Review: Reliability, Durability, Survivability - Very well built and durable. Won't corrode and safe for drinking water. I live in a place where we can get fresh clean water from a spring underground. The water tests 100% pure right out of the rock. This is what we use to collect and store the water in. It's the drinking cooking water for us and our animals. Only thing city water here is good for is hygiene( and waste), dishes laundry. This seems to be a blow mold like plastic which is also a food grade quality. It holds 5 gallons of water (in our case) . We've had no issues with leaking even if it fell on it's side while closed. For those familiar with the military "jerry" cans this is the same basic size and dimensions of those. I'm very impressed with this and want to purchase more. Review: Can't beat them for H2O storage and transport - Best portable H2O storage container. Tough and durable. I bought mine after seeing them survive a Boy Scout troop for years. If they can survive that, they can survive anything. Just a little pricy, I guess it's one of those buy once, cry once deals for these. ## Features - Portable Water Storage Solution: Offers a reliable and compact solution for safely storing water for emergencies, outdoor adventures, or camping trips. - Durable and Safe Design: Military-style design ensures long-term and secure water storage, making it withstand impacts and tough conditions while protecting against unwanted leaks and spills. - Convenient and Efficient: Easily carry the water jug from car to campsite with the super-strong molded-in carry handle, offering maximum convenience and portability wherever you go. - Heavy-Duty Capacity: Featuring a 5-gallon, 20-liter capacity, this water container makes storing large amounts of water quick and easy, making it a must-have for outdoor activities or emergencies. - Dimensions and Material: Made from BPA-free, high-density polyethylene plastic, the lightweight container measures 13.7 x 6.8 x 18.8 inches and is ideal for long-term use in demanding conditions. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B001IV8IYA | | Additional Features | Leak Proof | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #14,983 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #112 in Camping & Hiking Hydration & Filtration Products | | Bottle Type | Water Jug | | Brand Name | Scepter | | Capacity | 665.6 Fluid Ounces | | Color | Sand | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (1,788) | | Included Components | Scepter 05935 Military Water Container - 5 Gallon (20 Litre), AM Sand | | Item Dimensions W x H | 6.8"W x 18.75"H | | Item Type Name | Scepter 05935 Military Water Container - 5 Gallon (20 Litre), AM Sand | | Item Weight | 4.5 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Scepter | | Manufacturer Part Number | 05935 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | 1 year | | Material Type | Plastic | | Material Type Free | Bisphenol A (BPA) Free, Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) Free | | Model Name | 05935 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Product Care Instructions | Hand Wash Only | | Recommended Uses For Product | camping, emergency management, off-road, off-grid adventures | | Reusability | Reusable | | Shape | Rectangular | | Sport Type | Basketball | | Style Name | Water Container | | Theme | Military | | UPC | 063923996133 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Bottle Type:** Water Jug - **Brand:** Scepter - **Capacity:** 665.6 Fluid Ounces - **Color:** Sand - **Material:** Plastic ## Images ![Portable Military Style Water Storage Jug & Container for Camping, 5 Gallon, Sand - Plastic Beverage and Hydration Dispenser for Outdoor Drinking, RV and Emergency Survival - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61GejgcqPTL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Number Of Items** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Why are these so expensive? they cost 3x-4x more than the aqua-tainer storage, and actually store less water. is there a reason anyone could share?** A: These are heavy duty water containers meant to live through a lot of abuse by the military and by all of us whitewater rafters, they take a beating but are tough. This isn't something you will find in a wal-mart. They are made out of a much thicker material and meant to last for years. I hope that helps! Kindly, Renee **Q: Anybody figure out the threading on the pour spout?? Spout is 3/4" diameter but different from conventional garden hose threading.** A: 3/4 npt. you can get a 3/4 npt to garden hose adapter on amazon **Q: Has anyone purchased these from the seller/shipper spreetail? Are they authentic?** A: Authentic? I do not know. Superbly built, heavy duty water cans? Absolutely. I use these camping on the desert, bolted to my Jeep trailer. It takes hard use and extreme conditions without issue and still looks new. **Q: Is it $61 for one can or for a 2 pack?** A: I paid $64.95 for one when ordered mine March 25,2020. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reliability, Durability, Survivability *by J***D on March 16, 2026* Very well built and durable.
