Root & Vessel Classic Watering Can

This is a great watering can for watering plants on my porch. It is a good size - not too heavy, yet large enough to do quite a few plants. It is made well and has a good balance. The spout produces a nice "rain like" effect. I would recommend it.

Good, simple, workable watering can. What else do you want? It has holes in the right places and no holes in the wrong places, it is light enough to carry and heavy enough to smash a pest. If you need a watering can, this will do

Ordered yesterday and received today - none too soon with the drought we are having in NJ! I just used it. Here are my immediate thoughts:PROsturdy and well designed yet inexpensiveholds 2 gallons - it's heavy but it's mostly water weight - the plastic "can" is extremely lighttwo handles - nice touchCON: the water gets used up FAST. I have a one-gallon plastic "can" which has a slimmer spout and a smaller, more "delicate" rose (smaller holes, less holes). I feel like I have much better control with the 1-gallon, and in fact, I feel like the water lasts a lot longer. I figured the extra weight of the 2-gallon would be balanced by not having to constantly refill. However, I found myself refilling this MORE OFTEN than my 1-gallon. I let my large established plants fend for themselves - I'm mainly watering seedlings and transplants that need TLC - even with a rose, the spray feels forceful and some of the seedlings bent from the force. Perhaps I just need to learn to control this, or should save for bigger plants.

I ordered 2 of these. Our garden hose is having some issues, and it will not be fixed for a couple of weeks, so as a desperate attempt to save my garden, I decided to purchase a few watering cans. This was a great purchase! I have seen some reviews saying things about the "spout" leaking, I fixed that problem with a little bit of plumber's tape. It was not a horrible leak in the first place but if you over tighten the lid, it might cause that issue. However, when you weight the price of a roll of plumber's tape with some of the higher priced watering cans, it is a no-brainer. I will be purchasing several more of these cans, I am super happy with them. SO HUGE! 2-ways to hold the can, since it is quite heavy with 2-gallons of water inside. I have arthritis and have to hold them with both hands to use them. I honestly have zero complaints. You will not find a better price for this size container, I looked everywhere! Highly recommend! 10 out of 10

Does the job. I am on a weight restriction so it is just the right size so I can water my flowers and garden. Easy to carry and pour with two different handles.

Nice size. Leaks a bit though.

Very sturdy. I've had problems with the sprinkler heads breaking off of previous large watering cans. The construction of this one eliminates that weakness. It should last a long time.

This watering can works great. It arrived to me with the "shower" part missing, but the seller took care of it and sent a new one. Great customer service as well.
