Good, solid product
I plan to buy 8 of these, but I bought just one to see what kind of quality it had. There have been 3 situations within the past two years where friends or family had a need for emergency water at their homes and didn’t have any. I went with the 5 gallon rather than the 7 gallon because 5 gallons of water is pretty heavy. This is part of my being prepared for a two-week emergency plan at my home.It has thick, high-quality, blue, see-through plastic so you can see the water level inside. It has a recessed handle so other containers (the same kind) can be easily stacked on top, making storage easier, and little ridges on top that will fit into the bottom of the container on top, making the stacking very secure (I only have one, so I haven’t actually tested the stacking yet, but I can already tell it will work). The cap reverses and has a spigot so it can be turned on it’s side to dispense water. I tested the spigot and it is water-tight. It also has a little vent plug near the back of the handle to create venting so the water can pour out easily. The vent plug is also water-tight.The labeling is not glued on so it comes off easily. I attached my own labels listing the contents and date of storage.The only thing I see that I wish it had was a long pouring spout such as one would find on a gasoline container. I also think a large funnel would come in handy both for filling it up and for pouring into another container. The spout hole is fairly standard sized, about 2-1/2 inches across. These are not drawbacks to the product, just things I will want to purchase to make it easier to use.I’ve only had it a few days, but I can see the quality is great and I anticipate many years of use out of this product.Recommend

Durable. Leak proof but still easy enough to use/pour
The biggest drawback is the bulk. You don’t want to be lugging this around by hand over any decent distance. Similarly, it is is the same size (though much lighter) when empty. For many jobs I find the foldable or collapsible water container a better fit for the job as it can fit in more spaces and becomes ignorable when empty. However, this container seems like a better fit for long term storage or where you are worried about items sitting on top of the container or other jostling. Not worried about leaks but still relatively easy to use and pour out of. Spigot is easy to use and durable.

Great!
It was great for our camping weekend. Held plenty of water for our family of 4. The spout is excellent and it’s durable!

Good for emergency water storage
I got these to store an emergency supply of water just in case we were to lose our water supply for a few days. They are designed so they easily stacked on top of each other when they are sitting upright and actually fit together. The spigot can be stored inside the container until needed. They are made in Canada so at least you don’t have to worry about if they are contaminated with some chemical like if they were made in China (they put lead in our children’s toys so I doubt they worry too much about our water containers) and they are also BPA free which is a big plus.I got mine, filled it up and it didn’t leak which is about the best thing you can say about a water container. It appears to be of good quality construction and material. I only have two minor complaints. You store the spigot inside by screwing it off the outside of the cap and then screwing it on the inside of the cap. This leaves the inside of the spigot fully exposed to the outside environment when stored. It’s not a huge deal, but it would be nice if they gave you a cap so you could cover that hole to keep out dirt and other contaminants. Also, the small air hole in the top of the container is plugged with a piece of plastic. It is very tight when it is plugged, but I think it would be more secure if they had designed it to screw on just to make sure it does not come loose (especially since you might also use this to haul water in a car and in could get bounced around a bit). These are both very minor issues, though, and overall I think this is a very good container.**UPDATE 6/16/2012** – I just went on a trip to Death Valley and decided I’d better pack some extra water in the car just in case I ended up broke down somewhere so I packed one of these in the back of my SUV. The total trip was about a week and included driving over 50 miles on a washboard gravel road to see the Racetrack Playa (and I mean every foot of the road was really washboard). Even after all that bouncing around plus a few other shorter washboard roads the container held up. If it can bounce around in the back of my SUV for a few hours on rough roads plus ride around normal driving for a week and still hold up with no leaking I would say it’s pretty well made.

Excellent, BPA free storage container
I bought two of these 5-gallon water containers, in order to have drinking water handy if the power goes out. We have a well, so without electricity our pump doesn’t work. I’ve got a couple of water-filled 55 gallon water barrels for extended power outages, but for a day or two these containers are just the right size. They would fit nicely in the truck for a camping trip, too.I really like that they are BPA-free, meaning there are no chemicals leaching into the water. Being food grade plastic, there also won’t be any plastic-y taste to the water. These containers stack nicely, and the spiggot is stored inside the lid so it stays clean. They are rigid enough that they don’t bulge outward when full, and the handles on both the top and the side mean it’s easy to carry and move. There is also a removable plug to allow air to enter as you are dispensing, so no “glug glug” slowing down the flow.I bought an extra spiggot just in case something happens to one of the ones that came with the container.I haven’t had any trouble with leaking around the gasketed lid, like I’ve read about some other containers. That also means no dirt will be entering the water while it’s being stored. Overall I am very pleased with these containers and highly recommend them to people who want to keep some drinking water on hand.

Nicely made and sturdy.
No nonsense with this water tank. Its study, and solid. Water is not imparted a plastic taste. Works great.

Very sturdy and less flexible plastic than I was expecting this will be great for those 2-3 day campouts. Looking forward to using it as it looks quite reliable.
