Awful product. Bad design.

Terrible product. Would give negative stars if I could. The metal spigot has to be screwed into the plastic threading which is a terrible design. I followed the directions exactly and the first time I tried screwing it in the plastic threading stripped and made the product worthless.

Capture rain water!

Environmentally friendly! Catch and conserve water! Great price and fast delivery! We have 4 of these (linked by 2's), a 200 gallon capacity. Know that in Northern climates they will need to be emptied and flipped upside down (very easy to do) so they don't collect water, freeze and crack over winter.

not working for me

i liked the look and ease of light weight installation. B ut this thing leaks bad and i tried to hook a hose up to the bottom faucet part and it does not attach without faucet pulling out. i dont know if its the cheap plastic or the faucet that came with.

Purchase of rain barrel through Walmart

Rain barrel came without spigot attached. Hole was cut but hole was left inside of rain barrel along with the plastic shavings! Necessary to unscrew screen and remove the hole cutout and shavings before setting up rain barrel! I have bought this type of barrel before and never had to do that cleanup.

Nice look but flaws

Easy to put together, looks nice and does the job I need to water my small garden bed. There are a few flaws I wasn’t pleased with: Mfg didn’t clean shavings and cut out pieces from inside the barrel. Hole in the top is so small it was hard to clean out debris. Faucet had a small drip after it was filled with water (used sealant to stop it). Overall it’s an average barrel that does the job

They All Leak!

After extensively reviewing this brand, I decided to purchase 2 of them. The reviews were mostly decent. I had them installed and got torrential rains the same night. Overflow is a huge problem so make sure the water will properly drain away from your foundation. Mine is suspended on river rocks and concrete stones. My biggest concern is that they both leak around the spigot and seal continuously which really burns my @$$$$$. They need to construct these better! Overall, they're aesthetically pleasing which is the main reason I bought them instead of a $5 food storage bin. Thesee are overpriced and not worth the price I paid. Some reviewers suggested marine epoxy. Maybe buy some of that before you buy these barrels.

Rain water Control

I would say overpriced Probably should have purchased a " stand" to put on for stability and draining access BUT did not know that you can purchase it . Lots of debris inside from drilling and cutting during assembly - RINSE OUT WITH HOSE B-4 you install

Everything I needed.

The brass spigot fits a standard hose fitting, btw. The 6x8 inch plastic screen can easily be trimmed to fit your downspout. There's a round 5" hole in the barrel top, underneath the screen, which fit my flexible round plastic downspout perfectly. I trimmed the screen to match the 5" ohole in the barrel top so that the screen had a custom appearance.

Great look, but leaches chemicals

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the idea of this rain barrel, and I think it's great for watering your garden and plants. Upon further research, all of these rain barrels have the P65 warnings for lead and they are NOT recommended for watering fruits/vegetables/herbs or to be used as drinking water. With the knowledge I have now, I wouldn't repurchase.

Do not buy! A cheap piece of plastic

Awful!! The rims are painted on, water runs off because there is no rim around the top, and it looks so cheap! Spicket will not screw in evenly, tops and sides have dents. Nothing like the picture!! Go to Ace or Tractor supply. I'm going to cut the top off and use as a planter. The most horrible experience purchasing on line and I buy everything on line!
