Nice review. I do think I need to say something though. The ground clamp needs to go between the storage tank and the mower. When pumping fuel the spark danger is between the nozzle and the tank. Using an earth ground will not stop this spark.
I'm glad to finally have found a video of the 30 gallon tank in use. Not many out there on it and very few show it working. Just ordered one the other day, should be here in a day or 2. Can't wait for it to get here, and to see your next update on it!
We used the larger type of container in automotive shops for pulling fuel out of fuel tanks before dropping them. Made them lighter and easier to handle. Then you can pump the fuel back in when you’re done.
Hi Andrew great review. I am loving what Vevor has available. Everything you have demoed seems pretty good starting with the out door kitchen. 👍👍❤️❤️🇨🇦
Nice review, Andrew. I am always leery about inexpensive Jerry cans. I chose to go with Gelg when I replaced my plastic 5-gallon gas cans, and again when I first started to need to keep diesel fuel on hand when I bought my first tractor. They are somewhat expensive (about $60 each), but they are the same cans that are manufactured for NATO use. In this case, I chose to 'buy once, cry once'. They are built like a tank and will probably outlast me! At roughly $250, that fuel cart looks pretty tough to beat if it lasts! Take care and God Bless.
I bought on of these. Before I used it, I ordered a couple of gas tank sealer kits and lined it. So far so good. Next, i ordered black 3/4 gas hose to replace the cheap stuff that came with it.
Andrew, I may have missed something regarding the grounding strap since they don’t have a copy the user’s manual online. But I would think the grounding strap should be used between the pump and the equipment being fueled to eliminate any static discharge between those two objects. Also the webpage states the tank itself made of 201 stainless steel. We look forward to your videos every week.
Awesome, didn't know it was stainless, that's even better. The manual that came with it said to ground to good earth. Grounding to equipment makes sense.
I'm surprised they did not provide 90 & 45 Connectors for the Hose coming off the top of The Pump. That will be a Failure point. I'd add a Filter too. Thanks Andrew. Mike M.
Great products. I have one of their 58 gallon units for diesel that's enclosed in the heavy duty plastic box. It's a 12V unit with pump, filter, standard fuel hose and nozzle. It does require a 12V power source, and comes with a long power cable with typical alligator clamps. 95% of the time it sits in the shop, but is easily picked up with the tractor bucket to put in the truck or the back of the Mule/Ranger.
Another good review! Another TH-cam creator I am following just received some garden fabric from Vevor. They are putting in a huge garden and we really happy to get a product from Vevor to try, they already have plans to purchase some other items from them.
For the raw steel I'd like to see, Archoil 6200 g it's supposed to stabilize, condition, and prevent corrosion. edit + bond the ground to both ground and the appliance you are filling! Static charge is just that: static in position. Let the appliance; generators, mowers, etc equalize to the tank and to ground.
I have that same tank but last years model without the front casters. It is made from stainless steel according to their website. I have a number of items from Vevor and am happy with all of them. Are they the best made? No but they do the job. Their prices are better than most other manufacturers of similar quality.
Great review. I do have to chime in on the ground clamp. It needs to attach to the unit that is being fueled. Thanks again for another helpful video. 👮🏻♂️Chip
Great video. Love the idea of one large container and not five or six five gallon containers. Heck for the price of new fuel containers it's almost more economical to go with the large 35 gallon. Just a plastic can is $30 in our area.
Nice review, Andrew. The storage cart looks pretty nice! I need something different for the tractor. My 5 gallon cans are a pain, and that may do the trick! I'll keep an eye out to see how it holds up for you. Thanks!
Hey Andrew, nice video 👍🏻👍🏻. Just a suggestion for another video. Oxy-acetylene braze the filler spout to do away with the press fitted leak. This would make a good repair and safety precautions in welding something that had gas in it🤔
The jerry can is a neat bit of engineering (yes, the original design process was exhaustive, there's some great videos on the history of it), but the flexible metal spouts are not made like they were even 30 years ago, let alone during WWII. In my lifetime, I have never had one last. My best solution has been to rip that flexible portion off the main piece that locks to the can, and replace it with a piece of 1.25" rubber fuel hose. Then, rip the tip off of the flexible metal crappy spout and slip it into the other end of the soft rubber fuel hose. Secure both ends with a proper CRIMPABLE EAR CLAMP. Don't use a damned screw clamp, they just cut your hands, get in the way, and come loose over time. The good thing about this fix is that you can make your hose whatever length you want, and you can even install a petcock near the tip to meter your fuel as needed.
Another fantastic review Andrew! I am ordering 2 of those. I have been wanting a gas & diesel fuel storage setup, just have not done it yet. The price on this unit is GREAT and honestly I would have been VERY skeptical about it being quality without your review! So is there a code or anything I can use at checkout so they know I am a customer because of your review? Thanks again so much Andrew!
As long as you use the link in the video description it automatically tracks back to me. It's to early to tell about long term reliability with these, but so far so good. I am wanting a second one and I am thinking about bolting two to a pallet to lift in and out of my truck with the tractor.
@@TKCL understood. At that price, I think getting 5-6 years out of it would be a good deal. It looks to me like it would last for many years if taken decent care of and kept under shelter of some kind..
For year i use a plastic fuel cans for diesel fuel until some Ahole break checked me and my fuel went flying forward in my truck and breaking off the nozzles and didn't know it tell I got in the parking lot off my seafood buyer where I keep my boat and fuel was everywhere in there parking lot, but i was able to order a 55 gal tank from amazon under $500 and a pump from tractor Supply but i did like the5 gal race gas cans that have a vent on them ,thats another option
@@TKCL Thanks, I ordered mine today. We have several specialty vehicles that are not driven much. We can turnover that fuel and be better prepared for storms.
You trusted those ramps way too much lol. I would also like to see some kind of strap or something for the nozzle to hold it in place. Because if you are using the entire length of the hose, be nice to make sure the nozzle doesn't pop out while pumped the fuel
Have you opened the pump ? Some say the internals are plastic & not designed for gas, more for Diesel fuel, & that is why the pump locks up. Is that correct ? Thanks
Received mine in undamaged packaging also and the front wheel stem is bent just like this one. But the first time I filled mine, it is leaking fuel from under the welded reinforcement. My attempts to get a full refund from Vevor isn't going as it should. They offered a $71.00 refund and to "get it repaired locally"! Not acceptable. We're still in talks and hopefully they'll make it right.
the only problem is the pumps are cheap and seize up all the time. my tank is on its 2nd pump and its starting to act up like the other one. vevor is good about sending a new one. but, it being cast I don't see it holding up
Hey man awesome video im in the market for one just curious how has this held up? Not asking for a whole video just curious if its still worth it after a year

Andrew, have you purchased stuff from Vevor or have they just donated stuff to you? I ask because I've got over $1000 tied up in an alleged purchase they stated they were shipping and when I call to check on status, they cannot tell me anything other than they sent an email to some department. So Vevor has my money and I have no product! Not a good feeling. Not meaning to hijack your post, but didn't know how to contact you and since this video contains products from Vevor I guess it is kind of pertinent. Your viewers should know what of another viewer's experience with Vevor.
I have personally ordered a few items, paid for by me and they didn't know. All showed up within 3-5 days. Email me at kelleyscountry@gmail.com with your invoice or order number. I'll ask them even though I'm working with a marketing department.
I bought one that looks just like this one . Not happy with it. The pump is really hard to turn for the amount of fuel pumped, so that suks, The wheels will fall off unless you customize the axles with a grinder, Fuel gauge never worked, The good thing is,, it doesn't leak fuel. So replacing everything on it and all is well. 12V pump. metal filler cap. chuck the float gauge, and round over the shoulder on the axles so the axle nuts don't come loose. The company refunded my $ and let me keep it due to the cost of shipping. . ,,th-cam.com/video/rxT8XYsGtbI/w-d-xo.html
I just bought a pond pump from Vevor for my neighbor. Then I ran across an assessment of the company VEVOR. Not good at all. I mean as worse as you can get. Granted Vevor does not make anything - others do and Vevor puts their name on it and sales it. Customer service - non existent. Cheap prices overall but beware please.
Been using their products for years, I've yet to have any major problems. You got to know what you are buying as well, nothing high quality. But the price reflects that.
@@TKCL yes because I come to watch good videos and instead get paid advertisements from creators who want freebies from vendors. Ad revenue isn’t enough anymore I guess have to sell out to do things the slimy way. Shills gonna shill.

It was an unexpected treat, it will be useful. 🤣
@@TKCL how fast does it siphon ?
Fuel caddy’s are used in a lot of shops that have to drain fuel to change a pump or something.

Can you provide more info on what you used to line it with and the process?

I've already used it a lot since making this video, so far zero issues.
according to Vevor it is _____Highly Robust Steel Tank: Made of durable 201 stainless steel material, so should hold up great with out rusting
And I can confirm it is stainless, a magnet will not stick to it.

Hey Andrew, nice video 👍🏻👍🏻. Just a suggestion for another video. Oxy-acetylene braze the filler spout to do away with the press fitted leak. This would make a good repair and safety precautions in welding something that had gas in it🤔
Ooooh idea be extremely nervous getting any heat near it now after having fuel in it.
The seam isn't resest. Easily damaged. It has no plastic liner as original German Jerry Cans. Which enabled water filling. No inner rust.
Don't disagree with you on those things.

How is this working for you 8 months later? I'm wanting to get something for diesel and this seems like the best deal for the money.
No issues, the pump isn't the smoothest but it still works great. I use this several times a week.
You should do a video comparing this can to an authentic Wavian jerry can
The authentic can would win in every way.
1 year later, are you still happy with the Caddy? Thanks.

@@TKCL Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for the update. Regards
yes! wooohoo
Nice job on the review, does it vent through the screw on cap? Any issues with smelling the gas? Thanks.
It can vent through the hose and pump I'd imagine. So far zero smell issues and it's pumping great!
the only problem is the pumps are cheap and seize up all the time. my tank is on its 2nd pump and its starting to act up like the other one.
vevor is good about sending a new one. but, it being cast I don't see it holding up
I appreciate the feedback, glad to hear they offer pumps as well. I definitely wasn't expecting high quality for the price.
Being stainless steel , can you check for leaks on the 30 gallon can with water instead of gas ?
Sure, just make sure you clean and dry it well before adding fuel.
I also wouldn't leave water in it long not knowing the internal components of the pump.
I was thinking pouring a couple of gallons just to check the seams. No water through the pump, then just pouring it out. Thanks.
Hey man awesome video im in the market for one just curious how has this held up? Not asking for a whole video just curious if its still worth it after a year
Mine has pumped hundreds of gallons and is still working. The pump isn't the smoothest, but I did not expect that for the price.

Garbage, after one hurricane season the pump is frozen full of fuel. I just lowered my full with one hand
Interesting, mines working perfectly after a solid year of use.
@TKCL just an update. They replaced my entire unit since my pump was defective. Great customer service with my problem.
Glad they took care of it, I use mine several times a week and have for a long time. No issues
What did you attach the vevor clip to? What is it for??
It's for grounding and to stop static discharge that could cause a spark. Clip to whatever you are fueling.
Worried about rust from the inside out?
It's stainless
Add a fuel filter?
Wouldn't be a bad idea if I can find a high fuel flow gas filter.
