Had both for a while now. Both do their basic job ok (match organiser holds rigs etc, bait cool bag keeps bait cool).
However,
a) on both, the zip broke after a couple of opening/closings (I mean the actual zip itself snapped, the little bit of metal that you pull).
b) the little paper labels on the plastic wallets in the match organiser just fall off at random intervals. Luckily I don't write on them.
Not absolutely major stuff, but considering I probably paid somewhere between £30 and £40 for the pair, you do expect it to last a bit longer than a matter of days (in the case of the zips).

It's all down to that wanky metal they use for all them kind of things nowadays, they seem to use the same things for all the homebrand tools at Halfords and B&Q  I use that lagging stuff, lets the hooks try out too. You can also shove your knife in the end to save a bit of space in your bag. No rod bell facility though, I keep mine in a small walnut case, with a brass clasp and a blue velvet lining inside. 2 bags off silca gel keep the moisture down.  |

I must say that I do not understand why folk buy all this stuff. I keep my rigs separate in those semi transparent bags that cereals come in. All the rest of me bits and bobs are in a little screw organizer box which I think I got from B & Q years ago. The cereal bags cost nothing and the little box from B & Q probably cost a couple of quid but can't remember now.
