Great sturdy water containers
Sturdy container for water storage. So far leak proof laying our their sides. Holds 6 gallons which make them great the the 5 gallon one but you feel the difference in weight as well

Great for camping!
I bought these for our family to use on a week long camping trip to stops without potable water. Boy did they hold up to the task! We hauled two of them filled on the back of our cargo rack over 1,000 miles in the heat of Arizona and Utah. No signs of wear. I was very pleased that they came with an easy to install and use spout. The flat rectangular shape made them easy to store. The only thing I would change about the product is to add a tether to the cap plug. It’s small and easy to lose. Once that’s gone you have no way to keep your container closed. Definitely a must have for camping and well worth the money!

Great value!
Second purchase. Size works so much better than shorter, wider size for my needs. Well made with spout and lid included. Handles on top and side make it easy to carry and pour.

Sturdy and unbeatable for the price
I like to keep extra water on hand for the unstable world we live in nowadays.There are many storage options, but the price, durability, and features of these cans are unmatched.I highly recommend these for any use.

Improved?
Mixed emptions here. I have several of the older style 6 gallon Igloo water carriers that this one replaces. This one has a MUCH better vent location, and same good nozzle, but it doesn’t seal as well as the old model around the nozzle/cap, and they weren’t all that great as it was. Works fine of you can carry them upright, as I can.Avoid buying if you must lay them down, unless you like whatever they are laying on to be wet. That aside, they are tough, and my only gripe is after about 5 years of use two of mine started to leak right on the seam on the bottom center. Tried every glue imaginable – waste of money on the glue…. Still, 5 years use is worth the bucks to me to get new ones…Only other aggravation is tying a half dozen of them down to the Hitch Haul using the top handle to run Rope Ratchets through, these new models are same dimension as the old at the rear of the handle, but the handle opening is about an inch shorter in front.

Safe Secure Water Supply
UPDATE: I’ve been cycling water using this system for almost a year now with no problem. No leaks, no broken seams, nada. Weather forecast predicts temps at 100+ degrees for the next two weeks (and likely longer). I would buy more of these water jugs if I had a place to put them but that’s the anxiety talking . . . system works the way it should.I moved to Tucson in April 2022 and after 2 years of COVID and having survived a derecho in Iowa no way in h*** was I going to live in the desert without an emergency water supply. It took 4 months and a lot of Amazon research but I finally settled on these 6-gallon Igloo water jugs for indoor storage of my emergency drinking water supply (I also have a 55-gallon drum of non-drinking water that I keep outside). I like them because there’s no chemical smell, and because I can store them upright without putting pressure on the seal that might cause leaks over time. I switched out Igloo’s highly phallic pour-spouts for the red gas caps which seem to have a much stronger seal, and also followed the directions posted by another reviewer for how to drill one of those caps to insert a spigot that lets me transform the storage container into an accessible water source for every-day use. This system allows me to cycle through the stored water so it never sits for more than a few months at a time.

Great for refilling the water tank on our travel trailer
We have a travel trailer with a 30 gallon water tank – not enough for a 2 week trip in a campground where we have to lug water from a pump especially when we are taking showers in the trailer. The upside of this water container is that it has a handle on the side to help lift it up to fill the water tank on the trailer. It is also fillable using the same water filter we use to fill the tank on the trailer, so we can filter the water before putting it into the trailer.The downside is that as a 6 gallon container, it weighs over 50 lbs when full, so it is hard to lift up high enough to fill the trailer. We solve that problem by sliding our cooking table under it to help take the weight. My husband can manage it when full. I usually only fill it half full and make more trips.We already had another 5 gallon container, but this one is easier to use because of the handle on the side to help lift it. This was a good purchase for the money.

Works great as a water “tank” for my portable AC unit.
I bought a portable AC unit for the bedroom above the garage. The home is in a hot humid climate and did a good job making the room livable. Unfortunatly the humidity ment that I would have to carry two one gallon jugs full of water down the stairs multipul times a day. I also had to turn off the unit if I needed to leave the house for more than a couple of hours because depending the water would overflow if I wasn’t there to empty it. Needless to say that got old very quickly… I needed a bigger “jug”.After searching many options I chose this 6 gallon water container because it was rigid and has handles placed is a manner which make it easy to carry and empty. I’m very happy with my purchase.On average I only have to carry this down the stairs twice a day. If I go out I make sure to empty it before I leave and I get to come home to a nice cool room.

Container was a little awkward to use and heavy when fully filled with water.

Nice solid container that will be useful for what I need it for. Might be a little pricey when compared to alternative ways to carry water, but it feels like quality and was the size and shape I required. It depends on whether you need that level of quality, that size or shape for what you’re using it for.

I use it for olive oil storage. I buy bulk size cans and empty it in this great tank

Excelente tamaño, le cabe poco mas de un garrafon, matiene el agua fresca y limpia, resistente, les recomiendo limpiarlo y lavarlo por afuera para que el material dure mas y no se empieze a agrietar, por adentro, solo enjuagar con agua limpia de garrafon y dejar secar bien boca abajo y cerrar hasta que este seco por completo, NO es recomendable poner liquidos de ningun tipo que no se agua natural (no aguas de sabor, ni refresco, por que hay quien lo hace…), esto degrada el interior y es mas dificil lavarlo ya que se le va pegando todo por adentro, solo agua natural., para guardarlo si es en la sombra mejor, tener cuidado con la tapita entre la rosca y la manguera, si se pierde ya no se puede cerrar
