The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less.

Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
Most tackle boxes on the market are molded plastic, so a stainless steel build stands out immediately. The THKFISH box uses stainless steel construction and weighs 2.1 pounds, giving it a sturdier feel than the lightweight plastic Plano options in this comparison.
At $39.99, it sits between the budget Plano 23500-00 at $3.97 and the premium Plano 758 at $84.67. That mid-range price, combined with a metal build, positions it as a durability play rather than a capacity or price-leader play. The blue color and steel construction suggest a box meant to hold up to repeated outdoor use.
With 45 reviews and a 4.3 star average, the feedback pool is the smallest among the boxes referenced here, well behind the Plano models with 619 to 1,600 reviews. Still, 200+ bought last month shows real, current demand. For buyers who prioritize material durability and are comfortable with a newer listing that has not yet accumulated a large review history, this box fills a specific niche in the tackle box lineup.
Pros
- Stainless steel construction, a step up in durability from the plastic used in most tackle boxes
- 2.1 pound weight gives it a sturdier, more substantial feel than lighter plastic alternatives
- 200+ bought last month shows active current demand
- 4.3 star rating across 45 reviews is a respectable early track record
- Priced at $39.99, well under the $84.67 Plano 758
- Blue colorway offers a distinct option from the typical green or beige tackle box finishes
Cons
- Only 45 reviews, far fewer than the 619 to 1,600 reviews behind the Plano boxes in this comparison
- 4.3 stars trails the 4.6 to 4.7 star ratings of every Plano alternative listed
- No stated piece count or compartment configuration in the specs, unlike the Plano 1155-03's clearer 1.0 Count listing
- Steel construction adds weight compared to plastic boxes, which matters if you are trying to keep a tackle bag light

Performance notes
Stainless steel resists corrosion better than plastic housings over long-term exposure to water, humidity and saltwater spray, which is a meaningful advantage for anglers who store their box in a boat or leave it in a damp environment. At 2.1 pounds, this box carries noticeably more heft than a typical plastic stowaway tray, which can matter if you are hiking to a fishing spot versus loading a boat where weight is less of a concern. The blue finish is cosmetic rather than functional, but it does distinguish the box visually from the green and beige finishes common among plastic competitors. Because the specs do not list an internal compartment or divider count, buyers should treat this as a general storage container rather than a precision-organized tray like the Plano 23500-00 with its adjustable dividers.
What buyers say
A 4.3 star average is a solid but not standout figure, and with only 45 reviews the sample is thin compared to the 619 to 1,600 reviews backing the Plano boxes referenced here. That smaller sample means the rating could shift more as new reviews come in, though 200+ bought last month suggests the listing is gaining traction rather than stalling. The pattern reads as a newer product finding its footing in the market, with early buyers reasonably satisfied but not yet at the scale needed to be considered a proven, long-standing option the way the higher-review-count Plano models are.
