. That should tell prospectivebuyers all they need to know about how sturdy and long-lasting these cases are. My first one survived three years of getting thrown around by baggage handlers and being left atop baggage carts in the blazing sun. Excellent product.

Another fantastic waterproof hard case. I bought the Nanuk 945 Waterproof Hard Case to protect my Crane 3 Lab gimbal. I use the gimbal for real estate videography, and wanted to make certain I could transport the gimbal in all weather conditions. Since I operate in south Florida, rain is a constant issue. The Nanuk 945 is the best solution to protect my gimbal. If there were a 10 star rating I would want to give the Nanuk 945 20 stars! I also have a Nanuk 950 for my camera gear. Nanuk hard cases are outstanding, and I highly recommend them!

I had recently purchased an alienware m17x r3 laptop and needed a case large enough to fit my laptop, power brick, mouse + pad with enough room to spare for cushioning to protect my investment. After searching many hours I'd almost settled on a pelican case when I found this one. The tear away foam interior gave me the ability to customize the case for each of my parts so I could make it into exactly what I needed it to be. The latches are a positive lock and will not come undone unless you depress the release latches to open them. I also like the ability to lock it which I do. What I don't like is that there are only two holes on the top of the case for either locks or the shoulder straps but not both so I have to remove the lock(s) before I can attach the shoulder straps. I wish it had provisions for the shoulder straps while keeping the locks in place. If you've got a large laptop and need something that will carry all of your hardware in a protective shell then consider this unit.

Great product to protect your important products (cameras, guns, laptops, etc). Very sturdy and great value compared to other brands that have same use.

When I need to carry my sensitive equipment from job to job, this case fits the bill. The equipments varies in size from as small as a AA battery to a 10" color LCD. With the "Pick-n-Pull" cubed foam, I was able to layout and organize everything exactly as needed. The foam is pre-stamped in 1/2" squares that are easy to separate with a knife or scissors but stay tight together if left untouched. If you only need a few cases laid out the same, this is a great alternative to the custom cut foam jobs.

This item was purchased to fit my Alienware M17x R3 and protect it from the love, or lack of, from aircraft baggage handlers and the harsh environments I fequent in interesting airframes around the world. Well my Alienware certainly fits and then some! So I also have my Sony MDR-1RBT headphones, Alienware mouse, all cables and surgprotector all snugly held in place with the customisable foam, which works a treat once you work it out. Also can slip my iPad in and its cables! Total weight is 11.6 kg fully loaded and the catches on the latches are a nice touch in order to stop accidental opening of the latches. There is also the automatic air pressure relief valve. An excellent buy for the price and looks good to!

This is a fantastic case for the price. The latches are great! It feels nice and strong. About the foam, not sure what everyone else’s issue is but this was probably some of the easiest pluck foam I have used. Not sure if this is a lack of experience issue for the other folks, but the foam is just fine. I use a grape fruit knife too get the top part loose then just reach in and grab the rest out. Works like a charm.

Fit the bill perfectly for providing a secure protective case for valuable and sensitive optical equipment.

The picture of this case on Amazon doesn't do it justice. The fit and finish of this case is amazing and it looks much cooler in person than I expected. This case is definitely overkill for even the largest of notebooks if you are of the mind to use it for that purpose but you will be able to hold tons of stuff in addition to it if you wanted to go that route. If you have a very valuable PC that you travel with through less than ideal conditions then you won't be disappointed. I don't see any way the contents of this case could be damaged by shock, period. You could throw the case into a river and collect it downstream and it would probably be just fine. The main things I liked about this case are: 1) Made in CANADA! Really happy to see a high quality product like this manufactured right here and am equally happy to support such companies. 2) The latches are easily the best designed latches that I've seen on a hard case so far. Really fast and easy to fasten and unfasten while still leaving next to no chance that they will unlatch by mistake. Really, I can't stress how much I like the way they designed the latches. 3) The lid has a stay built into it, so when you open it it positively locks open until you definitely want to close it by exerting some pressure. Really good idea. 4) The handle at the top which lets you carry it like a suitcase is very convenient and also has a stay built into it that both keeps it locked down during transport and locked up when you want to move it. Some other designs are spring loaded to keep handles down only through the spring action and are not as convenient to put down and pick up again since the handles will retract as soon as you put the case down. I prefer this method of choosing the position you want and having it stay there. The only downside is, for the money, it really should come with the shoulder strap as standard but you do need to purchase it separately and IMO is overpriced. I am tempted to knock a star off because of the lack of the shoulder strap which is a natural thing for this shape of case to have and would have put it over the top if they had included it but I suppose nobody else includes it either. I'll definitely look at other Nanuk products if I have a need in the future, this case is worth your consideration if it's the right size for you.

RESISTENTE Y SE ADECUA A LO QUE QUIERAS TRANSPORTAR

Nanuk is a great brand and the price for this one was perfect. The cube foam is a little more difficult to pluck than other brands so I use a soft plastic knife to remove one full piece of foam. Once you can get your whole hand down into the foam and pluck an entire piece from the middle outwards, it’s pretty easy. Getting started on the plucking is the hardest part and most people try and pluck from the top upwards, when you should really pluck from the middle of the cube outwards (far easier). Other than the foam the case is excellent, it’s very robust and offers excellent protection.

Très bon produit pour celui ou celle qui désire apporter une panoplie de caméras, objectifs et accessoires tels flash et posemètre. lourd mais sécuritaire. Facile à configurer sur différents paliers (épaisseur des objets). Fermoirs étanches. Idéal pour une journée de shooting en nature (sauf en kayack) ou en événements.

Case is excellent, but I don't like the foam for my purposes, it's too soft.
