I had Topsiders years ago, and in fact I still have the two “cans” from them I use to store waste oil until I can take it to FLAPS and dump it. I hated having to deal with taking the pump part off, finding a place to store it, making sure the O ring didn’t get lost, etc., etc. When I found that plastic one at Lowe’s one day I jumped on it right away and have never looked back.
