No Vecturo but we get a cooler systainer? C'mon festool!!

What's wrong with a promotional item from time to time?

I actually ordered a cooltainer - who knows if I was on time...
 
I wonder if those cans have built-in liquid extraction ports with tool-free adjustment of the opening size?

;D
 
COOL  [cool]  [bite tongue]

    If the dark color is a problem it could be used for a "Warmer". Show up at a BBQ with a hot dish to pass instead of cold.  [smile]

Now that is thinking out of the box.
 
I have to agree with Skids...$95 for a box to hold ice???? Seems a bit over the top to me....wonder how many engineers it took to come up with this idea....

A Systainer SYS4 is $80.00 so the insulation insert is $15.00 [smile]
 
I am just sour grapes the Vecturo isn't here and using twisted logic to blame it on Festool.

Although there is nothing rational about the way Germany releases their products.

I think $95 is a galactic waste of money on this thing. Unless I were more of a fisherman or a boater?

These type of products concern me. All of their non-tool related items are overpriced and don't benefit anyone except a few nuts who will buy anything and everything with a green logo. If someone wants a cooler, tape measure, socket set, level, etc they can buy it without the unnecessary rebranding.

100% agree.

When people ask "why pay more for Festool?" I point to superior tools for serious work.  This kind of stuff just undermines that argument a bit.

What about taking your lunch to a job site in it? Wouldn't that make it more justifiable? It would certainly be justifiable for tax purposes.
 
It's hard to maintain my respect for a company that continually releases worthless items like this cooler. Obviously people will buy them because they love the brand. Maybe festool should trying actually giving things like this to their devoted customers that already overpay for tools. Festool knows who has what by all of our tools being registered. You can spend 10k and still have to pay for a t shirt. Ridiculous

He has a point..........
 
This would be great with a new sortainer tackle box. I would take fishing to a whole new level.

Hey Skids,

The Vecturo is not available ANYWHERE yet.  It's been delayed until the Fall...even in Germany, so don't gripe yet....it might actually be introduced in the USA in the near future.

Cheers,

Frank
 
Lol funny how people get annoyed by these promotional items. Just like their tools you don't have to pay what they are asking. Buy dewalt, Makita, Bosch or any other brand.

It's costing $15 more than a sys 4 so not exactly a bunch of cash. My last cooler cost me $400 so this one is chump change in comparison.
