What the spigot is actually for

A plain water jug means tipping two gallons of water every time somebody wants a drink, which is awkward one-handed and worse on uneven ground. A spigot turns it into a tap: set it on a table or a tailgate, put a cup underneath, open the valve. It is the difference between a container you store water in and one you can actually use for washing hands, rinsing vegetables, brushing teeth or filling bottles without help.

Where 2.11 gallons lands

Two gallons is roughly a day of drinking and basic washing for two people, or a long afternoon for a family at a picnic site. Full, it weighs about 18 lb, which is carryable by the handle but not something you want to walk far with. That makes it a car-camping, picnic-table and tailgate container rather than a backpacking one, and a sensible thing to fill and keep in a cupboard before a storm.

Folding, filling and keeping it clean

Fill it from a tap or a jug, close the spigot before you move it, and drain it fully when you are done. PET will crease along the folds over time, which is normal for a collapsible container. Let it dry fully with the cap off before folding it away, because any water left inside a closed container will go stale and eventually smell. Rinse it before the first use and between trips.
