I guess I don't get it.
ReplyI don't get it either,especially for $80.00.
ReplyThis is a bit ridiculous. I believe there are better watering cans for a lot LESS money.
ReplyIf they say I must have this then they can give me one for free .
ReplyI love my plastic watering bucket I have had for years. Easier to handle and does the same job just as good.
ReplyI GET IT, THEY ARE TRYING TO ROB US. WITHOUT A GUN AT THAT.
ReplyI agree with the others. This is ridiculous. What are you supposed to do with the hose, while you are filling it? Maybe you can utilize it to make a home brewer out of it. They should send it back to the Swedes.
ReplyThat's the most ridiculous thing I've seen in a long time. It looks totally useless to me and they think we'd be that dumb to pay that much? It just goes to show those countries think the American people are all dumb and rich. I guess they can't sell it in their own country so they're gonna try and pawn it off on us. Get real.
Replywhere are we supposed to stick that hose.
Reply80 bucks?, really?, I don't think so.

Wow, why would anyone buy this? It is small enough for the lady to hold it with one hand. It looks like it may not even hold enough water to fill a regular-sized thermos. It looks like it would only be usable for small, indoor plants. You'd be going back to the water source for a refill for each plant.
Replysurely you jest!
ReplyMust not be much of a recession, with watering "cans" selling for ~$80.00. This is a joke, right?
ReplyI would rather take my wife out for dinner than waste it on that.
ReplyThis is one of the most pointless things I've ever seen. Looks like future landfill to me. I doubt they'll get too many suckers to buy these, so hopefully they didn't make too many.
ReplyIt could double as a enema device.
Replyit could work to put out a small fire.
it would be useful as a thing to wash your dog with (a small dog)
A dwarf would be able to use it as a drinking fountain.
Stupid...with the small hole in top, probably holds about a quart...I like my 2 gallon plastic can from Walmart at $3.95...
ReplyI GOT IT!!! Its Functional Art. In 500 years your $80.00 investment will be worth 10 million. But so will a loaf of bread.
ReplyThis is what we should expect from a French designer who founds a Born in Sweden company. They need to focus on honesty.
ReplyGoodness Jack. Is it that silly? Get you wife to buy you one. Or take you out to dinner.
