Ratings & Reviews for Behrens 12-quart BPA-Free Metal Silver/Galvanized General bucket

Inexpensive and built that way.

So, I bought this to collect ashes under my Weber charcoal kettle, instead of the shallow tray that came with it. It wasn't a perfect fit, but the metal is thin and it was easy to "oval" the top to make it fit. For that, it's fine. But... It appears (?) that the bottom is crimped to the sides, and sealed with RTV. I personally, would not fill it to the top with liquid and carry it. I may be wrong, but I see the bottom falling out if you do so.

Farm bucket for gardening

This is a very sturdy steel bucket just like what one would expect to see in use on a farm. I was looking for something that would help me move small quantities of garden soil and mulch so I wouldn't have to lift heavy bags around while working on a backyard slope garden area. I am very pleased with it.

Happy

It's one bucket that serves the purpose for me. .

My wife likes it

I bought this for my wife's greenhouse. I built a garden sink fed by a garden hose. This pail is used to collect the water as it runs from the sink. It looks good in the greenhouse. Better than an ordinary plastic bucket.

Tin bucket

Fully functional metal bucket. I use it to collect ashes and so far it has been fine for that purpose. I have not used it to carry water so cannot tell you if it leaks or not. It will scoop snow though!

Buckets for the indoor crab boil!

2 weeks ago I had 5 friends over for dinner for an indoor crab boil. I needed galvanized buckets for people to put the discarded shells in, so they could continue eating, and enjoy the mountain of seafood in front of them. To be honest, I first went to Dollar General~no luck, they had no buckets, BIG LOTS, same story. I got the "lightbulb" idea when I also realized I needed Butcher Paper to cover the table. I found both @ Lowe's at very good prices. The indoor crab boil was SO much fun, and w...

hot water

These are fine buckets but leak when placed ,full of water,on a wood burning stove.This is my 3rd bucket that has started leaking when exposed to heat.So solid bottom cookers for my wood stove,and these buckets for everything else.

Is great for holding ashes from your fireplace!

I was using a plastic bucket, but melted a hole in the bottom of it! I'm very happy with this new bucket, I don't have to worry about it melting!

Perfect for hot coals and ashes!

Great value! Looks nice next to our fireplace and safe storage / disposal of hot coals and ashes.

Ash Bucket

Got this as an ash bucket. It works great. Five stars would be if it came with a lid.

Great Buckets

The buckets are great. Shipping took 2 weeks, which was disappointing because I can never get them in our local store as they are always out.

Quite a Bucket!

We were looking for something that had the ability to carry both liquid and solid material. We were exceptionally pleased to find this bucket, it is the correct shape for a bucket, has the appropriate handle for a bucket and is generally a great example of a bucket. If you are looking at carring amounts of material that the volume is larger that your cupped hands, I would highly recommend this Bucket.
