When you live in the country, or the suburbs for that matter, you have need of a gas can-- for the lawnmower, chainsaw, etc. The plastic ones you are likely to encounter in your local big-box or hardware store have evolved a bit over the years, and not for the better. "Safety" concerns have given us nozzles that require more agility than I have to pour, twist and push at the same time. I am about twice as likely to spill gas using one of these--where is the safety advantage? Also, prices have gone up to the point where the typical plastic 2.5 gallon gas jug will set you back $20, and then again when you have to buy another one because the nozzle broke..... I saw these Just Rite galvanized cans here on Amazon, and the price was pretty good, especially for what it turns out is a lifetime investment. This thing works so well, and easily, and is so well designed-- my sister-in-law thought it belonged in the kitchen, on display, instead of in the garage! I bought 2 sizes and am totally pleased. Can I gave it more stars?????
