Excellent milk pail for the money. My only complaint is that the handle mount is welded on the outside instead of seamless. There is a slight bump inside the bucket where the handle bracket attaches. Otherwise, it is very smooth and can withstand daily use, still looks new even after 3 months. A gallon of milk fills this bucket quite a bit, if I were to order again I'd go for an 8 liter bucket instead as it's not much taller than 6 liters. I want the lid to be available.
