Well made and great for storm prep
Purchased these right before the onslaught of hurricanes we received in Florida in 2024 and they worked great. They are large and hold a lot of water but don’t take up too much room being as tall and slender as they are. We have a water purifier so we used that to fill these up before the storms came. The spout is easy to operate and comes off and back on easily. They are not easy to wash, but to be fair nothing of this caliber would be easy to wash. For how much water it holds, its not as heavy as you would anticipate for how well made it feels.

High quality water storage
These are a great set of very sturdy water cans. The handles make them easy to carry and they are very stable. The plastic is thick and you can feel that they are built with quality. The caps have a screw on pour spout and a screw on air release to allow for pouring without the glub-glub annoyance. Yes, you will pay more for these than for many other models but it is worth it in my estimation. I have used them extensively in the field and they hold up well unless you abuse them.

GREAT WATER CANS, HEAVY DUTY, MILITARY GRADE
After years of storing water in those clear spring water jugs from HD & WM, and having them ultimately split and leak at the darndest times, I finally decided to go with something a little more substantial and these fit the bill perfectly. I bought the 6-pack and as I was doing the initial wash & sanitize steps on these, I was reminded of the old Samsonite luggage commercial from the 70’s where they torture-tested the luggage with gorillas…well, these things are definitely gorilla proof!Some reviewers complain about the smell of plastic and relate that to “dangerous and toxic chemicals” and I read one review that claimed that Scepter mixed up the plastic on these for the plastic that they use for fuel cans. Sorry scooter, that’s just plain silly and a knee-jerking, review from an uninformed person.Fact, these water cans are made of food-grade, BPA free plastic. 100% safe! They are blow molded and shortly thereafter the lid is affixed and sealed-up and prepared for shipping. Guess what scooter…these things are made of plastic and plastic smells like plastic…surprise-surprise…the inside is going to smell like plastic immediately after opening up never used can, especially when new and freshly sealed up.I removed the lids and let mine air-out for about 24 hours and there was just the faintest smell of plastic. After a double-wash & rinse with Dawn dish detergent, there is no smell. I filled with water and taste-tested after a week and my water tastes like water. Absolutely zero after taste and no plastic taste.These are good cans!I did perform a slight modification to my lids in order to make them more easier to dispense. I took a brand-new, 1/2″ NPT pipe tap and cut threads into the inside of the small pour spout. Then went to HD and bought a 1/2″ water valve so I can screw it into the pour spout and sit the can on it’s side and let gravity fill my water bottles and anything else that needs filling.I highly recommend these water cans! They will literally be the last water can that you will ever buy unless it gets lost or stolen. If you’re sitting on the edge about these cans, just buy them and give them a good airing-out and washing before use…and remember plastic smells like plastic when new.
