What is it?

How to identify it
Look for a stable base, deep open body and arched carry handle. It should be shown empty and clean without capacity or material promises.
- Open top
- Deep stable body

A bucket is a deep handled container; wringers, mop-bucket attachments and capacity markings are model-specific and cannot be assumed.
