Has anyone tried these carboys?

Hey guys, I think they are intended for beer but curious if anyone has tried these. Really would make cleaning very easy.

I'd be afraid of the surface area for bulk aging.

I like that design, like it says easy to clean and leaving top off to start ur ferment would be nice, then lock top down for final ferment and aging... Top design reminds me of my 275 gallon storage tanks..

Please keep me informed as it appears that you would have alot of air contact if it is not totally topped off ? Unlike a traditional carboy with only the surface area of the neck portion -

Thought the same but I am thinking it might make a great intermediary racking vessel to vacuum degass in.

Ive seen these or ones just like them being sold at many places now. They would make a good primary if they have enough volume or if your making smaller volume but like said above I wouldnt age in them due to surface area.
