Product Information

Full details

The Crystals 26L Drinks Cooler is perfect for hosts who prioritize both aesthetic appeal and functionality when entertaining guests, whether indoors or at outdoor garden parties. Its key benefit is the spacious 26-liter capacity combined with a stylish, rustic design that elevates any beverage presentation; however, the bucket does not feature integrated drainage or insulation, meaning ice will melt faster than in a specialized cooler box.

FAQs

Can this bucket be used as a planter?

While it can hold plants, it does not have drainage holes, so you would need to use a liner to prevent root rot.

How many bottles can it hold?

While capacity depends on bottle size, the 26L volume typically accommodates 15-20 standard beer bottles or 6-8 wine bottles along with ice.

Is the bucket dishwasher safe?

No, it is recommended to hand wash only to protect the finish and the rope handles.

Does it come with a lid?

No, this is an open-top bucket design.

Are the rope handles replaceable?

The handles are fixed to the unit; if they wear out, they may be difficult to replace without specialized tools.

Troubleshooting

Bucket is leaking or leaving moisture on the table

This is likely surface condensation forming on the cold metal walls; place the bucket on a tray, coaster, or table cloth to protect your furniture.

Ice is melting too quickly

Keep the bucket out of direct sunlight and consider adding a layer of insulation like a towel at the bottom before adding ice if the bucket is placed on a hot surface.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Generous 26L capacity holds plenty of beverages for parties
  • Attractive vintage design serves as a decorative centerpiece
  • Sturdy rope handles facilitate easy movement
  • Easy to clean surface after events

Cons

  • Lacks insulation for long-term ice retention
  • No integrated drainage plug for melted ice removal
  • Silver finish may show fingerprints or water spots
  • Not intended for food storage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: No assembly is required. Simply place the bucket on a flat, stable surface before loading it with beverages and ice. Ensure the surface is moisture-resistant, as condensation will form on the outer walls when filled with cold items.

Compatibility: The oval shape is highly compatible with standard wine bottles, beer bottles, and soda cans.

Care: To maintain the silver finish, hand wash the bucket using a soft sponge and mild soap. Avoid using abrasive scouring pads which can scratch the metallic surface. Dry thoroughly after each use to prevent water spots and ensure the rope handles remain clean and dry.
