Purchased this barrel to replace our old one which sprung a leak. Holds a good amount of rainwater for our plants

First of all, the barrel looks sturdy and it's definitely more attractive than a regular barrel. Note that this barrel does not have a threaded spout for a side faucet, only the bottom has one. After looking at all the others with the side faucet, I didn't notice that the larger barrel didn't have one. That being said, it you're going to put a diverter kit on it, those come with a threaded insert for a faucet but it will detract from the look of the barrel. I'll manage but I wish this barrel was the same as the 50-gallon by the same manufacturer.

Good quality barrel. I have one purchased previously that has two spigots, one up higher. That made a better barrel, in my opinion, as you had two options for getting water.

Would have been great except for the problem of not holding water.. Leak was from faulty weld for spicket.. With 30+ mile trip to store, not happy, Very Happy with refund.. Great people..

The rain barrel was a good purchase. I plant a lot of flowers and now I don't have to pay for water to keep them looking fresh, but of course it stopped raining as soon as I got it.

Works great, room for plant on top. We Elevate ours for ease of use since the faucet is fairly low. This is our third purchase. We’ve had two for about 15 yrs. Still works great.

I just love this water barrell, but SOOO disappointed with drain holes that run out the back of it and onto the house foundation. The plantar on top of the barrell has 2 drain holes on the back side of the barrell (which I never saw in the description) so when it rains and fills up with water, water POURS out those 2 holes along the house /foundation!! Bummer, I tried to plug them with something but didn't work, I have just had to move it more out in the open, away from the house and now use it as an overflow.

We love the rain barrel but Sam's Club reordered the barrel, debt it to me in another color AND charged my debit card without my permission. After talking with customer service it was all resolved but i was lucky it didn't overdrawn my account. I don't think i will do anymore online ordering with Sam's Club. But we do live the rain barrel!!

I purchase the clay color rain barrel, came in less than a week. Everything in tack and came with two Spickets with plumbers tape. Top of barrels has a nice size area for planting and there is plastic screen over the downspout inlet. It sits flat against the wall, but I had a concrete donut to put under rain barrel for the water to have some gravity flow, so had to order a downspout extension thing. All in all, I think it is pretty attractive and more importantly I think it will do the job with out any problems.

I had the same problem as another customer did with one of the drain holes in the top leaking to the inside. I noticed this after I already had it set up with a pond pump to water mu plants so I wasn't going to go to the hassle of returning it. I just put a screw in the tubing so it doesn't leak. The holes in the cover where the water drains in were way to small to let the water run in. Half of it would run off on the ground. I just took a piece of screen and made my own cover. Works much better. I got mine ar Sam's for $49 so it was a good real regardless of the two problems I had. I have seen this same barrel online for twice that.
