Tools and Hardware Reviews of Fiskars 9424 Garden Bucket Caddy
Customer Review: Garden Bucket Caddy
Summary: 5 Stars
Well made sturdy product. Organizes your garden tools. Seed Pockets and even a pocket for your cell.Customer Review: Garden Bucket Caddy
Summary: 3 Stars
I loved the concept of having my tools attached to my bucket, but the caddy has failed in execution. Once you fill all the pockets of the caddy with your gardening tools, it gets too heavy to stay attached to the bucket and falls off without warning. I have tried different ways to keep it on, but haven't found anything that works yet with the velcro closure. The other problem is you can't really dump your bucket with the caddy on unless you want to throw away your tools with the weeds. And the caddy is hard to get back on the bucket with the tools in it because of the weight and gravity pulling it down as you are trying to re-secure it to the top of the bucket.Customer Review: Garden Tool belt

It was a nice gift. Very handy for the gardener who has everything. Can't ave more than one of these.Customer Review: Gift wrapping caddy.
Summary: 5 Stars
I got the idea from a magazine to use this for gift wrapping accessories and it's perfect. I keep scissors, electric scissors, tape, pens, hole punch for cards, cards, ribbon, and embellishments all in the pockets. Paper and gift bags fit in the bucket. Just pick up the whole bucket and take it to your wrapping area. Talk about convenient!Customer Review: Good idea, poorly executed
Summary: 2 Stars
This is a good idea that has been poorly executed.
There are ample pockets for your most used tools, and the size of these pockets gives you plenty of flexibility.
For my own personal use, the seed packet storage is a lot of wasted space, which really can't be converted to use for anything other than seed packets. I think the cell-phone pocket is another waste of space on this rig as well. I don't want to be bothered while I'm out in the yard. I'm sure some of you might agree!
Where I am truly disappointed with this product is in it's quality. The materials are fine, but the assembly is truly poor. There is a snap closure on this rig, and when it was made, the snap grommet cut right through the back rubberized fabric, causing that closure to be totally useless. It isn't worth the time and effort to patch the fabric, and install a new snap (or other closure device). The hook-and-loop fastening strap that holds the body of the rig to the bucket is a generic low-quality velcro. The stitching overall is pretty low quality, and less than accurate at the seams and attachment points. Don't overload your rig, or it will sag. Don't remove the rig from the bucket frequently, or it will fail to "stick". Use a dedicated 5-gallon bucket, and leave it attached.
I would suggest getting something like a "Bucket Boss" rig, and adapting it to your gardening needs.
