Coleman Expandable Water Carrier Reviews

The Coleman expandable water carrier is the only thing I know that will reliably hold this much water (5gal), and then collapse to take up much less space when not in use.  It has a reliable spigot which has never leaked on me. My dad's hasn't leaked either, and he's had his for over 25 years.  The unit is collapsible, but think pizza box rather than stuff sack . — — The only gripe I have is the handle.  It's sturdy enough, but  it feels kind of flimsy and, more importantly, it is too small to be able to team carry or do an easy hand off.  Doesn't seem… read full review »

The Coleman Expandable Water Carrier definitely has some flaws.  With so many other alternative water carriers on the market, Coleman needs to do some revisions to their design.  Although it is light (without water), and collapsible for easy storage, when filled it is awkward to carry.  With the light material it moves and shifts and causes balance to be thrown off while walking with the carrier.  Its cube shape also makes it difficult to carry close to you without bumping into you n at every step.  It also has a tendency to "roll around" on a flat surface making… read full review »

This product came in real handy for a few differant activities for us. we took it with us on a hike in the ozarks. another time we took it camping. the third time, we used it for a birthday party.
