You need to upgrade the faucet

The faucets on these things are terrible. You need at least to get a gasket for a garden hose and put it on the spout before you screw it in or do what I did, which is way better (see photo)

Leaky Lid

3 years ago

I’ve had the cube shaped Reliance 7 gallon jug for about 2 years and have had no problems with it. I ended up getting this skinnier version last week for space efficiency and found out on my camping trip this weekend that it leaks quite a bit when it’s on its side. I readjusted the cap a few times to try to correct this but couldn’t get it to stop leaking so I ended up having to stand it up every time I was done using it, make it pretty inconvenient. I’m planning on returning it. I may purchase another in case this one was just defective because the shape of this container allowed me to store it on my hitch cargo carrier along with my cooler and another bin.

Still leaks

3 years ago

Bought this updated model hoping Reliance would have fixed the leaky spout issue… but they didn’t. I don’t think I’ve ever left a review before but its just silly they couldn’t fix this. I was able to create a seal by purchasing an o-ring from the hardware store and 3D printing a washer to keep the spout facing down. Still, I shouldn’t have to fix the shortcomings of their design.

Super Compact, Reliable Container

2 years ago

Bought this for a 2.5 week car camping trip across the western national parks and this thing rocked. Holds a TON of water. Not once did we have to fill up over the trip. Compact skinny design allowed it to sit on the floor between back seat and front seat of car. When you need water, Boom, turn it horizontal to access the spigot. When driving, boom, turn it upright. Never had leaks of any kind. Spigot was great to control flow. Smelled strong of plastic initially but gave it a good wash and I didn’t have any issue of water tasting like plastic after. 10/10 recommend.

Good for two people over a weekend.

3 years ago

Sturdy water canister with functional water spout. 7 gallon capacity was good for two people for 1 weekend, drinking, cooking and cleaning. I like the spout can easily control the amount of flow. Spout can be inverted so while transporting it doesn’t stick out.

Improved model

3 years ago

This model is a significant improvement over their last version. Squatter shape so it doesn't tip over in the truck or on picnic table. The spout is easier to turn so the kiddos can turn it on their own. The pressure release is now a cap instead of this tiny water gun plug. I got 3 for camping trips and they fit nicely side by side in my truck bed. I would give it a 5 if the plastic was thicker but can't beat the value for the price point.

Worth the extra couple bucks

3 years ago

I feel like this is an upgrade to the classic cube aquatainer. The dual handles make it easier to move when full and tip up and down for use. I've found the narrow shape to be a little nicer for packing into a loaded trunk of camping gear. The plastic seems a little thicker, which will hopefully be good for durability. Only downside is the think plastic does make it harder to see how full the container is.

No Mods and No Leaks!

3 years ago

I just received this today and have it filled about halfway and it hasn't leaked so far. I was leary due to the reviews saying it leaked but could be fixed with some light modifications. I'm happy to report no leaks! (at least so far)

Super sturdy and easy to use

1 month ago

We love this water container! It holds way more water than I expected (seven gallons is more than you think) but even when totally full, it's still not too heavy to carry. I love that there are two handles so you can easily pick it up. The spigot was easy to install and it's easy to fill. It has been such a dream on our cross-country camping road trip.

The dispenser spouts leak

2 years ago

We’ve used Reliance 7 gal cube shaped before and love them. We thought these would be even better because of the new shape. We bought three. Unfortunately, they let us down. They only hold about 6.5 gallons, and the dispenser spout leaks, so we couldn’t leave them on their sides for ease of dispensing. Very disappointed.
