Scepter FSCG552 Fuel Container with Spill Proof SmartControl Spout with Bonus Spout Extender, Rear Handle Red Gas Can, 5 Gallon

I bought two of these 5 gallon fuel cans, one for gasoline, one for diesel. Fuel cans I've used in the past use a complicated pinch and slide mechanism to seal the spout when it's not dispensing fuel. Those prove exasperating when trying to lift a 2 gallon can and pour fuel into a piece of equipment, especially something large like my tractor (I have to use a step stool to reach the filler). Trying that with a 5 gallon can did not appeal to me at all.This style of safety spout is much easier to use. And the handle molded into the side of the can helps a lot in hoisting that heavy can into position and holding it there while the fuel transfers.The flow of fuel is not as good as the old style cans with a separate vent to let air into the can so fuel can flow out the spout freely. But government mandates make those ... illicit if not illegal. But for this type of "approved" container, it does pretty well and it easier to operate that some I have used.

PRO:1. Two handles is a great idea, lets you hold vertical or horizontal.2. Nice way to get around the DOT / OSHA / EPA standards of not spilling gas with this push to flow spout.CON:1. A few little drips at the start of operation, but not bad.2. Cannot really get into the can, there is a filter piece that is in the way.OTHER:1. Make sure you buy RED for Gasoline and Yellow for diesel.2. Not a rough and tough can, the spout CAN be snapped off if hit, tossed, dropped, so be careful.

loved the easy pour spout - sturdy and well made

I normally spill gas everywhere when I fill my lawnmower and with this gas container, I have not spilled at all. Easy to use and has a notch on the Nosel that you can rest the gas container on when fill your tank. Nice Design!

This is a quality made plastic 5 gallon gas can ,with spill proof spout. Well designed.

Bought this in store since the shipping was delayed. It’s the most difficult gas can I’ve ever had. The spout is too short to fill my RZR. More gas comes out of the collar than the spout and what gas does come out flows so slow. The lock is so difficult it takes one person to hold that and another to tilt the can. The filter on the inside make gas spit out when filling up the can. I ended up trashing the store bought one and returned this one as soon as I got it.

Really good I have another one from this brand for 4 years and the system on the spout hasn’t faiil.

Great purchase , price was just right. Great safety features and good design.
