Can the reinforced handles really withstand heavy loads?

Troubleshooting
Tub feels too heavy to carry when full
Always use both 'golf ball' handles to distribute weight evenly across both hands. For extremely heavy loads, consider partially emptying the tub or enlisting assistance.
Tub loses its original shape over time
The tub is designed to be flexible; minor deformations are normal. Its ribbed sides help maintain strength. For significant shape changes, ensure it's not being consistently overfilled beyond its capacity or stored under prolonged heavy compression.
Difficulty cleaning tough stains or odors
For best results, clean the tub immediately after use. For tough stains or lingering odors, use warm soapy water with a stiff brush. A mild bleach solution can be used for sanitization if necessary, followed by a thorough rinse.
