Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I haven't used these packs as I just filled them and they are undergoing their first freeze. However, I would like to give some feedback on the instructions (for the Screw cap packs only). Instruction #6 states "Now install screw cap and tighten all the way until there is no gap at the bottom of the cap where it meets the bag". The cap can only be screwed down so much, and there is a 1/16-1/8" gap between the bottom of the cap and the plastic spout section of the bag(what it screws on to). IF you were to follow the instructions, you would break the cap, if your fingers are strong enough. If the reader is to understand the existing instructions as no gap on the "inside" of the cap, then that should be clearly stated (which is common sense anyways). It is ambiguous otherwise. Also, #5 states "Set cork down into spout below spout top by about 1/4 inch". The cork is a conical shape. It will only set into the spout one way. If you try to set it in 1/4", there will be an air gap between the spout and cork and I'm not sure how you are supposed to put the cap on with it floating above the spout. In reality, 75%-80% of the cork sits into spout as you put the cap on. Here's an example of how you could state this procedure. " As you squeeze the bag against your chest with one hand raising the water up into the spout opening, install the cork firmly as to just touch the water inside the bag. As you release the pressure on the bag, the firmly placed cork will act as an air tight seal and not allow air to enter the bag as you install the cap. Do not put pressure on the bag until the cap is firmly installed." One more, #2. It would be wise to clarify that EACH bag takes 3.5 cups (28 ounces) of tap water. Now I'm just nit-picking. Aside from those small issues, the pack material seems to be of high quality and they are the perfect size for my old Rubbermaid cooler. I will update this review after using them for awhile. I'm a technical writer/engineer, so yeah, sorry.
