Works great
Very useful to have around a shop and you can even wind it in reverse to siphon fuel out of other fuel tanks.

Simple, easy, and built tough.
I purchased two of these Oct 2022, just before price of gas skyrocketed. I used two of these to store regular unleaded gas for two years. I treated the gas twice. I recently did a gas test and it was still stable and no issues. I refilled the near empty tanks of my UTV, Truck, and Car and no issues. I'd highly recommend as the gas did not degrade. I stored both tanks separate from my house in my detached shop. They were stored inside and were not succumbed to extremely high or extremely low temps and of course out of the elements. Very easy to move around to yard equipment and vehicles.

ALMOST A GREAT CADDY
Bought this four years ago and i'm just getting around to reviewing it. back then i couldn't find a yellow one for under $500 so i bought a red one and painted it yellow then jazzed it up with some stickers. luckily the tank body hasn't leaked, the fuel level indicator float still floats, pump still pumps but when i went to pump some diesel into a tractor recently the hose cracked in half when i tried to unloop it from around the handle. wherever diesel had pooled in the hose it hardened the hose. not wanting to put another pvc hose on so the same would happen in another few years i went to the amazon and bought a 1 inch id diesel rated fuel hose. needed 1 inch id because the hose barb on the outlet of the fuel pump is 1 inch. it would be nice if the fuel pump inlet/outlet was tapped in NPT threads but they are fine thread fittings and the pump body is too thin to re-tap them so i had to keep the OE fine thread hose barb on the pump outlet. this necessitated cutting off one of the fittings on my new replacement hose so i could fit the hose onto the pump outlet hose barb. i also bought a 1" to 3/4" reducer fitting to mount a fuel nozzle to the hose. everything is functional again. no other issues so far. would i buy this again, yes but i would change out the fuel hose to the one just like i did. had it not been for the OE fuel hose getting hard i would've given this a 5 star rating.

Gas caddy
Works as it should, highly recommend changing hose clamp for gas nozzle to a heavy duty one, and use Teflon tape on everything that has threads.

So much for 35 gallons
There's a removable filter that nests inside the filler spout, and it's so ...aggressive(?) that you'll probably remove it before filling this caddy. It doesn't pass fuel fast enough to allow a normal fill. That's great if you have all day and some really nasty fuel, but the stuff coming out of a gas station fuel nozzle is already filtered. Anyway, I didn't want to overfill this thing, so as it passed 30 gallons, I slowed down a little. It pressure-cut the nozzle at 31 gallons (foam/bubbles) and I started looking down the chute as I continued adding gas. It topped out at the bottom of the fill spout, and I had to have looked like Biden for a moment, looking in the caddy, then at the pump display, then in the caddy, then the pump. 33.117 gallons and fuel was coming up the inlet. I might have been able to get another 0.05 gallons in, but I was defeated. Let's call it 33 flat. Let's not market a 33-gallon tank as 35, eh? The delivery hose (wire reinforced) is one size larger than the bib fitting, so you'll have to make up for that size difference by overtightening the hose clamp. It's a cheap clamp, so there's a fine line between "tight enough to seal" and stripping the thing. I added two stainless clamps once I got home. It's too late and too cold to test out the pump part, so I'll do that this weekend, and if it pumps well and doesn't leak gas from that ill-fitting hose, I may upgrade a star.

Caddy shipped with trash inside that will sieze the pump
I have rated this Caddy 1 only because there is no 0. Assembly was straightforward and not difficult. However, after loading this thing up with fuel, I attempted to pump out a couple gallons of fuel and the pump immediately seized. I investigated and discovered that some tiny bit of debris, a millimeter or two in diameter, had become wedged in the pump and plowed out a trough in the soft aluminum on the side of the rotor. This galled the metal, seizing the mechanism. I cleaned off the raised portions of the aluminum, filing it flat and gave it another go. It seized up immediately. So I used a hand pump to remove and filter the fuel I had just put in. The filter captured debris that appeared to be welding spatter, as well as other bits of dirt and debris.I shared this information with the seller, who sent me what appeared to be a computer-generated template response asking me to describe the problem (which I had already done in some detail). After a few communications back and forth, they offered to replace the pump, for which I give them credit.While awaiting the new pump, I removed about 0.05 inch of material off of the damaged side of the rotor and reassembled it. It seized again, although not as immediately. So far, I may have successfully pumped maybe one gallon out of the caddy although I have repaired that pump more than eight times. I have also spent a couple of hours washing out the bottom and siphoning out the debris from the factory.In the course of this adventure, I learned that the caddie was shipped with debris in the bottom, known to and euphemistically referred to by the seller as ”sundries”. This debris was sucked up immediately by the pump and, because of a poor design (soft aluminum walls) incapable of handling “sundries”, it immediately failed.I now have a cast-iron and steel pump mounted on this fuel Caddy because I absolutely cannot trust the original soft aluminum pump. The fuel filter provided by the manufacturer seems to be effective.If you feel compelled to purchase one of these, consider the likelihood that all of these identical looking caddies come out of the same Chinese factory. Because of poor quality control, you should expect that it will contain “sundries” that will destroy the aluminum pump. You should seriously consider somehow cleaning it out before you assemble it. Expect that pump will fail if it gets any grit in it (see other reviews about pump failure). You might even proactively purchase a better pump (cast iron doesn’t care about sundries) for installation. This thing was a nightmare that wasted hours and hours of my time.

Convenience
Works as intended. Quality of craftsmanship is great. I couldn’t build it myself any better. Reasonably priced.
