Okay, so you live on the 10th floor of a 20 story high rise and there’s no way you can fit a 55-gallon water barrel on your patio. However, you do understand the need to store water or at least the ability to store it. So what do you do? You can fill your bedroom closet with 2-liter bottles full of water or you can slide your Water Bob from underneath your bed and have the ability to secure 100 gallons of water. While I still recommend having a couple of cases of bottled water set aside, there’s no question you’ll need more, way more to survive a couple of weeks. Additionally, with one of these you don’t have to worry about, “when was the last time I cleaned the tub?” or worry about slowly losing your water because the drain isn’t fitting properly and it stores water for up 4 weeks.
The waterBOB® is constructed of heavy-duty 10 mil food grade Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) plastic. This material follows and stays within US FDA guidelines.

You’ll also find convenient accessories including the waterproof ‘Survival Kit-In-A-Can’ (Cruiser® model), or the durable multi-tool and serrated lock-back knife combo pack with cordura case (Mariner® model).
