“Although buckets aren't the most exciting of items, these are good ones. Big capacity and with a sturdy handle these look like they'll last. I got the type with a trap at the bottom (without the lid and dolly). The trap is a good fit as it stays in place when you empty the buckets out, but pulls out easily when you want it to come out. Although listed as translucent they are actually quite clear, the previous buckets I had were actually quite frosted so these are an improvement.”

“We were really swithering whether to give this a one star as it could be construed as unfair, the price of the bucket is fair, but they are really nowhere near robust enough.
I think as possibly a weekend home user they may last, it doesn't seem like the type of wash bucket you could use everyday.
It lasted a week with us and one of our old buckets is nearly 8 years old. Again, £7.50 I think the bucket was it's a very good price for a big bucket. We just think the buckets should be robust”
Hi Kevin, something mustn't have been right with the bucket you received, as we've used these buckets for many years without any issues, both professionally and at at home. If you would be kind enough to pop us an email with details of the failure along with an image showing the problem, we'll be happy to replace it for you.
“I have purchased these excellent wash buckets before, but they are so good the wife has decided she needs them more than me!. So this one was purchased just to hold the wash solution I used to clean my wheels. Being translucent you can see if the wash solution needs changing and how dirty the wheels had become! A good solid bucket with a very decent handle.”
