![]() Materials with BPA are used for food and beverages, and have been found to seep into the food or liquid that they contain. As such, it’s worth checking to see whether your vessel is BPA free-and ideally also BPS and BPF free. ![]() Most camping water containers are made from plastic. Spouts are the simplest mechanism, generally little more than an added tube or rubber insert that gives you greater control over how fast the water flows out of the camping water container when the lid is unscrewed. Spigots seem straightforward, but in practice some are much easier to use than others, (I had to brace one hand against the water container to get a spigot in my test to move) and the strength of their flow can vary. With a tap, you must have one hand free to press down on the top lever, but very little water will be spilled out while in use-useful if you are camping somewhere where water is scarce. Whether you choose a camping water container with a spigot or a spout is largely a matter of personal choice. The tradeoff for durability is almost always cost (with the exception of my best overall pick, the heavier duty camping water containers tended to be more expensive) and packed size, as the thicker the plastic is the less likely it is to collapse. Typically, the thicker the plastic, the sturdier the camping water container will be and the longer it will last. Consider how much space you are willing to dedicate in your vehicle to your camping water container before committing to a purchase. While some car campers and overlanders are looking for a giant blue jug that can hold all the water they will need for the weekend, others will be carefully testrising everything into the back of their car along with sleeping bags and camping stoves, hoping they won’t have to leave their camping chairs at home for lack of space.
