When we realized just how much excess honey our backyard hives produced this year, we needed five-gallon buckets, and we needed them in a hurry. These bucket got to our place in good time to use for collecting and storing the honey, and they are exactly as advertised. Good experience with this seller.

I wanted these to put honey in and not worry about the bucket splitting because it wasn't thick enough to hold the weight.

Let me say first that a lot of the negative reviews are not fair representation of the buckets and seller. The buckets are 90mil thick. Thicker than big box and do it yourself centers. The lids are sturdy and once put on with or without a rubber mallet(makes process easier) they cannot be removed until the plastic strip at bottom edge of lid is removed. This is stated on lid itself. People I believe fail to do this. Also you can purchase a small tool to help in removing lid for a couple dollars. Once the tear away strip on lid is removed the lid comes off. The lid also has what I believe is a very good o-ring type gasket that helps in sealing the lid on bucket. A lot of lesser buckets and lids have a flat gasket that tends to deform after a while. You get what you pay for. These may be a little more but are of a higher quality than those of Home Depot, Lowe's etc. those are .70mil I am very pleased with the quality. I ordered 12 and will be ordering at least another 6 but probably 12. The order was complete with no missing items.

Awesome

Food storage

Good, sturdy containers..gave cpl to neighbors

The buckets seem to have a durable lining inside which maybe why the are food safe. We are using ours for Honey collection, We added a honey gate so be careful when you are drilling into the buckets!

Boy these are nice buckets. So handy for everything. Wish I would have bought sooner.

These are well made and gamma lids fit them with reasonable effort. The lids that come with the buckets are also very nice.

Good quality buckets. Even received a hand written thank you note for the purchase! Much appreciated.

Perfect for stagnant hydroponic growing.

I'm using theses for long term food storage. They seal is very tight. Everything I put in bucket is vacuum sealed, but it was nice how tight the bucket sealed as well. Just what I was looking for.

Like I was mistakenly doing (for years).
