AWESOME PRODUCT!

***Product arrived early*** AWESOME!, only problem is I ordered 3 and only 2 arrived, spigots are INSIDE the barrel, you must remove the screen and get them out to be installed. OUTSTANDING product for the price, hoping I get my third barrel sooner rather than later.

Good water barrel-

55 gal water barrel- leaks at side plug and at spigot. Best advice I can give is use silicone stretch clear caulk heavily on base of both and let it dry till color clears. Otherwise a good barrel

No spout or plug, but still a good deal

The only thing that kept this from 5 stars is that the image is not what you get-the image indicates the barrel has a spigot and a plug-it does not. You will need to find an appropriate sized spigot (the opening is standard sized, so you need to find a spigot that will fit a standard 5/8 in hose. The second opening (about mid way up the barrel) will need a spigot or plug, also 5/8in. The barrel has a bung plug on top and an opening with a screen for your downspout to drain. You will need a specialized tool to remove the bung, so I would only open it if it was absolutely necessary. The barrel appears to be new and clean (no weird smells or stuff sticking to the inside walls). All you need is two 5/8in spigots or a spigot and plug to get started harvesting your own water. I would recommend some plumber's tape for the spigots to make it secure and prevent leaks. You can paint the barrel or cover it in wood or whatever you want to do with it when it arrives. I have several rain barrels, some bought, some acquired, and this is the cleanest one I have received so far.

Rain barrel

I like the barrel but all of the pictures on the Sam's website show it having a faucet and a plug for the other outlet. It came with just the barrel and that's all. Had to go and buy the other items.

Spout in package inside barrel

You have to take off the screen to find the package inside that contacts the plugs. It easily could have been taped to the top and would save a lot of Hassel for customers. But I just happened to take off the screen and noticed a package inside and it contained the plug and spigot! Other than that, good barrel for the price!

55 Gallon Blue Rain Barrell

This barrell has an odd smell but it will serve purpose outside to catch rain water. The details/Specifications forget to indicate spigot, tape and plug are inside barrell. Must remove top screen to access. Must wash occassionally too. Details need to be updated online. Very Nice. Bought on on sale July/Aug 2023. Reps are not knowledgeable of specs. Not for human drinking water or showering.

the netting on the top is supposed to cover the entrance where the water comes in to keep mosquitoes out but it doesnt even cover the hole its a joke.
