I don't understand how this could leak... Where are the seams? Does this flex/bulge when filled with water, or does it hold its' shape? Use indoors?

We use ours for our horses- who can be rough on things, it is also outside in extreme tempertures and has not cracked and does not leak. It does hold it's shape. It's an awesome product!

Also it appears to be seamless (one soild piece.) It sounds like the customer whom stated it leaked must have gotten a defective one.

I doubt it could ever leak unless you punctured a hole into it. There are no seams & it holds its shape. I don't recall it either flexing or bulging when we filled it with water. The water will stay unless you pump it out.....no worries, it will not leak. Hope this helps. By the way, we just went through a brutal cold streak here where we live & today it still has water in it - no leaking. So it didn't even crack from the extreme cold. It could be used indoors if you like, I wouldn't worry about that.

It very durable & holds it shape. I use mine out in the barn for my horses for water. It is a solid tub and has no seams. Also, it is very thick. I even keep a water heater in it during the winter to keep the water from freezing. I really like mine.

Mine has never leaked. It holds it's shape well too. I use it for water for my horses

It is inflatable. You pump air into it. Do not over inflate it, just enough to make it firm. Remember that air pressure is temperature sensitive. On a cool day you might think there has been a loss of pressure due to a leak somewhere. Enjoy.

Hi wally, I have no issues with this item ..... It doesnt leak and it works well .. I have had it for over 3 months now and use it daily for breakfast and dinner jucing .... The leaking issue I believe comes when you fill the jar with fluid above the max line.... You can however overfill the jar with dry stuff like fruits and such... Hole that helps

The water nozzle is adjustable to three positions, you need to decide which one works for you. I personally do not have a problem with "leaks" in my home.

I can't give you a reason for the leak without having it inspected by an expert which I certainly am not one. I had a lava bun that leaked and it looked to me like the leak developed along the crease where the seat was folded for shipping and storage. These would seem logical since folding and opening any plastic will weaken the plastic over a short period of use. I have several plastic containers with plastic hinges and latches that were designed out of high impact plastic and after a few hundred uses they broke along the fold line. Just a guess on my part.

I think it will have some leakage from the seams. I think I had read in the directions before we set it up, it stated that it would have a little leakage from the seams. We've had no problems with ours yet, the only thing I noticed was fading of the colors from the sun!!

we put a huge tarp under it in the bedroom we used. Caution if it springs a leak the tarp may not hold it all. We have not had any trouble with ours. We used a hose from the bathroom to fill it. When we emptied it we ran a hose out the window and siphoned it. We since have gotten a submersible pump to do this.

Mine doesn't have any leaks. Maybe you got a defected product and probably should contact the store to replace it for you. (Mine doesn't get deflated very often. I mean I inflate it like once a month or once in 3 weeks).

As with other posters, we've never had an issue with ours leaking and have been using it for many years. Sounds like a defect, or like it may have been cracked by dropping/dishwasher/etc.

I haven't had this problem. Have you tried tightening it to see if that helps? I remember at least one other reviewer had the same problem. Once he/she tightened it, it no longer leaked. Hope that helps

I don't use often. Only for sewing projects. But mine has never leaked when I've filled with water.

Before we filled this with plants, we put it outside with the plugs left in. It rained, and it did hold water. I didn't check to see if it leaked, though. If I planned on using it indoors, I'd probably put a tray under it to catch drips. Indoor plants need proper drainage, too.

I would not use this for leaking liquids...it may hold up but does not appear to be made for that unless you put a plastic bin inside of the compartment to put the liquids in....

I have 2 of these and no leak issues with either. Where is it leaking? If you are sure it's a seal issue, return and get a new one.

I would trust it in a lunchbox. Never had an issue with leaking. The design is great. It is slightly curved but nothing too dramatic. It would be safe to call it mostly flat.

Just received mine today, after reading the reviews I was expecting a leaker. The blue fill cup will seat into place with pressure. I turned it upside down with the blue rim on my counter, pressed and jiggled. I heard it snap into place. No leaks between the blue and base. I did notice, however, if you put more water in the fill cup ( ie, fill it up twice) That is more water than the base will hold and it wants to seep a little at the other joint. This shouldn't be a problem now that I know. I won't put so much water in the top.
