Product Information
Full details
This AB Tools 7L watering can in white is designed for gardeners and homeowners needing a durable and reliable tool for plant care. Its key benefit is the robust steel construction and comfortable handles, making it ideal for extensive use. A potential caveat is its fixed 7L capacity, which might be too large for very small spaces or delicate plants. This metal watering can is built for heavy-duty tasks, offering a generous 7-liter capacity and features a traditional white finish.

Troubleshooting
Water leaks from the base or seams.
Inspect the seams for any damage or loose fittings. For minor leaks, a sealant suitable for metal may be applied. Ensure the can is not overfilled.
Pouring spout is blocked.
Check the spout for any debris. If using as a planter, ensure soil is not packed into the spout. Clean with a small brush or by flushing with water.
Handle feels loose.
Check the rivets or attachment points for the handles. If there is slight play, a qualified individual may be able to reinforce the attachment.
