Ignik Refillable Gas Growler Deluxe 5-Pound Propane Tank with Carry Case and Adapter Hose

This thing has helped me banish the little green demons back into the darkness. I no longer find them hiding in storage closets, the back of my SUV, tucked away in my camp kitchen crate, or sneaking around behind my tent. Yes, I'm talking about those little green 1 lb tanks that are single-use and seem to collect in small armies during camping season. This thing costs less to fill than just ONE of those tanks, and is equal to 5 of those suckers. It might cost a chunk to buy this at the start, but you will save SO much money. Yeah, it takes up more space, so that should be accounted for, but this thing has gotten me through multiple weekend trips on one fill. Worth it.

I bought this to replace the green cans we end up buying every year when we go camping. At first I thought whoah the greenies are so cheap, why do I need this. Then I went to get it filled....it was $5.25!!!! My biggest issue with the green cans is the WASTE. They aren't recyclable and how many times do we trash a 1/3 left because you know you're going to run out while grilling? We carry five cans on average so replacing five with 1 is really helpful when camping. The carrier is heavy duty and attractive!

The size is perfect for our needs. Small enough to not take up too much room but large enough to last. It's easy to transport with the included carry case. Very well made and I'm sure it will last us for a very long time. Way easier than the small 1 lb gas bottles and less waste. It's an investment!

UPDATED REVIEW July 17, 2024I contacted the manufacturers customer service. (customerservice @ignik.com) and they replied in less than 14 hours.They were INCREDIBLY understanding, professional & apologetic. They provided the following options:*****Immediate Refund: We can process a full refund for the tank (upon proof of purchase).Expert Assistance: These small propane tanks have a more sensitive safety shutoff valve than larger (20 lb+) tanks, which can be triggered and become stuck during filling. Once the safety device is triggered, the tank cannot be filled until pressure is relieved from the cylinder and the safety device is reset. Propane suppliers, such as Suburban Propane, AmeriGas, and Ferrellgas, should know how to fill these tanks correctly and relieve the excess pressure if the safety device is triggered.Valve Replacement: Given your experience, we would be more than happy to reimburse you for an OPD valve replacement should you decide to do that locally (just require a snapshot of the receipt)Tank Replacement: We would happily provide you with a warranty tank replacement (upon proof of purchase) and some first-fill instructions to share with your local filling attendant.*******I chose to visit my local Ferrellgas & they were able to purge the tank & fill with propane. After everything I’d been through I was slightly shocked it was this easy.I have updated my review to 5 stars because I absolutely love this tank 🩷*********Original review written July 16, 2024I was excited to ditch the disposable propane canisters and be more eco-friendly with the Ignik Refillable Gas Growler Deluxe. Imagine my disappointment when I tried to get it filled for the first time and was told the tank/valve was defective! My camping trip was impacted, and now I'm stuck dealing with a return.Ignik doesn't accept returns through Amazon, which is where I bought it. So, I'm forced to navigate their website, which could be more user-friendly, to try and get a refund or exchange. This whole ordeal is a colossal waste of time and money.Update to come: I'll be sure to add how easy (or difficult) it is to get ahold of Ignik's customer service and resolve this. Stay tuned to see if this Ignik dud turns into a fiery nightmare!

Nice cover to help keep dust and dirt off your tank.

I bought this tank and went to fill it up. Nothing happened. Tank would not accept the propane at the fill station. I ordered another one which worked fine, first try. I went to return the first one, went through the steps in the Amazon App, and after telling them it was defective they suggested I contact Ignik support, but I know how that can go, so I just wanted to return it, and clicked the “Return Options” button, which immediately disappeared once I clicked on it, and nothing happened. So I then called Ignik’s phone number listed in the Amazon support, and it just said “Sorry, no one is available to take your call. Please leave a message.” I have no time to waste right now. I hung up and went back to the amazon app, started a chat with its useless AI chat bot, which informed me THIS ITEM IS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR RETURN! WHAT?!? So I requested Amazon call me, and the agent told me the same thing, but that as a ONE TIME COURTESY they would refund me and I should dispose of the defective item. I took them up on this offer, but have wasted almost an hour that I REALLY needed to be doing other things. I’m REALLY hoping the other one I have keeps working, and that this company figures out their quality control issue, as it seems like a great product that I can’t wait to use with my Wok burner tailgating/camping.

We were using the tiny propane bottles for our stove and it was not practical to keep buying more of them. It's not good to just throw them away and it's more expensive. We went on a 4-5 day camping trip for our first time using this and we were very careful with the amount of propane we used because we were used to not having a lot. We have a Joolca portable shower so we took quick showers and we tried not to warm up water for tea everyday. When we got home, I went to get this refilled and the guy said don't even worry about it, it's not even $5. He filled it up for free. I was very surprised. Since then we are more liberal with how much propane we use and we have never run out for our trips. Super compact size and it holds a lot of propane. Definitely worth the purchase!
