Works great for me. Recommended.
I'm really glad I bought this. I use it to fill my riding mower and push mower. It was easy to fill at the gas station. I only filled it to 10 gallons the very first time to make sure I could lift it easily into the back of my SUV (the instructions said it should be taken out of the vehicle and placed lying down on the ground to fill - which seems like a good idea). I had no problem hefting it up into the car, but, especially if filled to max, I could see how some smaller folks might have a harder time (I'm 6 feet tall). So, if you can't lift 14 gallons of fluid by yourself, either don't fill it all the way, or take someone with you to help you.I have no problem using it, either. Loosen the air/vent valve, and open the two ball valves at the bottom (one for the tank, the other for the hose). As another reviewer said, it's easier if you lay it on its back to do this, then stand it up. Takes all of ten seconds. Simply reverse the process when you're done to get it ready to store. You might want to close the ball valves first, then finish pumping out whatever small amount might still be in the hose itself.You do have to actually pump the handle, which does require both hands, since you have to also hold in the little safety button. A bit annoying, but, hey, you're probably using this to fill up smaller engines like mowers and whatnot. You're probably not using it to fill your car or truck. So, you might have to switch hands while filling if you get tired. Since the gas gets pumped out in little batches, it might splash, rather than just smoothly pour, so you might want to be sure that the end of the spout is really inside the tank, or filling along the side or something, to minimize splash-back. Took only a second or two to see how to do it on my mowers.The wheels are not rubber or anything fancy like that. They're just plastic disks. But, I generally don't need to roll it more than just a few feet. I roll it just out of garage, pump it, then roll it the few feet back in. I'm not dragging it around like rolling luggage through an airport.So, it's not a magical device. The fact that it holds a lot of gas also means (when full) it will be on the heavy side. The fact that it's a manually-operated device means you burn a couple of calories using it, rather than flipping a switch or something. But it does what it is supposed to do, and it works great for me. I've had no problems with it, and would recommend it.UPDATE - 26 November, 2014The pump handle/nozzle assembly recently broke. I called the company (Scepter), and for $20, they sent me a replacement. Swapping the handles was easy. So, while I would have preferred to have had the one moving part on this tank be constructed more sturdily, it was easily fixed when it finally broke.

Great quality and value.
It is what I was looking ( Easy to use and store) with quality materials and gas capacity.

Should be much, much better
I've had this tank since December in an attempt to try and take advantage of the grocery store fuel perks in my area. It has worked to help maximize the amount of gas I can get at each fill up (usually 30-35 gallons per fill). That is about the only real positive thing I can say about this tank.1. It is extremely cumbersome to move about. Half the time the wheels don't even turn and even after I loosen them, they tend to tighten themselves back up over time.2. The pouring valve/pump handle is biblically slow! Forget about hand pumping. Not even a 14 year old boy with a subscription to Penthouse has the hand stamina to pump all the fuel out of this thing in one session (not that it's even possible to get all of the fuel out with the pump) So gravity feed it is, once you get the tank in position to use the earths gravitational pull, it's time to get out the sun dial and some Sta-bil. That's right! The fuel will most likely go bad before you can even get it out of the tank. This is with the vent full open on the fill cap too.3. I hope you like gas on you hands/cloths/floor or everywhere else you don't want or intend it to be. I've used this tank about 10 times and tried many different methods and I cannot fill anything without spilling at least a little bit somewhere. The ball valves are all very good, but the placement of the valves and the hand pump mechanism make it nearly impossible to not spill some gas when taking it apart to put away.4. All of the previous things could maybe be overlooked if it wasn't for the most glaring and horrible thing about this tank. YOU CAN'T GET ALL OF THE FUEL OUT OF IT! Well, that's actually a false statement. You can get the last 2 or so gallons out if you take off the fill cap and turn it upside-down over a bucket or something with a wide mouth. Then you've got 2 gallons of gas in a bucket. There is absolutely no way with the included items to get that last 2 gallons out without using the bucket method.So, I learned the hard way. I didn't want to have to carry around three 5 gallon tanks so I bought this. Well, the jokes on me. The 3 jugs would have been cheaper, cleaner, easier to handle, and able to use all 15 gallons of their combined capacity.
