🚰 Seachem 3113 Hydrotote Water Changer, Large 5-Gallon Capacity Review

It seems very thin, which worries me, but at least after a few months I have not had any problems. The pouring handle on the bottom is incredibly useful.

This is the best for RO/DI water storage, especially for studio apartment living! Just grab some good grocery bins to stash in the closet so your space doesn't look like an LFS.

Great for temporary water storage but not for everyday use. Re-pouring the water is impractical as a full container weighs 50 pounds and is slow to spill and when pouring there is nothing to hold onto at the bottom just a built in zip tie and as it is soft it collapses when poured .

Good handy product but about half of it is starting to leak. I recently bought two and one started leaking with very little use. I've had three before and two out of three started leaking but that was after a bit of use so I found it reasonable compared to my last one which started leaking after only a few uses.

I'm not sure how new they are but my LFS sells a lot of supplies including hard jugs like these (although not sure if they're Seachem) and they were very surprised when they saw a soft bag like this back then I came to fill it with reverse osmosis water. When dry they feel quite stiff and even a little brittle, but once filled they seemed surprisingly strong. They are somewhat flexible but maintain their overall shape. Just don't expect a collapsible hydrotoe to be a perfect cube when filled…
