I first bought one of these pails at my local pet store. It is a great bucket that I use for my dogs water. The stainless steel is holding up much better over time than galvanized buckets and of course works better than plastic water buckets which scum seems to prefer growing in.
The first ProSelect bucket I bought is pretty much flawless, however this one I received from Amazon has a couple somewhat minor flaws. One is that the bottom of the bucket doesn't sit completely flat when the bucket is empty. When I first pulled it out of the box and set it on the counter it had kind of a wobble from the way the bottom convexed outward. When the bucket is full of water however, the weight of the water flattens it back out so it's not much of an issue, just something I noticed that struck me as odd that the first bucket didn't do.
The other issue, which is a little more important, is that the handles are not mounted directly in the center which becomes an issue when you go to pick up and carry the bucket by the handle, it doesn't hang level. It causes the bucket to tip slightly to one side so if you fill the bucket to the top, some water will spill out. It is only slightly off center but enough so that it does cause a little spillage if you've filled it close to the top.
Overall, this is a nice durable bucket that serves it's overall purpose as a dog water bucket well. I have one with no flaws and one with just a couple that I thought I should mention in the hopes that the company will keep a closer eye on quality control. If I buy another one, I'll probably try the Indipets Indipets Heavy Duty Stainless Steel Pail, 6-Quart one just to compare.

I had previously written a very positive review of this bucket. But now after putting Clorox in it so I could clean my coolers. I left the Clorox in it over night so I could continue cleaning another cooler the next day.The Clorox ate holes through the bucket and turned brown like rust.
Avoid this bucket like the plague.
I don't know what it is made out of, but it is NOT stainless Steel!
