Love it, dimensions in review
Like every other reviewer, I was very happy to see this container is BPA free. I don't know why large BPA free containers are not easier to find yet but it's especially important for a long-term storage container. Also like every other I think the ability to store the spigot inside the container is brilliant. Note that there is a sticker over the hole in the lid that goes down to the "neck" of the spigot. If you are going to store this for a while or take it camping you may want to put a piece of tape over it to keep dust / dirt / bugs out after you remove that sticker the first time you use it. Even brand new the container is *absolutely* odorless. The sides have raised graduations / level indicators. Every half gallon is labeled (with another in between, marking quarts) as well as each liter. According to these marks the container can hold a bit more than 2.5 gallons before actually being filled. I noticed for some reason the dimensions of this container are not anywhere in the description presently. Since this is rather important for an item you may be storing (especially if you're buying enough for a family's emergency water) I measured mine so I could share them. Dimensions for a FILLED container are 9" x 12" x 7-3/4". That last 7-3/4" width includes a *slight* bulging of the large sides when full. Please leave a comment with any questions or click Yes if helpful!
