Comments about Reliance 8 Gallon Hydroller: Good quality, Comments about Reliance 8 Gallon Hydroller: Great for moving water from the tap to the camp. The wire goes over the water port for pulling by the handle on the rollers - not obvious. Pros

Best Uses
Comments about Reliance 8 Gallon Hydroller: I had no issues with the water spout or rate of flow. I like that the spout unscrews and attaches on the inside of the cap for storage and transport. Wheels and handle seem sturdy, but I've only used once so far and didn't have to roll it far. Carried enough water for two days of sponge baths, water for cooking and washing dishes. I would definitely recommend. Pros

Comments about Reliance 8 Gallon Hydroller: Don't know what all the issues are with this. I used it multiple times on campouts last year without a hitch. It's easy to fill and transport. If you fill it too full (beyond the level of the air release) of course your air release won't work. It's the same as any other water jug. Needless to say, we get our 8 gallons out of it. Easy to fill with a pump or hose at campsites. I've scout camped for 10 years with the 7 gallon jugs you carry, and this is by far waaaayyy easier!

Comments about Reliance 8 Gallon Hydroller: The concept is great however when I tipped it over to use the water spout the stream is very slow, yes I did have the plug off for the air pressure, but it made no difference. I finally unscrewed the entire cap and just poured the water out. The only reason I would not recommend it to a friend is because of the cost and poor performance of the spout Comments about Reliance 8 Gallon Hydroller: I loved this jug. It's huge and convenient and it rolls! But it broke on one of my trips back form filling it up. It was all the way full and the handle popped right out and we can't get it back in no matter how hard we try. My dad is going to see what he can do, but if not I may try to return. If you do get it, I would suggest not filling it all the way (which kind of defeats the purpose). Also, another minor problem with it is that it pours quite slowly. There's an air release at the top, but it doesn't seem to do anything unfortunately. Comments about Reliance 8 Gallon Hydroller: The hydroller made our camping trip almost feel like being at a luxury hotel!! But enough of the hyperbole. Pros
