This is my first year buying any substantial amount of smokeless ovoids - I only ever bought a couple of bags at a time, but I've currently just got a load of bags stacked in the shed and it's a bit of a pain to restock... hence the thread: can anyone recommend a decent looking decent quality bunker for in the garden? Or ones to avoid? 

Say 200-250kg capacity. 

I also wouldn't mind a recommendation for a decent hod (I'm currently using my spare garden bucket) and ash carrier :)

    I would avoid the thin galvanised metal type bunkers.
    We have one and it hasn't been great. Very thing galvanising and the lid and two of the sides started rusting within a few years.

    I think if i was buying again I would look at something more substantial. Perhaps like the one above or the moulded plastic types. Although I have no experience of the plastic types so I am not sure how robust they are either.
