I like mine, when you get supers off and the bees are everywhere, if you can to truck with not many bees with you and put supers in close the cover no more will get in. good luck

I have one like this:
http://www.4are.com/mobile/product/lsx_ultra.xhtml
In many ways it is great.
You can lock it
Stays dry
Keeps bees confined
The draw back is that it limits storage and acsess.
I think I'll get one on my next truck.
