SkywinMetal Can with Lid - Durable 4 Gallon Metal Bucket with Lid for Heavy Loads - Environment-Friendly Metal Trash Can with Lid Outdoor, Safe Alternative to Plastic (2)

I needed a good bucket to pick up our doggo's poo. Bucket is sturdy. Lid sits fine but a gust of wind might dislodge it - hasn't happened yet but a rock or brick will should be enough to keep the lid on.

I bought these for outside. I am a smoker and needed something to put my butts in. They will work for that. They did come dented and that is why I took off a star.

I was looking for a metal trashcan to fit in the under-sink kitchen cabinet. I needed a lid for odors, and because we have naughty cats. This pail with lid fits a standard 5-gallon trash bag. The lid gets caught up on the handle bracket, but that's easily fixed with a pair of pliers. This pail works perfectly for what I needed.

I use the pails to keep critter food stored near the feeders on my property but the tops need to be reinforced to keep the raccoons out. Also, the rain can get in if the tops are in any way bent. They are flat at the ends of the pail and would work better if they were fitted to drop over the top of the pail like a standard garbage can cover. They had only a couple of dents when received but nothing catastrophic. I can make them work but I shouldn't have to.

The can is sturdy and will probably last longer than I, but the lid sits loosely and can’t be tightly closed. This is a problem if your intent is to store pet food or bird seed in a container than can’t be accessed by animals.
