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

I bought my first ever rain barrel. It came within a week, look just as advertise, nice looking Big barrel all attachments were placed inside. The concept of this rain catcher is great, but could use some revision. My first hard rain barrel filled in super fast and started pouring out the vents on top and spraying out too where gutter hose attaches, even tho I had my drain hose open to drain and attached . The problem is the nozzle is a 1/4 inch as the drain hose will be and can no way drain fast enough for the amount of water coming in to barrel. It takes about half of barrel to have enough weight to even drain at all. So even tho nozzle is at bottom it will drain to about half of barrel only.

I like the flat back design, it nestles better against the house. Spigot at the BOTTOM is a plus also (surprises me how many of these have the spigot a foot from ground--a waste of water in the barrel). And can't beat the price! Would get a 5 star if they would put a screen or a top that can be elevated, removed, lifted--etc. My favorite rain barrel has that feature, just can't find it anymore.

Works as expected, though we haven't had much rain. We did hijack the design. As this was not connected to our downspout but is used to catch fast running water off the roof, we took off the lid and put screening around the top. Hopefully this will catch roof runoff and keep leaves and debris out of the water in the barrell.

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.

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!

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

I bought 2 of these barrels because they were advertised with a brass spigot for a garden hose hook-up. However, one arrived with a brass spigot, but the other arrived with a cheap plastic spigot that likely won't last through the winter. Very disappointed and not sure who and how to get in touch to get it corrected.

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 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.
