Easy Pour Watering Can, 2.6 Gallon, Black (20-47287CP)

This is a great watering can! The hole is a bit small and may require a bit of finagling if you have an odd faucet (such as our filtered water side faucet used for humidifier refilling). It is well balanced and has the second handle which rotates and "autoadjusts" based on how full the container is. It goes all the way through the can itself which was a smart way to go. THis way, no dinky pivot mechanism which would just break, or no cheap plastic-welds needed. Not quite the biggest watering can, but significantly bigger than most, plus it is pretty sleek. Note that the end does LEAK somewhat since there is no rubber on the joint between the can and the watering end. I recommend taking a microfiber or thin sponge or whatever and put on the bottom of it. Then duct tape and stick it to the watering-can side, and use duct tape to make a non-sticky circle ring on the endmost side. In other words, don't duct tape both ends to the can itself. This will absorb small leakage and allow you to still easily rotate the head as needed. The rainfall and pour options are extremely nice to have, using one for refilling humidifiers,etc, and the showerhead for plant watering.

The dual handles help a lot, and it's nice to be able to just turn the nozzle to switch the flow.

I have had this watering can four around four years. I Love the dual handle. Hold the fixed handle when transporting and tipping to water. Hold the other handle for better control while watering. I love the large 2.6 gallon capacity. Although other reviews complained that the rotating handle popped off, I have never had this happen. Also the complaints about the spout cap falling off…I have never experienced this issue. What I do have trouble with is that it seems after I use dissolvable plant food, the holes on the spout seems to clog and all I get is the pour option. It takes a few waterings before the sprinkle ability reappears. This is tolerable given it’s light weight, high capacity, convenient dual handle, easy fill features and built in pour or sprinkle capability.

This is my 2nd purchase of this watering can. I have 2 sets of rain barrels, so one can is filling while watering with the other. I dump about 8-9 cans when watering the gardens and flowers. My first can is 2 years old, and still works as well as the new one. I really like how sturdy the body is, the large water capacity, the offset filling hole and the ability to rotate the head to pour water or sprinkle. The rotating handle seemed like a good idea, but I have removed it off of both cans. Here is what I can tell you after reading other reviews. Don’t use this in your house, and don’t use this on seedlings or delicate plants. The orange end cap can fall off if bumped with enough force. This has only happened 3-4 times, and it is easy to pop back on. There is a lot of water in this can, if you tilt it too fast you will get a lot of water. The water also does not immediately stop when you tilt it up, which is one reason you should not use it inside your house. The entire rotating head is pressed onto the can. It is not a perfect seal and water can drip at this connection. That is another reason to not use it inside your house. And for that one reviewer, you are correct, water spills out while carrying it if you over fill it. Might I suggest listening to classical music?

It is amazing how difficult it is to find a plain old watering can. So, I bought this instead. It's okay, I mean, you can fill it with water and then pour the water out. But, the hole to fill it is too small. It's fine for a hose, but I fill it from a bucket (with liquid fertilizer.) As far as pouring, it has two options: single stream, or sprinkle. The single stream is kind of handy for bigger plants. The sprinkle option has too heavy of a flow (IMHO.) Sometimes, the "rose" (where the water comes out) will simply fall off after using it for a while (the weight of the water pushes it off the end.) And, the plastic cap (the little disk with the holes) actually came loose and fell off too. It all snaps back together easily, but it's annoying. Overall, it's not terrible, but it's not fantastic. Well, let me say one nice thing: I do like the large capacity.

There are a lot of things that I like about this watering can. I like the double handle. I like that the double handle swivels. I like the 2.6 gallon size - which is about 22 pounds. Not too heavy, but a decent amount to water plants. I like the dual spout too. But that is where things start to fall short. The end just snaps on, instead of screwing on. That means it isn't a real tight fit and it tends to come off unexpectedly. Also, the dual spout is a fabulous idea in theory, but doesn't really work well in practice. If the can is full, and the spout is in "shower" mode, you get a nice shower out of the bottom half, but if you tip farther, the shower get interrupted by the "pour" spout, and now you have just flattened your poor little plant. On the other hand, if you put it in "pour" mode, water still comes out of the shower part as well, so the water flow diameter is not limited like you would expect. Now your floor/patio, etc. is wet. Also, while I thought the color looked really cool...it is, in fact, quite HOT. That is, if you leave water in the can, it absorbs heat (especially in direct sunlight), and then you are watering your plants with 110 degree water. Ouch! Update: After using it for a couple of weeks, I have managed to destroy multiple plants as the spout is now falling off every time I use it. In addition, the swivel handle is a nice idea, but it needs to have some kind of stopper on it so it doesn't fall under the can. The picture shows both handles in an upright position on it own, but that is not reality. The swivel handle falls down as soon as you let go of it, and if you let go of that handle first, the swivel handle falls all the way down - UNDER the can. That means you can't set the can down on the ground until you physically grab that swivel handle again and pull it out from under the can. VERY annoying. At this point, I am totally done with this thing and I am sending it back.

If you're not sure if you want to spend $100 on a watering vessel, keep in mind that this one will very likely be the last one you'll need. It's beautifully built, feels good in the hand, plenty of control and optional ways or pouring. A true pleasure to use.

Cumple con su función y la capacidad que tiene es ideal para regar las plantas de mi terraza con una sola carga.

Cumple lo anunciado, ha sido satisfactorio su uso y apariencia el tiempo que tengo usándola (un par de meses).

Not sure what people are complaining about, as I've found this watering can to be quite useful. The head is pressed onto the can, and could fall off, but in my extensive use that has only happened once (human error). The second handle allows for better flow control from the spout. The plastic is strong and is able to hold a full tank easily. The off-centre hole makes filling a breeze. Like most things with gardening, care and consideration should be used; so don't go full-tilt (read: dump) the water out or you will disrupt your soil and stems/branches.

Works great apart from the fact that when I have the nozzle set to the shower-mode, after I'm done it keeps dripping water for a minute or 2 after. Sometimes the nozzle likewise has a hard time getting a good seal and leaks as well while watering.
