2004: I am a professional carpenter who just recieved the bucket boss mullet buster tool belt today. I have shopped around for a new one for a while and was drawn to this one for several reasons. The set up of the belt system is different from most others and the best set up for me (pockets position etc.) In New England, most of us buy Occedental leather belt systems but they have drawbacks of price (extemely expensive) and set ups are limited.

What I like now that I have the bucket boss belt in hand: What you get for the money is outstanding. The bags appear tough and well stiched. There are a ton of pockets and you can arrange the belt as you like. Lots of velcro to keep everything in place where you set it. tape pocket, hammer holster, big nail bags. excellent all around.

DRAW BACK: I am 5'9" tall and slim and the suspenders (another option I was looking for) are almost useless. At their tightest setting the bags still droop below where I would like them, I cannot use the suspenders. If you are a bigger guy (taller or with a belly for the suspenders to stretch over) this would likely not be a problem. But am am a regular sized person. The belt and inner belt pad were also HUGE and I had to cut them down to make them fit comfortably. I am not happy to have to cut up a brand new purchase to fit.

10/2009: Just an update, Ive had these bags since 2004, the right side bag has finally given out, that is a lot of abuse and use in 5 years and I am buying this set just for the two bags again. They are a tremendous value for the price compared to anything else available on the market, even for the bags alone. I ended up putting the two bags and the tape holder on my leather occidental belt, and that was a winning combo for me. Many will find the suspenders and belt useless due to their over size, but if you can use them, it is an even better deal. After using the bags for 5 years, I upgraded my star rating on these to a 4 out of 5 from a 3 out of 5.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mullet not required!, June 5, 2004

Mullet Buster? Interesting name - great tool belt. I bought this primarily because of the padded suspenders. I don't like standard tool belts which fall down after a while unless you tighten them up well, which doesn't feel comfortable to me. The suspenders put the weight on your shoulders which works better for me. It also looks impressive!

An insane amount of storage pockets are on this belt, and the cell phone pocket on the suspenders (which do come off by the way) is handy. It puts the phone closer to where you can hear it. I used to hate never hearing my phone when strapped to my waist in an noisy environment. Actually, there is a second phone pocket around the waist area, which is handy if you have a cell phone and a 2-way radio, you can protect them both. Clever!

I'd definately recommend this tool belt.

The mullet buster is an excellent bag for someone size XL-XXXL. For the rest of us (I'm 5'8", 180 lbs), the suspenders are too long for anyone but the big or tall. You either throw them away or look for a creative modification to make them shorter which is what I did. For the money it appears to be a great buy, and it looks like it will hold up pretty well. I just wish it had come with the "meat hook" as advertised, and that my cell phone actually fit in the cell phone pocket they brag about (fold-up phones only). You get your money's worth, but just don't expect what's in the picture.
