WUWEOT 4 Pack Empty Paint Can, Gallon & Quart Unlined Paint Pails, Metal Bucket Container with Lid, Handle and Spones for Paint, Varnish, Craft DIY Art Supply Storage

they are metal gallon buckets with 1qt cans and handles. all come with lids. unlined. well made looks good

Kinda expensive for empty cans, but I guess that's a competitive price. Delivered in a timely manner. If you need a few empty cans these are good.

They are a good buy compared to other vendors. Quality was standard, but one did leak. Credit was provided for the one that leaked. All things considered, the product & delivery was satisfactory.

Great value. Can now mix my own colors with left over paint. And the store nicely.

The other paint cans available online were priced higher and I knew Home Depot charged too much for their empty (Behr) cans. These cans are a little thinner (not necessarily a problem) and the tin is softer than others. You can push the lids on fully with your fingers. What can be a problem is that the mouth that the lids fit on is significantly sunken (recessed) compared to usual cans where you can tap the lids down with a rubber mallet easily because the lid is flush with the outer top when it's fully tamped down. (Actually, this affects the quart cans the most.)But when using a mallet on these cans , you have to carefully angle the mallet to stay on the inside of the rim, so the lid opening is poorly designed even though it works. The quart cans are strangely skinnier and taller than usual quart cans which doesn't matter except that the space to get the can opener in is unusually narrow. I have at least 5 paint can openers that, despite coming in a wide variety of shapes - they were all too fat for the quart cans. This prompted me to grind them down on my bench grinder and they now they work better on all cans. The last few years I found that my Behr paint cans (not empties) (of my most recent Behr purchases 3-5 years old) are all developing rot around the lids! This is alarming and is what has prompted me to have spare cans around. Most rotted lids and openings are severely rotted with black soot dirt all around the lid and all you can do is your best to scoop or pour all the paint out and try to save it. I've never had this problem before and I first suspected the cans but maybe Behr has added some ingredient that has a side effect of rotting cans. I googled and didn't find anything about it. What I have done is now always use two sheets of saran wrap when sealing all paint cans - you have to keep the gutter tops extra clean but I expect this will work good. I've had many old cans of paint that have remained good with no rot of the tin. A couple years ago I started using an approximately 40 year old can of flecto verathane (polyurethane, can that had been full or near full). I thought it was bad and it was in line to go to the dump, but I tried using it on the backs of old dressers and mirrors and discovered it still seems to work great (although I'm restricting it for that kind of jobs). My newer can of polyurethane has been used for the important stuff (several times) and the very day the paint cans (I'm here reviewing) arrived, I just happened to be using the polyurethane for the first time in many months. Strangely, all of the sudden this can had its lid stuck on and I had to completely demolish the lid to open the can - conveniently, I had a new empty quart can ready for use. I have never seen polyurethane glue a can shut like that before. From this day forward, double saran wrap is a must. I have long been using miscellaneous plastic containers for various paint needs and have always used saran wrap to close those as plastic easily glues shut. Finally, I was in an Ace hardware store and they had a bunch of empty paint cans I wish I had known were available. In April, 2022, at Ace Hardware, these excellent looking empty paint cans cost $3.93 for the gallon, and $2.29 for the quart. I think Home Depot is ripping us off on empty cans and Lowes is just a little better than Home Depot. Ace wins this and who knows what bideninflation will reek. Ace sells Valspar but the empty cans are unbranded. They look nearly identical to the Behr cans including the dark gray interiors. The Behr cans that rotted on me probably all look the same - dark grey interiors. It may be, though, that it's the Behr paint that now rots tin (even Behr's best, Marquee) - watch out. Update: I moved the remainder of some white primer to an empty quart can (which I'm here reviewing). It exactly filled the quart can to its inner brim. I soon saw that paint was leaching out of the bases of the handle on each side! Not a lot but it dripped all the way down. I wiped a few times before it stopped completely. This is definitely bad because air will dry paint but since I know about it, I can tilt my other can (with polyurethane in it, which was still fine after a month) so the pin-size holes get saturated and seal. Quart cans don't normally have handles and if you look on the inside you see a metal washer-like disc where the the handles are attached. The gallon cans (for review), however, have braze marks only (seen from inside) where the handles are, which is the same as the normal paint cans from Ace Hardware. While I was moving paint, I also popped open a quart can of Behr Marquee paint that was just about three years old, and as I fully expected, the lid and gutter were already rotting. Not bad enough that I couldn't just pour the paint out without it getting contaminated. I poured it into a new empty Ace Hardware quart can which made it 95% full - I had used the paint only once. By pouring through saran wrap as a funnel, I kept the gutter clean on the can being filled. When I tried tamping down the lid with a double layer of saran wrap underneath, the lid wouldn't close because the seal wouldn't allow air to escape (and there was little air inside to compress). So for now, I had to remove the saran wrap to get the lid on. Soon, I'll have to figure out how to close it using saran wrap. Maybe no thinking is required if some dry paint is in the gutter allowing air to escape until fully shut.
