The Toro 43-gallon spring bucket is great for fallen leaves, grass clippings, weeds, plant material and more. It is made from mildew resistant and UV treated mesh-supported plastic canvas, and it has an extra strong sleeved spring for secure upright standing. The four cushioned handles make lifting and emptying the bucket easier and more comfortable. To open or collapse the Spring Bucket you simply attach or detach two quick connectors.

Convenient and versatile container--great gift
»
The clips that hold this container together when collapsed are superior to the competition's toggles and the less rigid stance allows it to be used with a 30-gallon bag as well as a larger one without the bag pulling off the rim. When a larger bag is used and the container is getting full, you can pull it up to its full height so it holds more than it appears it will at first. This makes it more versatile and my son-in-law, the recipient of the gift, could immediately see many uses, from tailgate parties and camping, to inside uses, as well as yard waste collection, its advertised function. I can say that it was immediately put to use to contain Christmas wrapping paper, discarded gift boxes, etc., and did a fine job of keeping our gift exchange area tidy. After that, it contained a couple of grandchildren during play, then helped haul all the booty to the car. It was definitely a hit.
I had to laugh at another reviewer's comment about the smaller 30-gallon Fiskars product being for 'grandma'. Well, I am grandma and I bought the 30-gallon unit for myself, so he's right. This unit is more commodious, but still stores in a small space when collapsed. It's going to get a lot of use both inside and out.

A handy little bucket!
»
I bought this to go along with the Toro Universal Leaf Collector and the Toro Blower. The Leaf Collector doesn't work with this product as it just blows off (a testament to the power of the Toro Blower!--which I like very much). It blows off because it is by definition flexible and you can't tie the collector very tightly. As mentioned in a separate review of the leaf collector (one star-rofl), I am able to use the collector only on solid trash cans and then only when attaching it with a rope--not the small string and plastic gizmo that comes with it. Back to the Spring Bucket--It is definitely handy in that it can be stored in a small space and can be used to collect leaves before bagging them. Three stars is a fair estimate here as I will be able to get plenty of good use out of the product even though I hadn't originally intended to purchase the two "extras" which were offered after I threw the Toro Blower into the Amazon shopping cart.

GreatBucket!

This is a nice bucket. I use it when I am gardening, trimming trees, etc. I didn't give it 5 stars because as you fill it up, if you've lined it with a trash bag/leafbag, it tends to be a little difficult to get the bag out without tearing. Other than that, I think it's fine. I have purchased two of these - one for me and one for my mom!

I don't get it
»
This bag is very pretty and nicely made, but I don't get the idea of how to use it. It has a hard time staying up (the spring needs to be a little stronger). But that wasn't really a problem. Pulling a loaded bag out of it is really hard to do. I have been using a plastic garbage can with some holes drilled in the bottom (lets the bag come out easily) and costs much less. Storage is nice on this, but if you can't use it to do what it's supposed to do why store it! I'll take a plastic garbage can any day.
