Just starting out and looking for some advice as to what to buy for brewing a beer kit.
There seem to be a lot of cheap plastic buckets with lids around that don't appear to use an airlock, such as these:

Are these okay or should I be looking for something that's sealed? Would something like this "25 ltr Fermenter 4 inch top" wine fermenter be okay for making beer:
