Project Source 4 -Pack Commander Large 27 -Gallons ( 108 -Quarts ) Black and Yellow Heavy Duty Stackable Tote with Standard Snap Lid
Hello, is it 100% water proof? I ask because it sure don't look like it is, due to those pass-through hole in the lid?

It states water resistant, but they are not water proof. While they may keep some water out, it isn't sealed to keep all water out.
Was this Answer Helpful ?No, I keep them outside. If it rains, and it's windy, contents may get wet
Was this Answer Helpful ?No, I found out the hard way -- put my Christmas lights in them and put the totes in my shed that apparently has a roof leak. The sterilite totes that I had in there that feature a lip over the edge didn't get water in them but these were full of water. Keep them out of the elements, otherwise they are great totes for indoor/garage storage.
Was this Answer Helpful ?Only containers with rubber gaskets are rated as waterproof. “Weather Resistant” is the best that any company will guarantee otherwise. That being said, if you stack these above the typical “splash zone” (14” off the ground) and strap or zip tie the through holes, you can get pretty good protection from these...the rim acts as a good drip edge... It’s the splash back from puddles on the ground that will get ya...even my job box gets yet inside if you stack stuff against it... Even in a quick deluge and you should be alright...
Was this Answer Helpful ?You are correct, this product is not designed to be waterproof.
