 blitz 11010, 5 gallon, steel gas can, northern tool Apr 28, 2009
I have 12 of these sitting in my garage for when that unexpected disaster strikes and wasn't planning to use them. Yeah well, I was forced to use a few 5 gal cans when the power didn't come back on as expected - filled up the generator. Easy to fill up and easier still to carry when emergency strikes. I used the fuel on my generator and filled up my car just in case. I've stored fuel in these cans for 3 years without a problem... and still going strong....

 Leaked from day one Jan 23, 2008
I have used several of these over the years, and they all leaked. They leak past the rubber seal at the top when they are over 3/4 full. They leak when you are pouring fuel. I replaced the rubber seals to no avail.
The NATO cans I got from British Pacific, on the other hand, never leak.

 tough as nails and no leaks like its plastic cousin Jan 03, 2008
the only problem i have had is the finish comes off too easy they could improve that and make it just a little more dent proof

Blitz gas cans Oct 28, 2007
I have three of these cans that I bought during the Hurrican Katrina evacuation and they work flawlessly. For those who are commenting about leaks, it is probably due to your lack of using the rubber o-ring that comes with the can. Use the o-ring and nothing leaks. These are a keeper!

Can't recommend this gas can Feb 12, 2007
I'm a Brit living in America and so I'm used to the NATO style jerry cans. I bought one of these things thinking it was the same. It's not, it's the same size and shape, but that's all. It leaked through the big plastic threaded area from the second it held gas EVEN WITH THE RUBBER 'O' RING SECURELY IN PLACE. No matter how tight you try and do it up, gas oozes out. That's just dangerous.
Also its got a bottom that's got some kind of cheap folded seam. Blitz seem to make great plastic cans, but these metal ones are poor design.
If you want a metal Jerry can, find a NATO issue one, they have a big welded seam running around the whole can, there are countless European made brands and they're gas-tight and almost indestructable.
