I ordered a green one, a brown one arrived, so I called distributor direct. They were super to work with, arranged a pick up of brown and sent a green. Installed easily, looks great, works fine. Please note, 50 gal rain barrels fill up fast!!! You will have to empty them regularly, especially if in a cold climate, so water does not freeze during winter.

The rain barrel was easy to install. I love the diverter feature. The excess water goes down the drain instead of back out the top of the barrel like the last rain barrel I had.

The barrel and diverter kit was simple to install. Works great and filled the barrel very quickly.

Great barrel, but . . . never could get a good flow from spigot. Removed from barrel & realized the opening was very very small, which allowed very little water out, thereby not allowing enough pressure for the garden hose. Will have to purchase new spigot from hardware store to correct this problem

We did not get the diverter that was advertised with the product. One that was sent wants use to cut into our downspout. Not something we wanted to do. We would have bought just the barrel and bought the diverter we wanted somewhere else had we known this. We love the barrel though.

I love the idea but there is not enough pressure to push water through a hose. I have to figure out a way to put it up on a stand so hopefully the gravity will let me use a hose to water my plants!

Advertised as 50 gallon. It is a 40 gallon. Spigot slowly discharges water.
