The size should be provided in the description. I wanted to find a watertight box for a first aid kit for my boat, and almost passed on this item because of the lack of dimensions. Then I read one of the reviews where the author had used it for their first aid kit and found it large enough. SO I took a chance and ordered it. I'm glad that I did.

The outside dimensions are about 7 inches wide, 6 inches deep, and 4 inches high. I say "about" because the box is slightly tapered from top to bottom. It's actually a bit larger in width and depth because of the latches, hinge, and attachment points for a lanyard. I measured at about the center point of the dimensions, and the interior is a bit smaller to allow for the thickness of the plastic.

This is well constructed box of heavy grade clear plastic with a steel pin for the hinge and solid latches with a waterproof sealing gasket. There is a rubber lanyard on one end and an attachment point on the opposite end for a second lanyard. Warning labels on the box state the item cannot be used in a microwave, and it should not be submerged. Given that there is a sealing gasket, I'm guess the warning about being submerged means not to use it scuba diving - I doesn't look like it will withstand too much sea pressure.

I packed all the items I want to carry for a well-stocked first aid kit and there was plenty of room. Having a clear plastic box means I was able to arrange my items so the labels could be seen from the outside of the box on each side and less chance of forgetting what I have inside.

i was looking for a waterproof box for my camping first aid gear when i stumbled upon this box. reading all the good reviews, i decided to purchase one, but what arrived looked very little like the image pictured here.

the box i received was a dark blue color. while still semi-transparent, i had thought i was purchasing a colorless product. this was my intent, as visibility was an important factor in my choice.

also, had it not been for another reviewer, i would have had no idea how big this box really was. as it is, the box i received is still smaller than those measurements. yet another flaw.

in retrospect, perhaps i received a different product, however i looked at the labels on it, and it would seem i received the 'correct' item.

also, when i peeled the stickers off, they left a considerable amount of residue.

this box may be waterproof, but it certainly isn't as it is advertised. please beware when purchasing.
