This 5 gallon gas can is mainly valued as a cheap way to store and pour fuel, especially when similar cans have been hard to find under $20. The supplied nozzle is the biggest drawback, with reports that it is awkward, slow, and can leak if used often. Still, the can itself is described as serviceable, and replacement spouts or pump setups can make it work much better. It is a practical budget pick if you can live with the safety nozzle setup.

Common Questions (5)

  • Yes. Replacement spouts and kits are available cheaply from Temu, AliExpress, Amazon, and similar sources, and some replacements can empty the can much faster than the supplied nozzle. One workaround is to swap in a real spout or a push-button style instead of the safety nozzle.

  • Yes. It is described as a real decent price, and one shopper said they could not find any gas can under $20 for months. The smaller 2.6-gallon version was even noted as costing $1 more.

  • The included safety nozzle is usable but can be annoying and may leak if used frequently or if the can does not seal well around the nozzle. Some also report that the nozzle is surprisingly decent compared with other safety nozzles, but still not ideal for frequent use.

  • It can, but the nozzle is awkward for small equipment and is better suited to filling cars or tractors. For snowblowers and similar tools, a fuel transfer pump or a smaller can makes filling much easier.

  • Yes. A described modification removes the nozzle's internal spring and keeps it open until manually closed, but the o-ring must be replaced or it will leak. Another common fix is using a replacement spout, which can cut emptying time from about 10 minutes to about 2 minutes.

This nozzle isn't as bad as the others. It's surprisingly decent. Will still leak if you use it frequently

Right, I think regulations now say that the old school cans are illegal to make now though...which sucks.

You can still buy cans with normal nozzles. They're just stupid expensive.

Who remember when you could've filled the container for less than this price.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank

FWIW, you can get "real" spouts for a couple bucks apiece on Temu and AliExpress if you buy a multi-pack.

Surprisingly enough Amazon also carries spout replacement kits to bring you back to sane style gas cans (pre 2009 EPA/carb regulations).

You can fill this today for less than $13. Gas is below $2.60 a gallon in a few states.

Yeah, hadn't even checked Amazon because cheap plastic crap is usually cheapest directly from China, but just ordered a 5-pack for $7 from Amazon (https://a.co/d/a8oJAPK). Crazy.
