Pros & Cons
Pros
It is quite stable and well built and stores many oil changes worth of used oil effortlessly. Everything is fabricated out of materials that will hold up under years of service. I really like the wheels and casters.
Simple to use versus the mess of leaky hand operated barrel type pumps. If you're draining anything with a large oil capacity, you'll want to drill out some of the mesh in the bottom of the funnel.
For my modification i used:3, 1/2” npt fittings with 3/4” barb hose end. Npt ball valve, female ends1, conduit hanger #1.
Cons
This is not a horrible product, but really how complex does it have to be to drain oil into it? It fails miserably at everything else. Going to throw it in the dumpster and order a good one. This is the fourth time it has leaked.
This thing is awful it overflows all the time and has no regulator for the drain. It really needs a shutoff valve on the drain hose for more controlled drains.

This way any remaining oil in the hose above the valve cutoff can drain easily inside the pan
Price
This is a great oil can for the value
This is the third one i bought so yea id say this is a great deal for the money
I looked around and for this price i could not find a better waste oil collector
Seems to be a decent affordable tank
Competitiveness
Actually better than the lincoln brand that i have
Most of the competition had parts made of plastic and were too small
Oddly enough this is the same unit hf sells
