1.0 out of 5 stars Fire Hazard -- Negative 5 Stars, September 23, 2005

By	C. M. Carroll "JAF3BDR" (Florida) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

All the Blitz cans using this design burp gasoline every time there is a change of temperature or baro pressure. With the cap closed, the vent is submerged in the fuel. When the can is exposed to the sun, fuel is forced up the spout and out of the seal. A major failure of oversight by the CPSC and UL.

1.0 out of 5 stars Only good for self-immolation, March 16, 2006

By	Gnome DePlume (Pittsburgh, PA) - See all my reviews

I have never seen a product as poorly designed. You spill gas all over the car and yourself. Somebody is going to get killed using this. Hey Government Regulators... what are you waiting for?

1.0 out of 5 stars Horrible product! , June 11, 2006

By	M. Gerenser "Creative Director" (Webster, NY USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is the worst gas can I've ever used. Imagine my horrific surprise when I first used it to try and fill up the tank on new lawn mower. I dumped more gas on my shoes than in the mower's tank. How hard can it be to use a gas can!?!? Well, apparently I'm not the only one having trouble with this thing. This product stinks. I'm returning it, and I'm going to find a traditional gas can that just works.
