Troubleshooting

Bucket does not hold its shape when unfolded.

Ensure the bucket is fully expanded. Check for any internal obstructions preventing it from fully opening. The material may need a few uses to 'break in'.

Material seems stiff or brittle.

This can sometimes occur after prolonged storage or exposure to extreme temperatures. Try gently flexing the material in a warmer environment. Ensure proper care and storage as outlined above.
