I wish that I had this product a long time ago. It will allow me to thoroughly clean my paintbrushes.

I love the idea of this product. Brushes get bent when stored overnight in coffee can. And I was really happy with the way it worked at first. But after about a week of using the storage container I'm doing a lot of painting here at my house, the blue plastic lid started to warp and crack. It looks like the top will soon break into pieces. As far as I can tell, the deterioration is a result of the paint thinner fumes. I'm using ordinary mineral spirit thinner. I haven't spilled any thinner onto the plastic, so I think the effect is just from the fumes. Makes this very good idea kind of useless, if the lid can't take ordinary paint thinner fumes.
Editor's note: This container is intended to be used for overnight storage of brushes and is not to be used for long term (more than overnight) storage of brushes or solvents.

As said above, the container firmly holds the brush suspended in the brush cleaner fluid. Unfortunately the top fits rather poorly after several days of use. I see the Editors note "not intended for to be used...for a long term." Since I am painting a large project, the container is used on a daily basis over the last 8 days. I suppose that constitutes use on for a long term. Even with a poorly fitting top, the container works better than a milk bottle.
"I live in NJ, and wish there was a physical store near where I live. My experience with rockler.com is second to none. Not only are your products first rate, but customer service/product support is exceptional. I've called several times, and never received someone on the other end of the phone who was anything but extremely helpful, patient, and friendly. The biggest compliment I can give is that I TRUST Rockler for all my woodworking needs. The only other store I can say that about is LL Bean. My wood working friends in western NJ love Rockler. Keep on keepin' on - and get a store here in Jersey!!" -
