This is my first purchase of a Jerry can, and I am impressed with what I received. I have a bunch of plastic gas cans which frankly make me quite nervous. I had one plastic can that the seam split under the handle so gas got all over your hands when pouring. The lib style nozzles on these plastic cans actually causes more spills than they prevent because the design is so poor and just gets worse as it ages. Those problems are all behind me now. I have also purchased the Jerry Can flexible spout, which is a must have, although the californite style one that came with the can is adequate and not so bad. It is just a lot easier to pour the gasoline with the flexible spout. I fully expect these cans to outlast me and keep working well into my sons adulthood. I just bought a couple more, but I see that there seems to suddenly be a shortage of these cans due to the pandemic, so I had to buy a different model. This one is out of stock.
