We use our fireplace a lot and care a lot about the aesthetic- we like the black and dark gray granite theme. We previously had this old silver bucket that looked very tarnished and beat up, so this sleek and shiny new matte black bucket is just absolutely perfect for the look we are going for and it now even matches the fireplace tools that sit next to it. The one thing that was better about our old bucket was that when you turn the lid- it would secure so that you could lift the whole bucket from just the lid. This does not have that ability, but it is otherwise so perfect!

This ash bucket came in super handy. Its fireplace season and it is so convenient to just clean and store the ashes temporarily in this bucket. It can definitely handle several fires before having to empty it. The lid fits somewhat loose but that is not a big deal to me.

I was really surprised by this Black ash bucket with a lid. I really like because it’s kinda heavy and it’s not thin metal, should be able to handle hit ash. The lid and handle are very nice also, handle is very sturdy.

Good quality! I was impressed by the size and sturdiness of this ash bucket. It will not tip over while loading ash and the lid fits heavy to reduce any ash spills. I like the metal handle with its wood grip. We’ll use it for fireplace or barbecue grill cleaning. Would recommend to a friend

I had intended this unit to be an ash bucket, but Granny gave us an antique ash bucket a couple of days before I received this bucket. However, I have found a great use for it. It works great as my cat food bucket. the lid is heavy, so it hold on securely. It fits a 22lb of cat food ad a smaller 3.5lb one. The cats can not get into it. I am very pleased. This bucket has multiple uses. Use your imagination. :)
