I like the product it works good, but there is a couple of issues with the product, first it didn't fit the tank I purchased it for, as much as I tried I could not get the tank to fit in the boot, it was about a 1/4 of an inch too small,finally I took an industrial heat gun and heated up the 'boot' untill it got pliable then it would go over the tank, I doubt I will ever be able to get it off as I'm sure when it cooled down it contracted to it's normal size, but that's OK it's on there now so no need for it to come off. Second the points on the top keep the tank fitting flush against the holding bracket so I couldn't secure it with the locking handle, so I had to take a Dremmel to it and grind the points off so it would be a 'circle not a hexagon then it would fit flush up against the holding bracket so I could use the locking handle to keep the tank upright, all in all I'm satisfied with the product but these two issues were a challenge.
