I have one of these and it leaks around the cap; do they all leak in anyone speak to that if I buy another?

I have 2 that do not leak even when I leave them tilted forward on top of a trailer so I can use them like faucets. Is it possible you just have a bad gasket in your cap?

We just received two of these 2 1/2 gallon bottles and they smell terribly. What is the full proof method to get rid of the smell permanently?

I rinsed mine out thoroughly with bleach water. Then I rinsed out the bleach water with plain water. No smell remains.

Is there a spigot for this? Full, this weighs half as much as my gf.

No spigot.. at 2.5 gal weight is about 21 pounds
