Review on Midwest Model 5600 Gallon Spill by Matt Reid

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice lenses but HORRIBLE spouts

Don't buy. I bought 2 and each one broke the spouts and either way it's a terrible design. The first was put into service, everything seemed fine, but towards the end of the season the spout's cap broke so it leaked with each use and had to be discarded. It was used for power tools and a backup generator and the gas flow was very slow but tolerable given the small amount of gas released. The second sat in the garage untouched for a couple of years, but when it was finally put to use, the spring mechanism of this spout jammed on first use and began to leak. It was used to fill up a car but this time the slow flow rate was so painful it drained all 5 gallons. It lasted about 8 minutes, felt like half an hour. ridiculous.
