FAQs

Is this Red Gorilla Mini Shallow 5L Gorilla Tub safe for food storage?

Yes, this tub is made from food-grade LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene), which means it is safe for storing and preparing food items. The purple color specifically is also BPA-free.

Can I use this tub outdoors in all types of weather?

Absolutely. The tub is designed to be flexible and weather-resistant, making it highly suitable for both indoor and outdoor use across various climates and conditions.

What is the exact capacity of this specific tub?

This is the Mini Shallow 5L Gorilla Tub, indicating it has a capacity of 5 liters.

How should I clean my Gorilla Tub?

For light cleaning, simply rinse it with water. For dirtier jobs or to sanitize, wash with warm, soapy water. The flexible material helps prevent materials from sticking, making cleaning quick and easy.

Is this product safe to use around my pets and other animals?

Yes, the Red Gorilla Mini Shallow 5L Gorilla Tub is manufactured from pet-friendly materials and is explicitly noted as being horse and pet friendly, suitable for feed or water.

What are the advantages of the 'golf ball handles'?

The 'golf ball handles' are ergonomically designed to provide an easy, comfortable, and secure grip. They are also reinforced, allowing the tub to withstand the pressure of carrying heavy loads relative to its size without discomfort or damage.

Can I stack these tubs for storage?

Yes, these tubs are designed to nest or stack efficiently when empty, allowing for convenient and space-saving storage.

Is the purple color of this tub BPA-free?

Yes, the purple Red Gorilla Mini Shallow 5L Gorilla Tub is BPA-free. Only the Black, Green, and Yellow tubs in the Gorilla Tub range are not BPA-free.

Troubleshooting

Tub appears stained or discolored after use with certain materials.

While the tub is highly durable, some strong pigments or chemicals might leave faint marks if left for extended periods. Clean the tub immediately after use with warm, soapy water and a soft brush or cloth. For more persistent stains, a mild, non-abrasive cleaner can be used cautiously. Avoid using harsh industrial chemicals that could compromise the material's integrity or food-grade properties.

Difficulty carrying the tub when completely full of very heavy contents.

The reinforced handles are designed to withstand heavy loads for its size, but 5 liters of dense material can still be substantial. For maximum comfort and to prevent strain, utilize both golf ball handles simultaneously to distribute the weight evenly, or consider filling the tub partially when transporting extremely dense items. If possible, slide or drag rather than lifting for very heavy loads.

Tub temporarily loses its shape or appears slightly warped after extreme temperature exposure.

The Gorilla Tub is made from flexible, weather-resistant material designed to perform across a range of temperatures. However, extreme prolonged heat (e.g., left in direct sun in a hot car for days) or extreme cold can temporarily alter its flexibility or shape. It should return to its original form once it acclimatizes back to a moderate temperature. Avoid storing near direct, intense heat sources like open flames or high-powered heaters.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely versatile for home, garden, pet care, and even food-related uses
  • Highly durable and weather-resistant for long-term use in various environments
  • Food-grade material ensures safety for food and animal contact (purple color is BPA-free)
  • Easy to carry and handle with ergonomic, reinforced handles
  • Flexible design aids in mixing, scooping, sweeping, and pouring tasks

Cons

  • Limited to a 5-liter capacity, not suitable for very large projects
  • Shallow design might not be ideal for deep liquid storage or very tall items
  • While this purple tub is BPA-free, some other colors in the wider Gorilla Tub range are not (Black, Green, Yellow)

Setup

The Red Gorilla Mini Shallow 5L Gorilla Tub requires no assembly. It is ready for immediate use straight out of the packaging. Simply remove any labels and it's good to go.

Compatibility

This tub is highly compatible with a wide array of materials and environments. Its `food-grade LDPE` construction means it's safe for direct contact with food items, animal feed, and water. Being `weather-resistant`, it performs reliably in both indoor and outdoor settings, enduring various temperatures and conditions. It can safely hold liquids, granular solids, gardening materials, pet supplies, household waste, and much more.

Care

To clean your Gorilla Tub, rinse it thoroughly with water after each use. For stubborn dirt, residue, or to sanitize, use mild soap and warm water with a soft brush or cloth. The tub's flexible material helps prevent substances from sticking, making cleaning straightforward. While designed to be `weather-resistant`, for optimal longevity and to maintain color vibrancy, store the tub out of prolonged direct sunlight when not in use. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbing pads that could potentially damage the food-grade plastic.
