Midwest Can 8600 Diesel Can - 5 Gallon Capacity

Not flimsy has a nice weight to it.. the spout is a bit strange.. will update after using it.Over all pleased :)

Fair price.

Got a couple of these to keep my tractor fueled up. The duel handles help when lifting and pouring from a heavy container and the nozzle is much simpler to use than most of the overly-complicated ones on the market.

As diesel cans go - its not half bad.Ever try to find a 10 Gallon can?There is a reason that they are fewer of them = you have to lift them.I can still wrangle a 5 Gallon can.I have noticed myself looking forward to proofing from a partial jug.That first pour is getting to be more of task.I suppose that I could stop refilling at 4 gallons - but, I'm too cheap to make more trips.The nozzle is a bit of a mystery.The industry has figured out the can part. The plastics are thick enough. It's durable, good color, etc.Nozzles not so much.There is some esoteric goal to make nozzles "safe" - whisk is in opposition to "making them work."I wanna tell ya - this is one safe puppy.Useful, not so much.It is almost impossible to unlock. It takes two hands.A full can can require two hands to hold and pour.So, if you are a four armed mutant - this is your can.Fix 1; Defeat the safety lock (ergo, making the can less safe - but, more useful)Fix 2; Remove the safety lock all together.Fix 3; Replace the nozzle with another safe nozzle of your choice that does not require modification.The original/included nozzle may need to be broken in.Continued un-modified use could result in its becoming easier to use.All in all, it's still well made (with issues) and a good product.

It’s a fuel jug, it does what it’s supposed to do. Yes, the safety nozzles are irritating but can be replaced.
