With recent severe storm activity, we wanted to make sure to have adequate fuel reserves for backup generator and this is a great product to have for fuel storage. The cans seal securely so no fuel vapors escape (using a rubber seal under the lid, latching mechanism for lid, and a pin to double secure the lid). The pouring spout while included is not attached to the can, but after opening the lid can be attached. My only improvement for this item would be to have a mechanism to attach / store the spout to the can when not in use.
