Huge funnel.......and a ton of uses

The funnel is huge and that's why we bought it. We needed a large funnel that would help prevent spills when transferring clean water, grey water, and gasoline in a very delicate eco environment during a desert art and music festival. Most of the spills we experienced in the past happened while moving the liquids from the collection containers to our evaporators, camp toilet, or storage containers. The large Hopkins funnel served us well in all capacities and prevented all spills. What was an added bonus was the screen that snaps into the bottom of the funnel. When transferring grey water, it collected hair and food particles that went right into the trash instead of our evaporators or camp toilet flush tank. In the past we had to create a makeshift screen out of an old t-shirt to catch the solids. After cleaning the screen and funnel thoroughly we used the funnel for collecting melt water from our coolers to use in our camp solar showers. On the last day we used the funnel to transfer gasoline from a bulky and hard to manuever 5 gallon container to a smaller 2 gallon container to transfer gasoline to our truck's gas tank. I'm happy to say we had basically zero spills of any kind on this trip from using the funnel. For a few bucks it was an essential purchase for our camp.

Amazing funnel if you want a large one.

Love this thing. Just used in today to change the oil on my new Corvette and it set in the sump tank perfectly and let me dump 2 qts in at a time. No leaks. I then used to to fill 9.5 qt bottles with the old oil. While putting the old oil back into containers I noticed the screen caught a large piece of silicon that must have come out of the engine. From what I understand, that is normal with a Z51 and is why GM wants the oil changed at 500 miles. Have no doubt about it, this is a serious funnel and pretty big but also fits nicely into a standard qt oil bottle and in the dry sump talk on the newer Corvettes.

It's huge and you'll love it. I bought it for filling our 5 gallon water jugs for our RV. Some campground spigots don't have a place to attach a short hose. This thing (because it's so huge) combined with the height of our 5 gallon cans - keeps you nice and dry while filling water cans. I saw a similar one at a big box store. I bought it and I'd be hard pressed to tell the difference. A different brand, but one has to wonder if the same company makes both. That said the particular big box store doesn't have a reputation for the best quality stuff and so I'd still be inclined to purchase from Amazon if I ever need a 3rd. I use my 2nd one for filling oil in the car and other things around the garage. It works great there as well.

Makes fueling MUCH easier!

Hope they continue to make these. I own 3 - one for gas, one for diesel, and a spare. I love the screen in it that filters for 'trash'. Mine does collect stuff even in what I thought was a pretty clean can. My diesel fuel cans have those new nozzles that require 5 hands to operate in addition to having to climb aboard the tractor, hold on, and lift 5 gallon container. I take the nozzle/top off of the diesel and this funnel is large enough it catches that pour straight from the container with little or no spillage. I can pour rather quickly - otherwise I'd be holding a 5 gallon container unsupported for the long time it takes with the new nozzles. I also use one for my riding mower. I could probably do without it as I can use two hands on the 5 gallon can, but it makes it much easier with virtually no spillage - as well as a filter. My wife & I are 60+ years old, and this allows either of us to easily manipulate a 5 gallon container & put gas in the mower. My only complaint: I wish the screen had a way to mount more substantially. It in essence lightly lays in a flat area between some tabs. But it is easily bumped loose by laying the funnel down briskly, or pouring gas too quickly at first. And I don't know where to get replacement screens. Even so - I still give it 5 stars.

This funnel is massive

For the money it's a no brainer. This funnel is the Andre the giant of funnels. I have used it a few times now for oil changes a it seems ir is made out of durable plastic. Time will only tell on that one. The screen was taped flat to the funnel so I had no issues with that. My only regret is I wish I would have broke down and bought this funnel a long time ago. Just make sure to have the funnel secure when using it. Basically that's a rule with any funnel

Funnel and spout dimensions

I didn't see any reviews with dimensions, so here they are. The funnel is rectangular in cross section, 8 inches by 9 inches. The back (high) end is 7 inches above the taper. Front is 4 inches. The spout is 3.5 inches long. The spout diameter (stepped) is 2.5 inches at the beginning of the spout, next step is 2.25 inch, next 1.75 inch, and 1.0625 inches at the bottom of the spout. There are .125 inch tabs at 90 degree intervals around the spout as you can see in the picture. These allow you to fine-tune the diameter as needed. I use this funnel for the fuel tank openings on my tractors. You can push the spout into the openings and get a very tight fit to let you use gas cans without having to hold the funnel. It turns a three hand operation into a two hand operation.

Great for funneling a lot of fuel quickly

This is a BIG funnel. I use this to refuel my tractor and it is a great time saver. It drains fuel faster than I can pour it out of a wide-mouth 5-gallon fuel can. It is tall, stable and the top opening is quite large so most drops that slosh up don't make it over the rim. The only [minor] down side is that the funnel gets wide very quickly so it doesn't work for anything but the most wide open fuel openings. It works great with my tractor which fuels from the top of the engine compartment and it works great with refueling a large fuel capacity zero-turn mower. It does not work at all for refueling my Kubota RTV, though. The angle on the fuel opening on the RTV makes this funnel useless in the application. It also comes with a removable wire screen to catch any big particles of junk that may inadvertently get into what you are pouring. In summary: This quick draining opening will shorten refueling time and will forgive you for splashing fuel as you do it but it won't be a one-funnel-for-all-uses solution; you will still need some more flexible funnels for the more awkward angles that some equipment has.

Very large, great price and built to last through a lot

Wow, great product for a great price. It is made of very sturdy, hard plastic so it's not going to break anytime soon. Bought this item expecting it to be big, but honestly never expected it to be quite this large. It may not work for my original intended use but it's still a great, very sturdy product that I'm sure we can find a use for. I bought two for a project and my husband already claimed one for the garage.

Hopkins FloTool 10705 Giant Funnel

It's not easy to watch yourself writing publicly that you love a plastic funnel, but it's true for me here. I've wasted time carefully and slowly trying to hold a 5-gallon gas can just right in relation to the gas-tank opening (back & arms growing weary) and I've wasted more time spilling gas and then obsessively cleaning the spill. Gas on my hands, on my gloves, and I've thrown away the towels used to clean the area. Most often the gas-can is the problem (gas leaks out between the can and whatever spout-type attachment comes with the can), but I've been the problem a few times. The bowl is enormous, with a 2-inch straight non-flexing spout. For me, it's best for top-loading tanks; for angled-loading tanks (e.g., a car), you'd have to pour more slowly but it should work well as long as you don't have a flap in the fuel neck (between tank and gas cap) that is deeper into the neck than the length of this funnel's spout. I stuck this huge funnel in the top-side opening of my Generac XG portable generator (awesome), and poured wildly in the bowl of this funnel. I drained my entire 5-gallon can into the tank in perhaps 75 seconds. To do this, I had no spout on the gas can and started tilting the can 45 degrees...enough to get the gas rushing into the funnel but not so fast that the gas ever overflowed the funnel's bowl. I continued increasing the tilt until all the gas was out of the can and into the tank -- I was very aggressive in the pour, near reckless. No spill, I love this funnel.
