They have stood the test of time
The containers arrived ahead of schedule with all the gaskets, lids, dispenser valve, and lid wrench present. I filled them immediately, and had no leaks overnight. The containers are heavy gauge plastic with no mold flash and stack as advertised. I'm 100% satisfied. Good job, guys! - Edit - I liked these so much, I ordered a second box, for a total of 60 gallons. They are much easier to handle than a 55-gallon drum, and when stacked take up less space. -Update- It's now 2 years 4 months since I first filled these, and stored them in my basement. I just emptied and refilled with fresh water, and I want to report that the water picked up no odor and tasted sweet. P.S. I've already used them twice when the water supply was interrupted. -Update- I have 18 of these now, stacked 3 high and storing 90 gallons in quite a small space. The oldest are 3 years 7 months, and no problems encountered. -Update- My containers are now over 5 years old. They have been filled and stacked, hauled around, and emptied and refreshed. Definitely not treated with kid gloves, and still good as new. -Update- After 5 years 3 months, one container developed a pinhole leak. That's pretty good performance, judging by the heavy use they've received. I'm going to order some more.
