When the consumer has to watch a video to understand how a supposedly simple product like a gas can works, then that may be a sign that the product is over-engineered. I was given an empty Scepter gas can by a neighbor who was moving and filled it with 5 gals. of gas during a recent hurricane scare. When the storm dissipated, I chose to put the gasoline into my car. I'm a DIYer and am fairly mechanically-minded, but after screwing around with the gas can and locking ring for about 10 mins. and ending up soaked in sweat, I gave up and Googled the instructions. Once I watched the video, I understood how the product was supposed to work. Some better instructions on the gas can would've been helpful. For me personally, you've created a solution for a problem that didn't exist in the first place.
