Primo Water™ Purified, Initial Purchase 5-Gallon Water Bottle (Single)

We are an Ice Mountain family. However, we decided to reduce our plastic waste by switching to individual cups and a water dispenser. I tried getting Ice Mountain in the 5gal container, but they weren't available. However, I was elated to see that Walmart carried Primo brand which was supposed to be by the same company as Ice Mountain and have equal taste and quality. I am sorry it does not. The water is salty and not good. I am very disappointed. I will be going back to my Brita until I can find a decent water, but Primo is not it!

Years ago I never would have thought I'd be buying bottled water! Where I was in CT, the town water was always good right out of the tap! But now days, in SE TX on the Gulf, the tap water is awful. I bought cases of water bottles for a long time but hated all the plastic being thrown away. I thought about a bottom fill water cooler but they're expensive and they break. I found a great rechargeable water dispensing pump for 5 gal jugs. It's all I need. Sits on the open bottle neck, tube goes to bottom. Press a button to start and stop and fill glasses, travel mugs, whatever you need. You don't need anything else. Take the bottles to a refilling station and you're all set. The only thing that would make this better is if Walmart had water refilling available in the stores in Rockport, TX. Or they could pick up empties and replace with full bottles, even better for. those getting up in years.

This item is fine if you are picking up and returning an empty jug. However, if you are ordering and having it delivered it is too expensive. We will have to do something else from now on because paying $52.00 between the cost and delivery is not acceptable for the office.

I love buying these and then filling up at a "Watermill Express" where they only charge $1.75. Filling up at a primo at walmart is $2.68 and outside Walmart at a Primo fill up it's $3 plus an additional fee so be sure to just use the "Watermill Express" when refilling these.

Here's a straightforward, solid review you can use: **5 out of 5 Stars - Clean, Fresh, and Dependable** I've been buying these 5-gallon jugs for a while now, and the water quality is consistently excellent. It has a perfectly clean, crisp taste with absolutely zero chemical or metallic aftertaste. The jug itself is sturdy, seals tightly with no leaking during transport, and fits perfectly onto my water cooler dispenser. It's an easy, cost-effective way to keep fresh drinking water on hand. Highly recommend if you want great-tasting water without any hassle!

a little pricey but overall worth it because they are refillable at Walmart at a very cheap price. i use them during the hot summer because my well will dry up and this water taste great and refreshing. always great to have one or two on hand so i have one when i need it

glad to have this in case of an emergency power outage and / or tap water shortage / contamination. great product to have as an end of times economic breakdown. long shelf life as long as i keep it in room temperature and dark environment. i put a large blanket over it to ensure the darkness. no regrets.

I bought two of these for my house (one in store and one online delivery) to help cut down on the amount of water bottles we go through.. But each time I could not sTand the taste and nor did the kids. They would fill their cups and it went to waste . Honestly didn't taste much different than our city tap water which is very sad. Who knows if its the water alone or jut how the plastic bottles are made or both just harsh chemical taste. no thanks.

if you go to Walmart and you buy the product says great value it's a great price for your budget and you can get a lot with it I have never had a problem with anything that I have bought that said great value they have great food products and they have great cleaning products and I like their pet area too so just remember next time you go to Walmart it always don't have to be in name brand it can be great value God bless you and have a great day

These jugs did not have water in them, and when I returned them I was faced with a problem because the store stated that they come filled. When I asked Sparky(the AI) it said that they don't come filled. I didn't know because I purchased the jugs through delivery. MAKE IT RIGHT WALMART!
