Simple and effective. Does NOT leak if you screw the lid on properly. You cannot just hand tighten the lid. If you use a large screw driver or a piece of wood to cam the lid on tightly IT WILL NOT leak.

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.

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

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!

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.
