Bucket Friend Assorted Colors

We use these on our horse trailer above wheel fender so the horse won't know off water bucket after a ride. They do fall apart or brake after a couple of years. There cheap enough to just buy more. Do wish you could pick the color..

I thought I'd save money by trying out these since they were cheaper than bucket buddies brand hooks which I'd used always in the past. I live near Lake Superior on Minnesota's North Shore. I used these outdoors mounted on a heavy post at just the right height so the rim of flatback buckets were supported by the wooden fence rail to minimize weight as I used them for water. Of the six I mounted, only two of the white plastic retainer clips didn't break upon installing. Two days of gently taking buckets on/off and they broke also, leaving me with just the hooks, now not safe nor secure. But I still used them anyway, although I'd have to climb through the fence to go track down buckets. Its been almost a year now and only one was left useable at all. I have just now replaced them all with BUCKET BUDDIES, not these generic sub par hooks. The bucket BUDDIES brand is much better designed and holds up making them well worth the small difference in price.

I purchased similar clips from tractor supply that were all plastic and I love them. Lasted for 8 yrs so far. However this brand is metal, has no give, and tears your knuckles up trying to get a bucket out of the clip. Hate them. Trying desperately to find more plastic ones.

Have used in my horse trailer for years. Works well to hold buckets of water and feed.

This seemed like a great idea until I tried it. I was tired of my mare always knocking her buckets off the hook, and having to tie them with baling twine. This was in her stall one day before she snapped the bottom right off.

Bought this a few years ago when we kept our paint stallion and a few of the broodmares in the barn. The tabs would not press down so we could remove the buckets, and after several minutes i gave up and broke the tabs with a pair of pliers and got the buckets down.

I got this for a run-in shed for my alpacas. I used it with a 5 gallon water bucket. They had it off the wall within a month. Put it back up and they broke it a few months later. I'm guessing by rubbing on the bucket. I can't imagine it would hold up to a horse. Other than that, nice colors and easy to install and use.

Worked great at 1st but everyone has broke within a month of use

I gave 5 stars for overall & price only because these are a good idea & cheap, but they need to be made with a more durable material. After recieving my blue one I sent it back asap.

A definate must for people who feed with buckets....
