Just picked one up. Seems like a pretty good deal if anyone is on the fence and wanted to share the info.

Got one for Christmas. They are fun and convenient.

Quick note for anyone thinking they are strong: If you are mounting the WaterPort on your roof/rack, put it up there empty and then fill up. Do not try to clean & jerk the damn thing while it's filled with water to get on your roof.

..don't ask how I know this.

What was the out the door cost? Our Costco membership just expired and was debating on renewing it or not.
Thanks

Yuck

This weekend I went out and did some dispersed camping out in the dessert. My dog came running back up to me at one point at a trailhead and was all wet. I couldn't figure out where he had found water to get into, and then I realized he had rolled in a very fresh cow pie and was covered in it. I was very glad to have the Waterport (I got it on last year's Costco sale) mounted on the roof and filled to give him a cleaning right on the spot before I had to let him back in the 4Runner.

As great as it was to have for that purpose, overall I found the Nemo Helio pressurized water bag I had along with me more useful and versatile for camping. The thing is just so damn simple and portable, and it costs about 1/2 the price.

I agree. I bought one of the Waterports last time Costco had their sale on them and I really didn't find it very useful. It's HUGE for only holding 3 gallons and just totally inconvenient for pretty much all the stuff I would use it for. It's only handy to have pressurized water under certain circumstances and then 3 gallons really isn't enough for what I need it for. A regular old jug o' water is way more practical for the stuff I use it for. I have to lump this in with other products that seem useful but are really an answer to a question no one asked.

Obviously the opinions of others vary.
