Having just returned from two weeks on the beach in Greece with our two toddler grandchildren I can guarantee that these buckets are an excellent investment. They take up remarkably little space in a suitcase, and were a wonderful surprise gift from grandparents. They are really sturdy and the handles proved capable of carrying a bucketload of wet sand. Usefully it means that they don’t have to be left behind with inevitable tears because locally bought buckets won’t fit into suitcases, and they can be used at home or saved for the next holiday. The only minor criticism is that the sand doesn’t slip out as easily as it would with a standard beach bucket when making a sandcastle! Great purchase and well worth the money!
