Polyethylene Round White Beverage Dispenser

great

What can I say...I reluctantly paid more than I wanted for this dispenser, but I had no choice as there are few options and many sellers of better options don't ship to Canada (or they want too much for shipping). Rant over. Otherwise, this is a clean and very functional dispenser. Easy to clean, carry when full, and the dispenser has the stay-open feature when opened past a certain angle. 5 stars for function/quality, lost one star because damn...that's a lot of dough for a simple plastic bucket with a tap!

I bought this to hold liquid disinfectant we make up, then dispense. This dispenser does the job well. I bought six of the dispensers and have only tried one, but I am impressed with the sturdiness and the spigot, which was easy to mount (pair of pliers was all it took; don't over-torque). My lid doesn't fit terribly snugly, but that's not a huge detriment for my usage, as we dispense the solution into waiting containers quickly. I wanted white and was hoping that the opacity would be greater than what's shown in one of the photos. It's not as translucent as a typical "natural" HDPE milk jug, but it's see-through enough that it's easy to fill to your mark...IF you use a Sharpie to mark where the marks are. Otherwise, even with a pair of reading glasses and a little LED flashlight, it was virtually impossible for me to see the marks. So, this isn't a perfect item, but it's close enough for my needs --- and perhaps yours --- that I feel comfortable recommending it. If I open the other five and have issues, I'll edit this review.

I used this to make kombucha in bulk. I got good making it in one gallon jars so I stepped it up to this. The spigot I got doesn't leak or anything and made bottling a breeze. Only thing is the 6 gallon heating wrap I have doesn't fit perfect on it but it managed to work. Overall this thing is great if you want to step up you kombucha game and go bulk. I ended up getting 55 - 16oz bottles with one run. A lot of work but beats that store bought price kombucha and mine tastes better lol

The container itself is fine, but the spout leaks a little no matter how tight we fasten it. The material that holds the nut in place is not soft enough to really seal. If you need to steep something overnight or store liquid for longer it’s worth double sealing it from the outside.
