I can’t imagine they are replacing the orange 5 gal bucket with this!?!? That would be stupidly ridiculous!

it is a nice looking bucket, I’ll give it that. Love the green and black but it won’t replace a 5 gallon pail for me.

madman_usMember since Sep 2014

oh then I should buy the left over at my HD, maybe I can sell them for more $$$ on craigslist since they gonna be rare haha

comp56Member since Sep 2014

oh so the orange 5gl bucket I just bought was the old one?…….cool…..

madman_usMember since Sep 2014

madman_usMember since Sep 2014

I’m thinking chrisk1970 talked them into dropping their company colours and go with the festool theme……

At the end of the video they have three of the handle options from what I can tell are frestool green,sky blue, and silver.

There is no way that is going to replace the 5 gal Homer. That is for the Suburban Hipster homeowner to ice down there PBR 

BigmikezMember since Jun 2013

100% agree with ya bro!!

Chris is going to be there new spokesman. He’ll even do his little dance.

As long as he doesn’t wear the capris, LOL.

 

All is not lost. NAPA frequently has sales where anything you fit in the bucket (mine’s a green clone of a Homer bucket) is some percent off.

 

Lowes also has the buckets in blue, I think.

Neat concept. Concerned about the reviews.

chadlanthierMember since Mar 2013

After reading the bad reviews, makes me wonder if the good reviews are real.

NordrawMember since Dec 2012

They still have the old orange ones. Apples and oranges you might say.

How come it feels like there trying to re invent the wheel?
