Pros & Cons
Pros
The planter on top is a real plus and makes the barrel look more like a planter and less like a barrel. The gray color goes well with our patio pavers.
The unit is sturdy and large enough to please alright that it could ship without a box from the galapagos island shore. It has a small area for the gutter to go in that is covered with mesh. I'm happy with the purchase, but it isn't foolproof.
Top of the reservoir has a good aesthetic purpose and serves well for anything that is planted on top. The middle faucet is great to fill up my water pitchers for hand watering. I drain it out through a soaker hose which gradually waters my plants.
Cons
Top is screened, not sealed, it really limits what you can do with the barrel. Connecting it to another, overflow issues. I love this item however it leaks.
Vine "it's annoying. Pesky cognitive dissonance. It's a problem, it really is.
Highlights
Quality
Seems like a good quality product looks great where we placed it and fits the bill
Seems to be pretty good quality overall and im happy with it
There are 2 spouts and i had issues with both
The rain barrel looks like it came with the house
Packaging/appearance
This way i am reusing gray water in stead of using chlorinated city water and im saving money
We will be replacing the spout to fix the problem
Itll be hard to scrub this thing out when the time comes

Easier to empty with a spigot on the bottom and in the middle

Very nice except the spigot rests too close to the barrel so its impossible to turn it open or closed completely

My small gripesthe top fills with too much water before it reaches the overflow to run off
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I fixed this by drilling a few small holes in the top so the water in the planter on top just falls into the barrel

The screened opening is very small
