Tools and Hardware Reviews of Behrens Galvanized Mop Bucket with Rollers, 3-GallonCustomer Review: I don't usually get fooled but... Summary: 1 Stars
You might ask, "how can a galvanized mop bucket be bad?" Well, let me tell you, it can be!
After searching for this product in brick and mortar stores, I realized the day of a galvanized mop bucket had past. I own one that is probably 35 years old if it's a day and it works beautifully. I needed another for a vacation home and so ordered it. The price seemed right and the shipping was just under ten bucks so I got it.
When I opened it, I found that it was defective in several areas: 1. the "foot pad" where you stand on it to stabilize the pail to ring the mop, does not line up properly with the other "ringer" pad." So, this means instead of comfortably ringing the mop, you have to litterly stand directly of the pail while ringing - a major inconvenience because not only do you get the water all over your feet, you are off balance. The ringer pad is so high up that you need to hold onto something else, like a counter, before you can place you foot onto it.
2. The rollers themselves don't line up so there is a one inch difference from one end of the roller to the other, thus, the water never gets rung out properly.
3. The finish itself is so bad that if you attempt to touch the sides of the item anyplace there is a weld or screw, there are sharp bits of metal, and if you are not careful you end up with metal splinters.
4. The metal frame also came in bent in various areas. Since the box itself was in perfect condition, I must assume this is how it left the warehouse.
Return it? Forget it! They don't refund the shipping price, so, I'll not only be out the shipping costs but my cost to mail it back - in which case I'll have spent almost as much as the cost of the item itself, and then I'll have to go through the experience with someone else as well. So, I'll keep it as a reminder that once in awhile you get fooled.
Find someone else to get this from!
