This 6 Gallon Baseball/Softball bucket features a padded seat, great for moving balls to and from practice and games. Color: Black Manufacturer: Easton Sports, Inc. Size: 6 Ga. Bucket Only
Well, uh... it's a bucket... with a padded seat lid. It does what it should- holds stuff and acts as a seat when you need it. I have mine wrapped with the Easton coaches organizer and use it religiously for baseball games. Lid fits tightly, but I can get it off without breaking my fingers (or exhausting my patience). This is not a "thin, cheap" bucket. it is heavy/durable enough to take some abuse- no distortion, no cracks in the bottom, handle is sturdy and mine is still perfectly secured after carrying everything short of Sakrete in it. I have also used the padded lid/bucket combo as a step ladder on more occasions than I should. Even with weight (190lbs) channeled through one foot right in the center of the lid, it hasn't cracked and doesn't feel flimsy at all. It's also pretty much water proof. I've had to endure a couple of LONG rain delays. I took the organizer/wrap off of the outside, shoved it and a handful of mitts and other baseball sundries inside, snapped on the lid and voila--- no soggy stuff to contend with. There are lots of options in the bucket/padded lid combo market. Can't speak to the quality of any others, but this one works great.
***UPDATE--- almost two years of lugging around, and it's still fine. The foam on the bucket lid is still in great shape, too.
You can't go wrong with this ball bucket. Just ...
You can't go wrong with this ball bucket. Just wish I could keep up on replenishing the plastic balls. I might just have to buy a ball catcher to avoid the constant hunt for balls hiding in bushes and trees.
I used this for softballs.. I can hold about 25 balls in the bucket with my glove. Serves its purpose. Had to glue the cushion foam back onto the lid after only a few uses.
This ball bucket is just like the rest,cheaply made and way over priced.And just like other ball buckets,this one cracks and chips on the rings at the top under the padded seat.If your considering purchasing a ball bucket,dont.For the price,you can buy 6-five gallon buckets at Lowes or Home Depot.
