Tools and Hardware Reviews of Fiskars 9424 Garden Bucket Caddy
Customer Review: Seeds??? Are You Flipping Kidding Me???
Summary: 5 Stars
Seeds? Why in the sam hill would you ever want to put seeds around a joint compound bucket??? This is the most glorious invention since the power screwdriver! Dipper Doo recently re-sheetrocked The Dipper Den after one too many wild beer bashes in there and put this wonderful cloth product to it's true intended use. With a few slight modifications to the "tool" pockets, five chilly Saranac Caramel Porters were sitting snug around my All Purpose Joint Compound five gallon bucket. Three hours and nine beers later, The Dipper Den was looking, well, I was having a hard time seeing at that point, but it looked great the next afternoon. The missing three beers from my 12-pack were found on the floor spilled. I have no memory of this possible atrocity, but still hold out hope that it was actually me who was christening the new den. What I do recall was me happy as a very large clam making everything smooth while slaking my even bigger thirst with cool, yummy beer. Fiskars has done it again making this home improver very, very happy. Bravo and prost!!!Customer Review: Send this one back to R&D...

It doesn't come with a bucket to wrap it around, so no big deal, eh? I've been to SEVEN stores looking for the right sized bucket...they're either too little or too big. The buckets I have looked at: 10 qt., 2 1/2 gallons, 3 gallons, and 5 gallons. All but the 5 gallon bucket are too small, and the 5 gallon bucket makes the belt loop S_T_R_E_T_C_H to barely meet the velcro attachment . And the hanging hoop lock is positioned right in the middle of nowhere, so it will attach to absolutely nothing, except the handle, which renders the belt loop/velcro enclosure useless. If you buy this thing, TAKE IT TO THE STORE WITH YOU to find a @$#% BUCKET IT WILL FIT! !!Customer Review: Snug fit, but handy
Summary: 4 Stars
This is perfect if you're forever leaving gardening tools scattered all over the grass, or if you like to keep your tools together in one small, tidy space.
More thoughts: (1) The velcro straps loop OVER the bucket handles, else the caddy will fall off. The company apparently assumes that people have better spatial reasoning than I do (smile), so they don't give instructions. A picture posted by another reviewer was really helpful, though. Thanks! (2) It doesn't come with a bucket--you'll need to buy that. (3) The velcro strap seems a bit too small for the recommended 5 gallon bucket. It fits, but even if you pull the strap really tight, the ends barely meet. It seems like the strap should be longer, or the bucket should be a bit smaller.
Customer Review: This is Great!
Summary: 5 Stars
I am very pleased with the bucket caddy. It couldn't be easier, just strap it on to a 5 gallon bucket and you're on your way. No more running back and forth to the garage for tools because I have everything I need right at hand, and more importantly, no more lost tools. I have lost more weeders and hand pruners than I care to admit to, but now they go right back in thier pocket. I use mine for light pruning, weeding, and planting, tossing the weeds and cuttings in the bucket. It also saves me a lot of time when planting flats of flowers. I just pop the flowers out of their cells and stack them up inside the bucket and plant away. I plan on buying another one so my husband and I can both be working in different areas at the same time.Customer Review: Tool Cady

I should have purchased two of these. If you are one of those people that has to make 5 or 6 trips back to the garage to get all of the tools and things you need for a day of working in the yard...this is the item for you. It gets you so organized that you can just work uninterupted for hours. Buy the collapsable rake with this and your set.
