I have 3 bottles, one 11 oz and two 20 oz. I am using the MSR WhisperLite stove, and the 11 oz will last about 3 days if your cooking for two people. And the 20 oz will go about a week for two people. The cap has a rubber O-ring that seals the bottle from leaking. So no need to over tighten the cap, just give it a good snugging and your good to go.

It has been great for years but now includes a safetylid - unfortunately in my opinion.
different sizes for minitrips to weeklong camping

These bottles are sturdy and well-made. They take a beating, and still do not leak. Among other uses, the loop in the lid allows you to open lids that have been over-tightened (by putting a branch through the loop to get more torque). The little bottle is good for shorter trips, while the larger ones can be used for larger (or more cooking-intensive) trips.

These bottles will last until you loose them- there's no way of breaking them. Also cheaper than other brands. The cap has a big loop for clipping it to your backpack and also two small holes inside to handle the fuel without spilling. In Aconcagua the porters use mules to get your stuff to BC, this is your best option, no leaks at all. Hope this helps.

These are awesome. You should get them..but know you won't need the biggest bottles unless you do a ton of cooking.

I mean, really, you fill it with gas, put the pump in and let'er rip. It works. It doesn't leak. Rinses out easily enough if you want to try smuggling it on board a plane.

These bottles work great for carrying any fuel you need and Ive never had a complaint about leaks

MSR makes a great product. This is no different. Although it is something as simple as an aluminum bottle, it is important that you get something that is made well. This bottle doesn't leak, is VERY sturdy, and you can put cool stickers all over it! I wouldn't recommend any other fuel bottle.

What can you say, it just works and its light. I have 2 20oz and 2 10oz. I find that I use the smaller ones more with my WhisperLite just because I'm not cooking for an army. But always good to have multiple choices!

You should never have any problems with this bottle and it should last you as long as you need it to. These things are basically indestructible under normal circumstances and I have never had any leaks or problems. Great product at a great price!!

To whom this may concern:

I just purchased a 2009 Harley Davidson, Sportster Custom XL. During the delivery process my sale rep informed me that there is only a low fuel indicator light. This being a new Harley and I was not sure of what the MPG's are for the city/highway I need some peace of mind knowing I wouldn't run out of gas. I seached the web to find BackCountry site and also realized this site was cheaper than the HD dealer and other sites, to include, having the larger 33 oz. MSR Fuel Bottles with free shipping. Now I carry three of them in my saddle bags with no worries about running out of gas!!!!!

Thanks,

Satisfied Customer

Short of runing it over with a tank, these are almost impervious to damage. I have the big one since we like to cook and use it all the time. Paired with whisperlite international stove is a great combo. Been burning Coleman fuel without issue.

Used this to carry Coleman fuel for an old Optimus 8R. Even in the trunk of the car for 8 hours at work, there was no leaks. Couldn't say the same for the stove. Well designed and seems real strong.

I use these 30 to 33 oz. MSR fuel containers to safely store and transport 2-stroke gas mix on my Golden Eagle converted Mongoose bicycle. These containers provide me with additional fuel capacity and range.. Going 30 plus MPH on flat ground without pedeling is a blast.
