I purchased my DuraMax Flo n'go back in August of 2006. Back then, the manufacturer was Scepter; I believe now it's Moeller. It is part of my "fuel strategy" of a six-month rotation of approx. 50 gallons of gas between my S-10 pickup, this Flo n'go and three 5 gallon NATO cans. Every three months the fuel in the Flo n'go goes into the S-10, the fuel in the NATO cans goes into the Flo n'go, and the NATO cans take a trip to the gas station for fill ups. Stabil is used to keep the fuel from getting funky. (Of course, in between that procedure, the S-10 gets fueled up as needed at the gas station.) I devised this scheme because Phoenix, AZ (the fifth largest city in the USA) gets its petrol via two dinky pipelines, one each from California and Texas. Even the slightest problem with either can evoke a 70's era embargo panic - and that has happened. Now I can go two to three weeks without the need for a gas station hopefully giving the pipe line operators enough time to fix things.
Putting the Flo n'go in the bed of the S-10 allows for the fuel to siphon quite well. I use a Velcro strip to hold the pump lever open while keeping a close eye on things. I have not timed how long it takes to drain out; suffice to say it feels like "forever." On the plus side, it does give me enough time to catch up on some garage cleaning/organizing!
For topping my sport bike when I want to head way out of town non-stop from my driveway, the pump handle is very nice.
My experience with this product mirrors that of other reviewers, good and bad.
At least one gallon remains in the can even if you tilt it forward somewhat and it's too bulky to pick it up and shake it around to try and get the last of the fuel out.
The wheels have seized up and now act as skids, which is OK, but really... it's the 21st Century and they can't get wheels right?
The hose kinks easily and is difficult to un-kink. However, it's just sturdy enough to make it almost impossible to coil and store on the hanger regardless of those nice studio shots.
The handle/nozzle pump is delicate and requires a learning curve to keep from squirting all over the place. Make sure the nozzle is fully inserted into whatever gets the fuel before even slightly squeezing the pump lever! And it does dribble quite a bit.
I won't go into the manufacturer's "hose draining instructions" but it's laughable and a real pain. I don't do it.
In the interest of scientific research, I've counted 50-52 squeezes of the pump lever to output one gallon of fuel.
I have not yet experienced any issues with either of the two valves.
While the can has a "full" level line molded on the outside, the plastic is too thick to see the fuel inside without looking into the filler hole. In the recommended horizontal position, the fuel's surface area is almost 4 square feet and gauging the level rise is difficult. A messy and dangerous overflow is inevitable if you're not very, very slow and careful toward the end. It is better to under fill some than try to max it full up.
Since my Flo n'go spends most of its time parked in a corner, I haven't actually put it to all that much use; probably a dozen times. Though it does work well within my once-every-three-months duty cycle, I cannot imagine this unit being adequate for anything more, or slightly more, than that. If you need reliable, fast and tidy fuel storage/transfer equipment, you'd be better off to spend some more money. For my use, the price was OK.

used it this weekend to refill my generator on 4 occassions and it was great not having to hold the can or having gas splash on me. the hose was long enough to reach from my truck bed to the generator which eliminated any lifting and I had a nice siphon so I didn't have to constantly pump. however, on the down side is the thin hose that kinks easily and that damn button you need to push in as long as you're pumping.
Excellent company to deal with

This company is very customer oriented. I had to make a return and I have never had it go so well. I would definitely order from them again

Bad points, your hand gets tired quickly pumping 100 times to fill a lawn tractor gas tank. To make matters worse, the safety catch requires your other hand in a awkward position to disengage it.
Good points, throw away all your old gas containers and never have to lift, pour and spill gas all over the tractor ever again.
