5.0 out of 5 stars
This is *the* gas can to buy!,
By Jeff N (Tennessee) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: No-Spill 1450 5-Gallon Poly Gas Can (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)
Now that gas cans are no longer allowed to have vents, most of them are clumsy and spill prone. Not this one - it is the best gas can I've owned! Well worth the money. The button makes it easy to control the flow of gas. This is especially helpful when your five-gallon can is full and the tank that you are filling is in an awkward location (such as my old sears garden tractor).
Also, the "CARB" lining of the can will help keep your gas fresh (as well as being environmentally correct). It turns out that some components of gasoline can evaporate right through the plastic the traditional cans. This means that after a month or so the composition of your gasoline will be changed. The lining on the new cans prevents this from happening.

This can leaks around cap seal,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: No-Spill 1450 5-Gallon Poly Gas Can (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)
Bought this can a few weeks ago and just went to fill it for the first time. After filling, I replaced the cap and tightened it down as far as it would go and there were several clicks of the retaining clip. Put the can in my trunk and drove home (about 8 blocks). When I got home, gas had spilled out from around the cap. There is a black o-ring and this still did not make a seal tight enough to keep the gas from spilling out.
Not worth the money for this can. Can't return it as there is no way to ship a can that has been filled with gas by UPS, US Mail and to ship via a hazardous chemical transport company would cost way, way more than the can cost.

No-Spill gas cans,
This review is from: No-Spill 1450 5-Gallon Poly Gas Can (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)
No-Spill gas cans, I bought 2 a 2.5 Gallon & 5 Gallon before the law went into effect, in the beginning of 2009. Right off I had problems with both gas cans swelling, from sitting in the hot sun. I use the 2.5 more then then larger gas can, I use it for per-mixed gas for 2cycle equipment. I`d have to vent the can before trying to filling hand held equipment. If I didn't the pressure inside the gas can would blow into the fuel tank, I was filling with enough force to blow back out of the tank and blow gas all over my hands and that piece of equipment. I figured I just wasted my money and another company just made a product that didn't do what it was suppose to do. So I Just used them both and just vented them before filling. One thing I did like was I could control the fuel flow, once vented. I had spent over $50.00 for both.
The start of next mowing season, I went to put fresh gas in both cans and to my surprise both nuts on the spouts that connect to the gas can, were split. I know enough to not over tighten a nut made out of plastic, The constant swelling caused this due to the pressure build up and then they started leaking fuel. To say I was upset is and understatement I found No-spills web site and got their email for customer service fired off a email and told them of my problems and how unhappy I was with both of there two gas cans. Also told them about the blowing of fuel out of the swelling gas cans and how dangerous that was and how I had to vent them before filling. I got a quick reply asking for my name and address so they could mail out two new replacement spouts, these spouts came in the mail in about three days and they were different then the old ones, I did know it but these gas cans have a three year warranty on them, the labels came off with use. I don`t know what they did to them inside but no more problems and I now very happy that they just didn't blow me off. I can now use then like they were intended to be used. I only gave it 3 stars because of the problems, but I`ll give customer service a 5 stars rating.
