Blitz 21510 2 Gallon Spill Proof Gas Can

 (10 customer reviews)

Mind bogglingly stupid design, could not possibly have been tested with real cars. The nozzle is too short and too large in diameter to work with cars that run on unleaded gas. How these guys could screw up something as simple as a gas can is unimaginable. The poorest design for any product I've even used in my life. Thankfully I borrowed it from a friend and didn't buy it myself. He tried to warn me...

The pour is bad. Bad. While self-venting is nice, the nozzle on this can sprays gas all over during the pour and the pour is slow. To make matters worse, the spout is rigid and getting the right angle to the mower is frustrating. I thought maybe I would have better luck with a second unit, but it seems this is a design problem. I cannot under any circumstance recommend this can for any use. This can seems to have somehow bypassed any user acceptance testing or management needed to just get the product out the door. Blitz has my money. I hope they use it on better product developement; especially since their sales team has gone bonkers in my area and this is about the only thing you can find on the shelves.

The yellow "spillproof" closure lasted about a week, then it cracked. Now it leaks all over when I try to fill my lawnmower's gas tank. My recommendation is to buy a standard gas can with some type of lid over the spout, not this cheap spring-loaded type garbage.
