Nanuk 918, 923, 933, and/or 935 insight (1 Viewer)

[Benjaminotaur]

Does anyone have first hand experience with any of these cases? I know the 910, 920, and 930 are all pretty popular, but I’m wondering if any of these are a little more roomy.

More specifically, how tall can you stack racks in any of the deeper models?

Paulson or Apache style rack info would be most useful.

Thanks in advance for saving me the trouble of ordering these just to have to ship them back if they aren’t any good.

I only have the 910, 915 and 920 and I prefer the 915 and 920 over the 910 any day. I can stack two racks high in those.

I've also been really curious on the 918 or 923 as I suspect you could likely get 3 racks high.

915 Interior Dimensions L13.8" x W9.3" x H6.2"
918 INTERIOR Dimensions L14.9" x W9.8 x H8.6"

With the 915 and 920 I have to either add extra padding on top or an extra tray on top to keep the chips secured.

923 Interior Dimensions L16.6" x W11.3 x H5.4"
This could likely go 2 high without extra padding or trays but may be a tight fit or only allows for minimal padding.

933 Interior Dimensions L18.0" x W13.0" x H9.5"
3 high shouldn't be an issue in this either but with this big of a case you're going to have a pretty heavy set up once it's filled out.

I can get things snug in a 930 3 Paulson trays tall and that is 6.9" in interior height. I am hoping I could go 4 trays tall and 5 wide. That would accommodate most of my sets and still give me space in the front to have cards, jetons, (Maybe an apache rack turned on edge?) and be able to grab one case and go. The 935 would be a perk because it has wheels, although not as tall.....

I would love a smaller case that would go 3 high and 4 wide. I have a lot more sets that run 1000-1200 chips than 800. I might have to spring for the 918 and do some lab testing.

Let us know how it works out. For larger cases I have used the Apache 4800 where I can fit 1200 chips easily but that sucker is well over 33 pounds once loaded up with 1000 chips, 2 card set ups and dealer buttons.

Yeah, the weight is a real concern for sure. I wouldn't really want to carry it very far, for sure.

I did buy their carry strap, which is well worth the money. Well constructed and very comfortable. And that was with 1500 claysmith 13.5 g chips, so it would be much better with Paulsons

Two of the 918s will be on my doorstep this Saturday. I've got high hopes!

Between the two of us, I think would could start a whole series of breakdowns and reviews of these cases, one by one.

What’s your capacity in that case?
