No lead and yes it will 5 gal jug. ceramic part will hold 3 gal of the 5 gal so you could put more in it if you are tall and strong enough

I assume it is lead free as i use it every day, for definite answer, check with manufacture. I do not think it would contain any lead as no body would buy it, if there is any health risk involved.

It will hold both 5 gal and 3.5 gal,which I prefer. It accommodates the new "plug" spill free bottles which is nice .Much better than the older bottle types. I'm very happy with this unit and this is the third different brand of water cooler that I have owned ,the cheapest and best!

I have only used 5 gallon water jugs and it works great. There are no leaks and the 5 gallon jug balances well on the ceramic dispenser - no tilting!

Yes. I have a five gallon metal water container on it now. It does need to be a metal one.

yes, it will hold either the 3 or the 5 gallon bottles - However, I would purchase a different model if I were to do it all over

Yes they will handle the 5 gallon jugs. This unit is amazing I would order it again. I like it better than our previous unit.

Yes. We have used it with a 5 gallon, a 2.5 gallon, and a 2 gallon jug. The smaller jugs are easier to carry in our car.

No. It's how strong is the battery? And, the shape ( the bottom) of the 5 gallon jug. We never had a need to test it, but it can come out fast.

Ours does great holing (2)5gal jugs & the one that sits a top the urn as we'll & has done so for several months now that we've owned it and love it!

it should hold 5 full gallons, but if you put 5 full gallons in it you won't have room to stir.... I would recommend using for no more than 4 gallons... maybe 4.5

That depends on the height of your jug. There is about an inch of space below our pump in our 5-gallon jug.

Great question. I wasn't aware that it may contain lead. I'll be getting rid of it if that's true.

It's very strong holds 3 5 gallons plastic no problem. Very sturdy, I suspect it can hold glass

Yes this will take a 5 gallon bottle. We purchased some reuseable 5 gallon botles. We get them filled at our local super market. Its cheaper than the bottled water, and now we have cold water without all of those plastic bottles. We love it.

We have been using ours for many months with 5 gallon plastic bottles. No problems whatever. It seems quite strong.

Yes, I use a 3 gallon bottle in mine but it also holds 5 gallon. I love mine!
