Galvanised Metal Mop Bucket 15L LTR Litre Capacity Silver Zinc Heavy Duty Cleaning

The bucket is good and what you would expect from a bucket but the packaging is inadequate as it consisted of a black bin liner with a label on so the bucket arrived quite badly dented, but after several emails to the supplier and several some photos showing the damage they gave us a partial refund

Plastic buckets have an awful habit of breaking so I tried a metal bucket.This one is a good little buy. It works and looks nice, arrived quickly and without any dents which I noted had been a problem for some users.The bucket is small as is the wringer but it suffices for the purpose and I do use a large mop head. The fact that it was smaller than I expected is the reason for the 4 stars.I would recommend this product.

Sturdy, classic design, hasn't rusted after several months and you can really lean your weight on the mop when wringing it out and the bucket stands firm. Perfect.

Thin galvanised steel compared to my last purchase several years ago at a cheaper price, flimsy & poorly finished by comparison.I don't see the wringer lasting particularly long under pressure.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>UPDATE NOV 2016: we are 6-7 months into use & this is dying on its feet, luckily we have since found the original brand we had a really long life from last time, for less, ...needless to say we'll start looking for a replacement as soon as this gives up the ghost& we move onto the next bucket, lest we have to buy something like this again, it just isn't worth it.Therefore we will remove the 3 stars down to 2 because it should last longer than this!>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Where the handle ends turn "upward" it is minimal, beware this may catch or rip clothing or flesh if an animal rushes by!Why did we purchase this item? ..having gone through numerous plastic vileda type wringer buckets they all break under pressure, ...so resorted to traditional galv steel construction, now after a few years of 24-7 use it is burnt out, so this has been purchased as a replacement.Whilst not as good it will carry us through till we finda decent one, ...regardless of my thoughts on it, this will last longer than a plastic vileda type bucket.Context: we mop after our dogs (paws) 6 or so times per day so the wringer does get ...."wrung" our useage my differ from yours.We use "commercial mop & head, decent aluminium compared to rather short lived thin pressed steel... IF you want a mop / bucket combination that can be used to a high degree then expect to pay between £5 -£8 for a proper one, typically they have interchangeable heads across the producers & are simple to bleach soak & wash (after removal).Back to the mop bucket: last word, ..IF you empty & swill with clean water after each use your mop bucket will last longer, bleach detergent is an attacking acid for galv steel (which is pretty tough) ..but if left in it will "burn out" your bucket at a faster pace than normal.

After 3 months of use the bottom of the bucket is rusting. The seller will neither replace or refund money as it's out of their 30 day guarantee. I suggest that the bucket isn't fit for purpose.

rusted too easily

Good bucket although when squuzing a mop out the water at the top of mop only partially drains away as not enough hole at top of bucket

My old mop bucket finally gave up after many years hard use ( Leaked heavily though the rusted bottom ) This one seems of thinner metal than the old one, And I was worried it was not really up for the job, But thankfully after some use I`ve found it`s tougher than it looks !
