I go with the round bucket cos I don't like the oblong buckets, and the ex paint/adhesive buckets make you look like a cowboy.  ;D
I can remember when waking up stiff in the morning was a good thing.

I like real trad. and so use a galvanised bucket.

Thanks for putting up this useful thread Barry.

I use an Ionics bucket 'cos it's crash tested and four times the price of anyone elses.

Gardiners Xtreme bucket is good.

i like the big one you keep in your van and attach a broom to it washes the windows the house and the garden at the same time  lot of money and breaks down a lot tho but customers love the way it leaves the windows soaking wet as well.

We use posh ones down here, we use "Hyacinth Bouquet" buckets and pronounce them Bouquets

Hope this helps in your search Barry

 i like the round bucket with a lid on it ,cos when you need an emergency dump

it keeps the content and the smell in and stops it slopping over the scrims   ;)
