Algreen Castilla 50 Gallon Rain Water Collection Barrel, Brownstone

Working great so far, works as described. I did accidentally hit the bottom spout and knock it loose, my husband was able to repair it. Looks great with my rain chain, we get a lot of compliments. I could not put flowers in the top, when it's full it would drown them, it fills up with the rain barrel. Not a concern for me.

Nice quality materials, arrived on time. The little well for flowers could be much deeper, if planting real flowers there is no room for roots.

I like how this rain barrel looks and it's large size. It holds a large amount of rain water. It has a screen over half the top where rain water enters, to prevent insects and debri from entering the water. We drilled tiny holes in the planter part of the top to allow rain water to drain since we won't be using it as a planter. Very happy with it.

As advertised

It's exactly what I was looking for.

I like the colors for outside. Though seems I get different variations of colors. Like the barrels. The bottom spigot does not stay tight but on this newer one, seems a bit better. The new one did not come with a short hose as my others had. Another shortfall is when trying to connect another barrel. The top locations for the hose are a bit weak for the weight of water and the hose.

All of the parts required to make the rain barrel functional were missing from the inside. I contacted the seller to no avail. I had to go out an purchase my own.

The rain barrel has a very thin bottom and is leaking

This rainwater collection barrel looks nice, but that's about it. After the barrel was full, tried to use the water from it - very low water pressure. I know, it is relying on gravity for water pressure, but I have 2 other barrels with similar design and the water flowed out of those almost like a faucet - but not this one. I would not buy this again.

Missing pieces upon delivery. WM credited me $10 to go buy them myself. Not worth it.
