This review is from: Stansport Collapsible Utility and Camping Bucket (Misc.)

Now that I have used this bucket over several months, several hikes and a few camping trips, I am happy to say I am pleased with it.

I was apprehensive about buying a bucket with a "vinyl" handle - figured it couldn't take the stress too long, but have been pleased with it.

My 12 year old son carries it full (between his legs, sloshing and bumping it and is not too careful with it), and I have carried it to the brim several times. The handle held up.

The only thing about this bucket is this - if you plan to have it sit around with water in it, rig up a stick (branch) system where the handle is held by the branch. It will fall over and dump its load if you don't do this. It doesn't have to be a support system that holds weight - just sturdy enough to maintain the handle above the bucket.

It's light enough for backpacking and is used all of the time for this as a supply point for my Katadyn water purifier (I full the bucket and then pump from the bucket). Because this bucket is used for fresh water supply, I never used it with soap or chemicals, so I have no idea how they may impact the durability of the vinyl. I also pack it out of sunlight.

I tried all different types of collapsable buckets over the past 30 years but I always come back to this one. I'm glad StanSport keeps selling them. They haven't changed much in all the years they've been making them. Until something better comes along, I'll stick with this reliable old workhorse.

These are great to have camping or even around the house and yard. Cheap, light, hard to lose. Stop using recycled bleach bottles! Every home should have one of these.
