Walmart is a world class organization. I'd rather order online VS fighting store crowds. If you can't faint what you want at Walmart you probably don't need it
These kerosene containers are great. The valve system makes carrying them in your car easy with little to no vapor release. They are sturdy and fit nicely in the back of my VW.
Instructions were a bit choppy on how to use it. But once you get the hang of it it's simple. Even though it's adversized as kerosene, You do not have to use it for that. I do like that it is a different color so if you have mixed fuel compared to regular fuel this will help you keep the differences most are red.
I can't give it 5 stars and I"ll tell you why. The can is great and doesn't smell at all. I have it in my dining room. Can't even tell it's there. The first spout that came with it didn't work. I called the company and they were nice enough and replaced it free of charge. Then the spout button worked but when I fill up my car, the gas leaks out. May be I need to figure out a better way to place the piece in, I couldn't easily with out spilling.
I am overall happy with my purchase of 4 of these jugs, but soon discovered these jugs were not meant to be used in conjunction with squeeze-bulb/siphon pumps. I had to drill a 5/8" hole into each one of these jugs' "mouths" in order to slide a siphon pump feed into the jugs. No biggie, really, Other then that, they serve my purposes well, and are of good quality for a substantially-lower price than Ace Hardware(who wanted about $33(!) each for essentially the same product. Would recommend.
Full flow is so slow! Takes forever to empty 5 gals. Flow adjustment function is meaningless since full flow is so slow
I received ordered this kerosene jug ealier this week and received it quickly on yesterday. I love the safety feature on the jug, but in a matter of days the price has increased by $2.01. That is price gauging. The weather is terrible and we are in need of this item but a $2.01 sudden increase is robbery
These cans suck. There's a filter inside that makes them hard to fill but is easily removed. Forget about using your battery operated siphon, the spout isn't big enough. The safety spout is garbage, you can't see how much it's pouring out, that's if you can get it in the gas tank of your heater. The pics don't show any of those issues. Spend a little more for the other cans
Absolutely the worst design imaginable! Darn near impossible to use the nozzle. I had to pry the stupid screen out, cut the annoying green tab off and also remove the hose so I could just dump it out. The push to use is so darn hard and it only trickles out... It would literally take over 15min to fill a gallon tank and I'd end up spilling it everywhere. Even after I removed all the stupid government regulated safety features which make this thing very dangerous with them on I still have an issue because the stupid seals that keep it from leaking and absorbing water fall out and because you can't separate the lid parts it's impossible to reinstall. I would honestly like to kick the idiot who designed this can and the prissy tot politicians who decided fuel cans needed to be human proof. I'll admit I understand common sense is in very short supply with people actually needing labels to tell you coffee is hot, or not to use superglue as hairspray but seriously just put a stupid label on the darn thing.
this thing is ridiculously hard to manage while squeezing the safety tab pushing the green button and pouring with the other hand when it's got 5 gallons of fuel in it! there's only one handle no support handle on the bottom not that it would matter because you can't pour with two hands you have to hold 15 knobs in place. really regretting this purchase.
