Avonstar Classics Range Galvanised Feed Bin (Flat Pack)

Easy to assemble, good quality materials, looks good and feels sturdy.

Once assembled this is a sturdy, fit for purpose bin. It has a good capacity and usefully three compartments. Lock is a bit fiddly. Big issue is panels being damaged in transit. I had read reviews highlighting this and rationalised that I might not be one of the unlucky customers. I was. Assembly which should be straightforward became a prolonged and difficult task as I struggled to straighten corners to enable panels to slot together easily.

Really easy to assemble, good quality, filled one section with 18 kg of feed!Very pleased with this.

Love this water trough. Bought for £135 in June. Looks super smart!If you have a hose on a tap, and need water to the field… this is for you.It saves me so much time on water duty. Turn on the tap, and let it fill itself whilst I poo pick.Just connect it to the point like a normal hose to a tap to install, filled up, boom… done.You obviously need to clean the inside weekly, which is no bother, as it has a fabulous tap on the side to empty the water out.Also, we turn tap on and refill it when we need to, but it has a mechanism like your toilet with a float (hidden) which shuts the water off when it’s full to a optimum level.So if you do switch the tap on, busy yourself with other jobs and forget to switch tap off…. It stops. The field does not get soaked, happy farmer.Or if you wanted to leave tap on, to make it just automatically fill up when it gets low, you can do that also.Not used in winter yet, so will see how it goes.

Arrived well packed, and everything in good order. However, when I came to assemble it, the the size of the heads on the screws provided for the casing were too small, and popped through the external casing as I tightened. Resorted to my stock of washers, and put it all together. One screw hole was badly misaligned and I had to apply some judicious elbow grease. The large screws for the hinges were OK for size, but the alignment between the hinges and the casing was poor, and once again required some imaginative elbow grease. So, once assembled I will be happy to fill it with the necessary animal feed, just a shame the assembly process was not as straightforward as I'd hoped.

Exactly what I was looking for. Very good quality, easy to assemble and versatile ... I shall be using all four as planters for my garden!

Had the package a couple of weeks before I managed to open and assemble it. Poor cardboard package (damaged) but inside sheets are well wrapped with bubble wrap. Carefully unpacked, checked but all good, nothing damaged or missing. Comes with a little padlock but I wont need this.Assembly straight forward enough, wear decent work gloves, some sharp edges. Fixings for base not to my standard so replaced with Orbix self drill screws plus added a few extra for my assurance. Applied a bead of mastic down each corner to ensure rain cannot get in and sat on a firm base, couple of slabs.I am not using as a feed store but an external petrol container store for my mowers. I will of course have to add a couple of vent holes. If this lasts me a few years I'll be more than happy.

Easy to put together. Ideal size. Great product.
