This thing is a TANK!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow this is really high quality. I have the 5-Gallon size and can’t stress enough how solid the build of this container is. The walls are crazy thick, and first impression is this would not only last my lifetime but also my kids. I mean you could probably just flop a shipping label on this and ship as-is and not have to worry about it being damaged on delivery. I did a simple rinse and filled it up and stuck in in the back of my vehicle where it would get to 100+ degrees F (it’s been over 100 each day here). I then tried the water the next day and did notice a bit of plastic taste. I looked online and this is normal and there were a number of recommendations on how to properly clean these type containers for the first time. I tried the one with filling it ¾ and adding a couple tablespoons of bleach and vinegar and shaking, placing upside down, etc. This showed the seal was solid. I let it sit a while then vigorously did the whole shaking thing again before draining. I then filled about half-way with hose water and did the whole shaking, emptying, refilling this about 3 times and let it air-dry. After a couple days I filled it up and then tried the water the next day and there was no odor and the plastic taste and gone. I plan to use this for campaign and as emergency water. It’ll go into my normal routine maintenance items I do every time change and will be on my checklist to change out the water every time change (so every 6 months).
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great To Have On Hand!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This water container is a great thing to have on hand. It comes in handy in the the event of an emergency situation. It also comes in handy for camping. It’s made from thick quality food grade material that is BPA free! It’s a very durable water container that should last for a long time. It has a nice large opening that makes it easy to fill up. Then there is also a smaller opening that you can use to pour from. It has a nice handle that makes it easy to carry.

Durable and easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There’s lots of uses for a great water container and one is being able to take with us on camping trips. I also use it on the road with a spout connected to the smaller opening for drinking water when working disaster areas, it works great for that especially when you are in an area that has no working water. Also works best at the beach for rinsing off the sand and salt water for the ride home. The Scepter 5 gallon water container is very durable and light weight to transport, it’s made with food grade plastic, but just remember to wash it out with baking soda and water first to remove the taste of plastic from the inside. Overall this is a must have around the house you can never have enough water on hand. The large opening has a vent cap that will unscrew but will not come out makes it so where it can’t fall off and become lost. The smaller opening can accommodate a spout for draining water easily.

Great choice!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This has assisted my camping trips by enormous amounts! I have used it to bring water with me for cooking with and as I used it all I would be able to replenish it with boiled water from the rivers. It is a lightweight material, but has withheld long drops and rough terrain. It has not given my drinking water any weird scents or flavors. I highly recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are huge! We got them for hurricanes. When you live in Florida you need something like this for when a hurricane comes cause you lose water and electricity really quick. These work and help store water best way! I highly recommend these for water storage!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Brought water to camp this morning and these containers worked flawlessly. Simple but rugged design. These containers fit in my existing jerry can holders. Rugged enough to last many years. Great Product!

High quality storage jug!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am pleasantly surprised with the quality of this jug. As a prepper, I am used to using quality materials for storage because we aim to store food and water for longer periods of time and this jug definitely exceeds my expectation. It is made of a thick quality food grade material and it is very durable. It is also very handy whenever we go camping. As I have seen online, think there are attachments we can use to convert it for use in a shower and I am excited to try that because that’s another thing that would be really useful. For the quality and value I get with this storage jug, I’d say every dollar is worth it! Highly recommended!
