They stack, but don't interlock.
I never understood interlocking boxes, they then become so heavy you can't pick em up.There are a few bargain big blue systainers on ebay.

I think they're more for trades. It means they can be wheeled safely together on and off site. You can also secure them to the inside of your van locked together to be more secure. Etc.
Also I don't think you'd lift 4 or 5 in one go, but 2 together might be useful.

Are you happy with the clamps and do you think they work for bending or cutting mudguard struts for instance ?
@platypus: I'm on mobile atm so I haven't given an in-depth look to it, but it seems that the Auer products don't interlock or can't be put on rails (they do have a drawer unit with trays for the boxes but I'm not sure how modular that is).
The SYS-MFT pictured above is also a big selling point for me tbh, as I'd like to slowly get into woodworking, with the ultimate goal being cabinet-making. Not sure how realistic that is given my situation but it seems that a pair of SYS-MFT would make a decent stowaway workbench from the reviews I've watched.
@hugo7: yeah I've been oriented towards the Packout or TStak system, but they're minging 😅 and I wasn't able to find them for less than Systainers in France. Systainers are at least neutral, esp. if I replace the handles (I know Tanos' are blue, but I want Systainer 3, and the only ones I can find in France are Festool-branded).
