Pros & Cons
Pros
Stand by the 5-star rating. System works great so i stand by the system" "thinking about purchasing a second" "this is as expected and works well.
They are very attractive and blend into our landscaping without marring the view. It sits there collecting water, judging all other gardens sans rainbarrels. It works well and blends in nicely in my yard.
Cons
Mosquitoes can get in through the mesh covering on the top of the barrel. The brass spigot is very difficult to seat in the plastic fitting. It is really difficult to reach inside as there is not a removable lid.
The barrel looks nice and functions fine, but it came defective. Darkened ribs aren't worth it.
