Gorilla Tubs GORTUB26 Muck Buckets and Builders Tubs, Yellow

Used in the garden for soil and weeds very sturdy and versatile

In practical terms I would consider this a 25L/5.5 Gallon tub, why can't the seller include such necessary information in their description? Anyway that gripe aside it's a great piece of kit. I've used it for mixing plaster and mortar, carting all manner of things around the house (often jam packed with tools ~50kg) and simply as storage. I wish I'd bought one years ago, I suspect I'll be acquiring more.

I've been using this to lug rocks/broken masonry and earth around the garden. The loads are easily 20+ kg a time and the bucket seems to handle them easily (more easily than my back anyway!). It's had twenty or more hours of this abuse and no signs of damage or even much wear. It's also nice and easy to spot for those of us who are a little absent-minded. Great stuff. I'm sure I'll be picking up another one soon enough.

Did the job but overpriced for the item

There are many imitations using this shape BUT Gorilla brand tub-trugs are the original and best. The quality is apparent when you handle it and especially so when it is full. The tub is flexible but not flimsy. It feels as though it will last (and, believe me, it will) It will tolerate abuse although I hardly recommend that because the best is not cheap - unlike the others.

Bought this for carting stuff to and from my caravan. It works very well because you can get a lot in it. It's strong and light, and would work as a laundry bowl or basket on holiday. It's really good quality and I expect it to last for years.

Smaller than expected

This is probably one of the best pieces of kit I own. Currently doing a lot of plastering and mortar work on and off in the house we live in. So i'm using the bucket fairly infrequently.The surface inside the bucket is essentially non-stick to plaster and similar materials. So it's so much easier to clean and keep clean than other plastic buckets I have.It just about keeps the plaster in the bucket when i'm using one of the drill attachments, and can hold enough to skim a 4m x 2m wall.Highly recommended!! In fact, i'll get another one once the other buckets I have rust or get clogged up with enough plaster.
