3.0 out of 5 stars Here's how to make a better handle cheaper, May 3, 2004

I bought and love the Bucket Boss, but I immediately found the need for something like this product, since it was quite painful to carry a bucket loaded with tools even a short distance. I decided to write this review when I was that with shipping the cost will be $14.98. Here is my solution:
Buy some foam pipe insulation tubing (it usually has one side at least partially slit). Cut the tubing to the length you want for your handle. Secure the tubing with ratchet ties (and trim the so that the excess tab is removed). Finally cover the tubing and ratchet ties in duct tape. Even if you have to buy all of these items it should cost you less than buying this handle. You'll also have some pipe insulation, ratchet ties, and duct tape to use on other projects. I made my handle over a year ago and with regular use it still holds up.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good idea -- take it a little further, December 8, 2000

This wide rubber handle definitely makes a big difference when lugging a heavy bucket of tools. Unfortunately, the concept is not fully developed. This is just a molded rubber tube slit along the bottom so you can fit it onto the bucket handle. Since there is no provision for latching it once installed, you'll find that you often pull it off of the bucket handle. A couple of button snaps molded into the split would do the trick...give it some thought Duluth Trading

How simple! It works wonders on cushioning the carrying handle when you have your Bucket Boss loaded! My wife even can carry a full bucket with this handy item. She thought the next time she goes to get a 5 gallon bucket of paint, she'll use the Bucket Grip to lug it to the cashier. I found the opening slot goes on the "UP" portion of the rubber grip and stay tight around the hard plastic original handle of the bucket. I'll probably just apply a piece of duct tape if it ever does start to loosen up or fall off. I like this item!
