Defective Cap, no replacement

Defective caps, no replacement. You are a fool to buy this until Igloo supplies replacement caps that are redesigned. Cap breaks the first time you use these jugs.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Going to make some modifications
on June 6, 2021
Posted by: Curtis

I bought this jug for water storage and after reading some of the negative reviews I realized I will be making some modifications on this product. I was hoping that Igloo had a spigot option available so that I could lay the jug on its narrow side and dispense water as needed. No spigot is apparently made for this jug. There are also many reviews of the original caps cracking or tearing apart. Not good to read. So I'm going to go find a spigot that will work with this jug and adapt it. I'm not throwing it away prematurely but I intend to install a working spigot. Right now the product is doing fine but I'm keeping an eye on it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Caps are obviously a known problem

I bought 2 of these 6 gallon water jugs about 3 years ago. They have always been stored in my home garage. Both of the threaded caps cracked and broke within about 6 months. I finally decided to look for replacement caps but no luck so far. From all of the reviews, Igloo obviously knows about the problem but apparently doesn't care. Goodbye Igloo!

Cap split on both caps on 1st dry camping trip

Horrible cap design filled with water and started carrying them from truck to picnic table both were leaking from cracked caps. After looking both caps are to thin to not crack. Very poor design.

Cap broke

We love the jug but the cap broke so we'll need to look for a replacement part. We haven't had it that long. Surprised it broke already.

Good container. Bad Cap.
on January 22, 2022
Posted by: Dissatisfied2
from Austin, TX
I love the size, shape, and convenience of this container. However, the plastic cap cracked after less than a year of VERY gentle use. (Refilled twice and mainly sat in closet for emergencies.) Essentially useless as an emergency container now since it doesn't seal and can't take it camping since it leaks. Apparently, this is not an uncommon deficiency and as mentioned in other reviews, replacement caps are not available. Overall, an unsatisfactory product with no convenient solution to defect.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Replacement Parts? Not So Much...
on June 5, 2022

Good container, but the cap split around the base and once it's broken, you cannot secure water in the container or use the spout. I don't need an entire container—just the cap. And I could find no replacement parts for this on the website.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
