Review: This is the Jerry can that actually pours fast, will last, and doesn't leak (so far) - We needed a quality gas can that would accompany our UTV on our many forays deep into the backcountry. After cheaping out on a no-name Euro-style, pseudo-Jerry gas can (https://www.desertcart.com/dp/B0DY7BXPZY), I was so disappointed in the construction quality and shortcuts taken that I didn't even try to do a leak test on it. Like most of the cheaper pseudo-Jerry cans, it had a protruding marriage seam where the two halves were welded together - including on the bottom of the can so it wouldn't sit flat on a horizontal surface. Back it went the next day and I ordered this Euro-type mostly NATO spec Wavian can made in Latvia. It cost almost twice as much as the one I sent back, but. It has the recessed marriage seam and definitely has thicker metal, better workmanship, and thicker paint. As they say, you get what you pay for. We filled it up and took it on a full-day shakedown test in Idaho's backcountry mounted on our UTV. The 40-mile round trip on the trailer was 50% stop-and-go traffic and 50% at interstate speeds with lots of winding curves. Next came the 65-mile round trip from the trailhead over rough, rocky, runoff carved backcountry roads. These roads were often off-camber, jilting side-to-side, plenty of bouncing up and down, including crawling over the occasional fallen tree limbs crossing our path, etc. it was like a poor man's version of a shake table experiment. As best as I could tell, the can didn't leak a drop. Note that we did take advantage of the safety pin that holds the lid tightly shut. It works and I highly recommend you use it. What I didn't like: 1. The plastic storage clip for the pour nozzle comes uninstalled and doesn't hold the nozzle well at all. Someone might make some good coin by selling one that will. Make it out of non-ferrous sheet metal please. 👍🏻 2. The accompanying pour spout fell a little short (pun intended). It fit the can fine and didn't leak but I found it too short for some applications. On the positive side, it is self venting and you don't have to Dremel off part of the vent because this Euro can is true to NATO spec and doesn't have the dubious plastic spark arrester in the way. Some reviewers have commented about the detached small diameter plastic pour adapter being ridiculously hard or impossible to insert into the end of the larger plastic pour nozzle. I agree. However, it took 3 minutes on the drill press putting chamfers on the mating ends of the nozzle and adapter to made it tolerable. Yes, they still fit snugly but it was no longer ridiculously difficult to attach and detach the adaptor. See attached pics. I can imagine using the adapter for better control filling smaller tanks like a 4-cycle power washer, a portable Honda generator, a lawn mower, a snow blower, etc. For more gas thirsty applications, we ordered a longer Euro-type spout at additional cost. In my opinion, it should be offered as an option on this Jerry can for those who value the versatility and accessibility the longer length provides (https://www.desertcart.com/dp/B081HZGDDD). It too comes with that same useless plastic storage clip. 🙄 Edit 6/5/2025: I was able to get the plastic storage grip to hold slightly better - emphasis on "slightly". I used electrical tape to "fatten up the part of the nozzles that sits in the clip. It's a kludge that won't last long. Perhaps if you can get a large enough piece of heat shrink tubing... See three new pics attached.
Review: These are Excellent Fuel Cans - Overall, these are excellent cans, as good as my salvage NATO cans. These are European (Latvian) made, high quality, 0.9mm steel Jerry cans, manufactured nearly identical to NATO military-issue cans. The only real difference is in the precise shape of the spout opening (NATO can spouts won't fit these), and NATO cans having a changeable content plaque on them since they're usually only in green. These are designed to entirely seal, just like a NATO can, when properly closed. These are NOT cheapo, screw-on plastic child safety-capped containers. These will NOT leak, even when placed on their sides. Noting a common complaint, this means the cans may become slightly pressurized when going up in altitude or when atmospheric pressure drops. This is normal. But it means that the cans may spit out some fuel when opened if they're placed such that fuel is against the cap, or if fuel is sloshing around in the can. Just set them flat or tipped back when opening and give the fuel a chance to stop sloshing inside the can. It can also help to open the can slowly at first to let inside and outside pressures equalize. Some civilian Jerry can colors are intended to correspond to contents, so these will come with labels that match the colors. Red is for gasoline. Yellow is for Diesel. Blue is for kerosene. NEVER put water into any fuel can as it will react with the liner. I believe that Wavian has moved to blue plastic for their water cans. The newer safety spouts are mandated by US law. They actually work fairly well if you can lift the whole can with one hand and operate the spout with the other hand (easier with a 10-liter). But they're a PITA on a 20-liter. The base part of the spout is still steel. But the upper safety mechanism part is plastic with a metal spring inside.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ These are the best
*by A***S on April 12, 2026*

These are the best. No more dangerous plastic gas cans ever. Quality is outstanding. One thing to have in mind is that the nozzle holder is made of plastic, so I added some Velcro wrap to keep it safe in place.
