I bought several of these in case of an emergency, to have water on hand for myself and my dogs. They are very sturdy and the perfect size. My only issue is that they do have an odor. I found if you remove the caps for about a week before filling, it dissipates the odor substantially - but not entirely. But for emergency use, knowing they are food grade, I'm okay with the slight odor.After seeing the review about the leaking cap, I did test mine out. Although I knew I would never store them in the position that was shown in the video, I did tilt them to see. First time, no leaking. I then removed the cap to see if there was a rubber seal; there is. I then closed the cap again and tried once more - yes, indeed it did leak! I removed the cap again and put it back on: no leaks. I set it on its side, then tilted it, no leaks. It does seem intermittent. I'm guessing it has more to do with the way you screw the cap on - perhaps the threads have to align just perfect. But, for me, I intend to store them upright - so it won't be an issue. Just super happy to find food grade containers!
