What do people use when they go camping to store water in.
If I'm on my own I just have a 2L bottle that I refill.
With the family we have a square collapsible carrier with spout.
15lt folding water carrier (450)
However the flow rate is terrible with the tap so we bought a concertina water bag, small one, that you push down on and that provides pressure for the water to come out of the tap on the top.

This design works much better but it's a cheap one so it leaks out of the screw top as well!
So what do you all use?

Ideal if it would stand up on it's own.
We don't really have anywhere to hang it from.
Love the Ortlieb quality though. I have one of their big waterproof bags which is brilliant.
If only the did a square stand up water holder!
