I was disappointed upon receiving the ash bucket to discover that the color is more middle-gray than black or charcoal (as per the description and pictures). Also the paint is very poor quality, it has a lot of bubbles that crackle when you touch them, making it feel like the paint isn't fully bonded to the metal and it will flake off very soon. The only positive attribute is that the metal feels strong.

Would have been perfect if it had a broom and gloves with the bucket rather than having to order the accessories separately. I guess everyone needs their share of the pie.

Looked black in the pictures. I was hoping for something much darker

love it!
