I just got my Pelican 1750 on Tuesday, haven't really had much time to play with it but it is just like every other Pelican case I've owned or used, extremely sturdy, solid latches, waterproof and a great deal if you have good money invested. I purchased some closed cell polyethylene foam from foambymail.com (this stuff: http://www.foambymail.com/PE2-_1/pol...ets-2-2lb.html in 1" and 2" charcoal) and plan to replace the factory open cell foam that retains moisture with it. The PE foam is more expensive, but its also more rigid and really holds its shape well when you cut thin walls (unlike open cell foam that flexes and warps and looks cheap).
