Comments about Underwater Viewer Bucket:
I bought this so I could find my sunglasses I dropped in the water. It leaked the second it touched the water. I dried it off and added silicon caulk (clear) around the seam of the lens. I noticed that the factory caulk had small bubbles in the sealant.Caulk it yourself inside and out and it will work fine. Don't use it as a bucket, the lens will pop out. Umbelievably poor design. If you used lexan caulk it would be a very strong seal. Consider this a kit and MacGyver it with the caulk of your choice.
Pros
- Easy To Use
Cons
- Defective

Comments about Underwater Viewer Bucket:
This would be a great product except that it was not assembled correctly. The temporary protective film for the plastic is on the inside of the bucket. The sealant between the bucket and the plastic is attached to the plastic film instead of to the clear plastic. It's like securing the plastic with scotch tape. It doesn't hold well or for very long. The proper construction of this bucket would have been for the plastic film to be on the outside and the sealant making direct contact between the bucket and the clear plastic.
Pros
- Easy To Use
- Functional
Cons
- Cant use as a bucket
- Lens fell out
- Poor Construction
