Nice case for running coax into the ham shack
I purchased the 8.6"x6.7"x4.3" SSL version and here are my thoughts on it for anyone using it for amateur radio:I purchased this size so it was thick enough to allow me to run coaxial cable into my house without bending the cable. This worked well and the metal tabs on the outside allowed me to attach it to my house (vinyl siding) easily without any modifications.The plastic didn't seem PVC durable and I felt if I drilled it with a larger diameter drill bit it could crack. To solve this issue I clamped a piece of wood on each side of the holes I intended to drill which prevented cracking and worked great. I also needed to cut a 2 1/8" hole in the back to run a PVC conduit pipe into my house so I could have several coax leads going inside. Again, I clamped wood on both sides and drilled the hole with no cracking issues. Later I needed to drill a small hole for my ground wire and using a small bit with no wood it came out fine.So what's my point here? If you're going to drill a lot of holes in this box to run cables and avoid cracking it use this method to prevent damage.The box itself seems like it will hold up fine. It's winter here and I've had no moisture issues but once summer storms roll around we'll see how well it works. I honestly do not anticipate any issues. I would definitely purchase this box again for future projects. The latches for the enclosure also seems fine.I did purchase "cable glands" which you can find on Amazon. This allows you to run cable and keep your holes waterproof. I mounted them all on the bottom of the case so I don't anticipate any rain water penetrating the box but, again, time will tell. Overall I'm happy with the intended outcome for amateur radio purposes.Last note. I ran RG-8X cable in and if I was to use RG213 or LMR400 I still think it would work ok with the larger diameter cables but if there was a lot of stress at the cable gland I might consider something a little thicker as this case is slightly on the thin side from a durability standpoint.

Works so well even upside down
We mounted this under the eaves to hold the cord for our outdoor LED lights. It is actually mounted upside down. I worried that it would latch close but it holds quite well. Plus it's waterproof so we don't have to worry about a short either. There are several holes from which to choose for the cords to go it.

High Quality, Totally Customizable
I really like the 6” x 6” junction box. It’s a clean looking box and appears to be high quality. I read some reviews that noted two “problems”.First, I read some complaints that the box doesn’t have knock outs to run cables in and out of the box. I really appreciate this feature of the box. The only holes in it are the ones I cut and those are the exact size and I’m the exact location I chose; perfect for a water proof box.Second, I saw that someone was disappointed that the only mounting option is the tabs that, when attached, stick out from behind the box. My solution is to not use the tabs. Instead, drill holes through the back of the box where you want to put screws through to mount it. The tab mounting holes in the corners of the back of the box make a just about perfect guide for you to drill your mounting holes.One screw up I made: I didn’t secure the box well enough to my bench when I was drilling a 3/4” cable hole in the back (with a paddle bit). This scratched up the front and I was pretty put out by my own impatience (I had used one clamp to hold it when I should have used two). But light sanding using fine steel wool erased the scratches and demonstrated how solid this little box is.I’m extremely pleased with the final installation and quality of the totally customizable little box.

Nice box
Update: Below is the original review. Since then, I have received a full refund on the box. This seller is one in a few. No need to be concerned about purchasing from them as they will make it right, even if you don't ask. Thank you QILIPSU Store!!The box I received was obviously a return item as it was missing ALL of the mounting hardware and the clear door had several scratches on it. I kept and use the box because of time issues. The build quality is very good and delivers on its promises. I am vey disappointed in the condition though. I would use caution when buying from this seller, even though I have purchased from them in the past with no issues.

Good for hobby projects
I bought this enclosure to contain a ground bus with coax cable surge protectors for my ham radio station feedlines, and it works very well for that. This is heavier construction than I was expecting for a plastic enclosure, which is good. Good selection of sizes. I would buy these enclosures again for my future projects.It is not clear from the images in the ad, but there are no holes in the enclosure to get cables in & out of it. . Fortunately the material is easy to drill and is not brittle as some other plastic enclosures.It would be better if the perforated back panel were standing off from the back of the enclosure just a bit more, but this works.

Protect me
I got this enclosure to hold my wi-fi router mesh system in my garage as I needed wi-fi signal out that far. It is well made and perfect for what I needed it for. Easy to assemble and lots of room inside to protect my router from dirt, dust , moisture and critters.

Perfect
Simple. Solid design. And weatherproof. I've been cleaning up the outside wall where old unsightly aluminum cable/telephone boxes were installed directly into the stucco 40+ years ago, allowing the outside elements into the wall cavity. I did a lot of research on weatherproof boxes and imo this box offers the perfect and subtle solution for either a new coax (cable TV/internet/broadband/etc) or an antenna demarcation point.
