5 liters per rim

That's a bucket. Does what it should. The measurements are close, but not accurate enough for critical use. It pours well without running down the sides. I don't understand the translation marks and there are no instructions for it. Attention: 5 liters per rim.

Pros
  • Including mixing ratio measurements
Cons
  • too stupid

Everything seems fine: wipe

holds water, measures the amount of water, hasn't broken yet. Yes, good bucket. Now I just want someone to tell me why all the buckets are so expensive? The price of this one was great for the bucket market. The seller was better than good, quick and hassle free.

Pros
  • containers are solvent resistant
Cons
  • I'm worried

Best price I've found for a disposable mixing bowl

I used this to mix a two part epoxy with mica powder for kitchen countertop sanding. These buckets were strong enough for this one-time job and were the cheapest option I've found at Revain or any major department store. Very satisfied.

Pros
  • Ounce and metric measurement capabilities
Cons
  • Ok mostly, but...

Good product for cleaning floors

I bought this product thinking it had multiple mix ratios. Surprised there wasn't a 1:1 ratio so I almost couldn't use it but I used ounce rulers for alignment - just not sure if it's the same one that works that way. Hopefully the epoxy will set with this use so I'll find out in a few days.

Pros
  • Flat bottom for easy mixing
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Bought for household cleaning

I bought this for household cleaning - I use it to mix hot water, bleach and Tide powder from gocleanco!). This bucket is smaller than the Lowe bucket I used previously and works well for cleaning one room at a time. I prefer this so I can drain the dirty water and mix in a fresh batch of cleaner if needed. I waste less product with this method.

Pros
  • Flat bottom for easy mixing and stability
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than others

Worked well on my transmission flush.

I used 2 of these to measure how much old and nasty automatic transmission fluid went into the bucket to replace with fresh oil. The measurements are accurate and easy to read. They are well made and should last a long time. Now if only I could get rid of that burnt ATF smell in my garage.

Pros
  • Cleaning Tools
Cons
  • Crumpled Pack

Bought for house cleaning

I bought this for house cleaning - I use it to mix hot water, bleach and tide powder (hello Gocleanco army cleaners!). This bucket is smaller than the Lowe bucket I used previously and works well for cleaning one room at a time. I prefer this so I can drain the dirty water and mix in a fresh batch of cleaner if needed. I waste less product with this method.

Pros
  • Household items
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than others

Worked great in my hatches Hobie Kayak

Okay so I'm not using this bucket for its intended purpose. We have a Hobie tandem kayak with 8" twist and seal round hatches in the deck. This bucket is the perfect size to fit in the rim of the manhole rim. I simply removed the handle, cut off the plastic buttons holding the handle, and cut a 1 inch semi-circle out of the rim for the latch to fit through. Hobie charges $25.69 for its 5-inch gear bucket. This bucket doesn't have a snap-on lid like Hobie's, but it's been known not to fit…

Pros
  • Mop
Cons
  • Expensive
