| This product is supposed to be spill-proof. Are you kidding me? It seems to me that the goal of the brilliant engineers who came up with this design was to make it guaranteed to spill! This can is very difficult to use, and you will ALWAYS leak gas everywhere, all over your hands, your shoes, and whatever you're trying to put gas into. This product should be banned, the people who designed it should be canned, and everyone who bought one of these should be paid $100 for the frustration they've suffered. Fail. I know the EPA required some of this new design, but they are being overprotective of the idiots who don't have enough IQ points to be using a gas can in the first place. |

If you haven't bought a GAS CAN recently, you're in for a big surprise. They are more expensive and harder to use.
With any of the new C.A.R.B. compliant spout, including this one, it's a sruggle to fill your car or even your lawn mower. And, don't count on getting out the last drop of gas without removing the cap and using a long transmission funnel. They've been doing that for a few years in Califotnia, already.
The only viable alternative is the No-Spill brand with the push button, but those cost twice as much.
If you have an older gas can that still works, keep it. If you can find one of the rarer and harder to find old spouts at a local hardware store, buy ALL of them. I've visited 10 stores and discovered that they are all gone, and there will be no more of the old ones. There are a few left on eBay, but they are getting scarce there, too.
So, either find the old stuff, or be in store for more and more frustration. |

| Mine was okay until it split along the plastic weld on top because there is no air vent. Yes it does leak and the nozzle can break. I agree with all the others that are disappointed with this poorly designed gas can. If it split on the bottom there would have been gas everywhere. |

This is a lovely example of something designed by a committee. The old joke is that a camel is a horse designed by a committee. How could they possibly describe this as spill PROOF? I had to give up and resort to a funnel, which is exactly what they were trying to get away from. The moment fuel started to flow it vapor locked and gushed out over everything I tried. I tried on a couple of other things with similar effect. I eventually found a long clear tube filler, now that will fill anything with control and without spills.
Perhaps somewhere there's a single person who designed this and knows exactly how to get it to work perfectly, but for the rest of us I'd strongly advise against it. |

| The yellow "spillproof" closure lasted about a week, then it cracked. Now it leaks all over when I try to fill my lawnmower's gas tank. My recommendation is to buy a standard gas can with some type of lid over the spout, not this cheap spring-loaded type garbage. |
