Next time you buy a full cylinder, do you think the store

In the US, they are not returned. They are disposible. (Which I always
felt was wrong).

The valves aren't useful after the first use. You're not supposed to
even take the torch off the tank until it's empty. They *will* leak.
Some refill them from 20# tanks but it's a *really* bad idea.

I've heard that Coleman brand are less likely
to leak than Ozark Trail. Just like Dietz oil
lamps less likely to leak than Ozark Trail.
