"I bought 2 of these cans to carry spare diesel for my truck. They have not leaked during extended travel. The handles make them easy to use when filling the truck's tank."

It's a good tool but use caution,

"This is a good tool and worth it for refueling. I do have a caution. When full its heavy, and care must be used to the plastic parts. If the receiving opening is plastic, you will need to use care not to let the full weight rest on its rim as in time it could cause damage (to the receiving receptacle). Also when replacing the filler tube exercise care to have the washer set correctly. If its not set right it will leak. If care is taken as described you will be happy with the purchase."

Works well -- no funnels needed, vents nicely,

"I have a compact tractor where the fuel tank is about chest high. The two handles make it easier to muscle 5 gallons of diesel high enough and the fact that the spring loaded anti-spill thing allows no diesel to flow until you push it open on the edge of the tank makes it so you never get diesel all over when trying to tip a very full fuel jug.
I also like how it vents right in the spout -- so no rear vent to unscrew.
Seems to seal well so far, so I get no fuel on the tractor hitch or seat, fenders, etc.
I also like how it allows a little more than 5 gallons so diesel additive can be added.
I'm very happy with these."
