Great Rain Barrel for Multiple Uses!
Color: Brown
Got mine right before we had a heavy rainfall Easy to hook up. The main hose connects with a metal screw clamp. The rear flat overflow hose connects with just a plastic pull tie. You could hook any 1.5" hose up to it using a plastic tie or a clamp. It also includes another 1 foot flat hose to connect to a second rain barrel, if you wanted to connect two barrels together. The water from the front hose flows best when the barrel is 50% or more full of water, but if you use it simply to irrigate water from the barrel to some other area through a hose, water will freely flow out of the hose if the hose is lying flat on the ground. If you lift the barrel by placing it on a box or stand or even just some bricks, it'll give you even more pressure. The water pressure is based on the volume of water in the barrel and gravity. They sell a stand for this model, but you can use anything like wood, bricks, a crate or even a wide footstool to raise it higher if you want to. It looks a lot bigger in person than it does in the pictures. It's strong plastic and will definitely last. The top screen is attached to a circular ring of plastic and just sits on top of a plastic crossbar opening at the top of the barrell. I drilled two holes on top and put screws through it, just to hold it more firmly in place, but I don't think it'll come off that easily on it's own. A really strong wind gust might lift it off, but I doubt it'll be an issue. I'm just paranoid so I put a couple screws in it. I recommend this barrel over the others for one big reason - it has the largest top opening of all the ones I've seen. The other barrels have a narrow or small opening at the top, which are meant for closer or direct gutter connections. This one is great for me because I don't have a gutter to connect to it and I can catch free-dripping water coming down from about 15 feet off a corner roof. I have this barrel positioned under a corner roof that doesn't have a gutter connection because of the angle of the corner there. This barrel picks up most of the water dripping down from about 15 feet up and keeps the water off the ground and away from my home's foundation. I also attached a standard hose to the included connector switch and ran it 15' out to a veggie garden where I attached a 50' soaker hose which I have wound around the bottom of the plants. So now, not only do I have a barrel to collect the rainwater coming off my roof to protect my home's foundation, I am also keeping the soil in my veggie garden damp without using my water company water. Easily one of the best products out there for simple-irrigation of rainwater and saving a couple bucks on your water bill. ... show more

Love them!
Color: Brown
Incredibly easy to install and daisy chain together. No issues with leaking as others mentioned. They fit snug up against the house easily and seem very stable. Will be buying 2 more for this side and perhaps 2 for a second downspout.

Serves it's purpose for the price
Color: Brown
Ok. I'll start by saying, it's plastic and one solid mold. W that, you can expect a leak, but hopefully not. 1) the over flow plastic piece is worthless. I read other reviews and was hesitant. Piece comes folded so it has kinks, and it collapses too easily. It is a thicker plastic material, so I was hoping the kinks would be alleviated w water running through. I tested it w a garden hose full pressure. It stayed kinked and collapsed on itself. I tried working w it w the garden hose on trying to work out the kinks. I have a open/close adapter on the hose: thinking now if the hose would fit into the tube maybe you could get it to form better BEFORE atttaching. But at that point, you might as well either attach a garden hose to it, if it fits, or replace w a PVC pipe as some have done. Honestly the over flow 'hose' is too short anyway....so yea, it will need to be replaced w something else. 2) I was a bit surprised how quickly it filled. It was sprinkling for 1-2hrs before I even thought of checking on it. The way I have things set up is temporary and not the most secure. The thing was full. So back to the over flow issue. Thinking of just attaching a few of the expandable down spouts to eachother to get the rain to flow back out to the yard. As seen in the pics, this was a get it done now while it's still sprinkling and overflow is coming out of everything. Needless to say, current situation is hideous! 3) I did two levels of paver bricks for good flow, but don't like the look because of where it's at. 4) I do love the thing despite it's leak issue, and seriously considering a train of them on the side of the house from the other downspout. This one is where its at because of the garden right there around the pond. The plan is too attach a soaker hose to the barrel hose, but I can see that one barrel may not last that long, and our summers get hot and dry towards August. I am seriously considering the train of barrels, but they will be sitting until needed in later summer. So I'd need to figure out how to keep it from evaporating. So: 1) it's super light and if not filled w water or a small cluster of rocks, it's going to blow over in a storm 2) it will probably have a leak somewhere 3) over flow hose is useless. 4) rain comes mostly in spring and will need the water a few months down the road, so will it even be available at that time, or will it be evaporated. 5) I do want more just to stock pile some water till it's needed. OH....and my main reason for this one, even though I knew I'd hate the over flow spout... the massive opening I did use the out pour hose to drain a little since it was leaking and it had good flow. I'd almost want to try w only one layer of bricks and see if the pressure is still good. The outgoing spout is at the very bottom, so it will need to be elevated unless you are going to have it at the top of a slope. I mean maybe not since it is at the bottom, but definitely for ease of use I'd slap it on some bricks or a stand. 1st Pic is the current situation w the overflow issue and it's still sprinkling. The brown expandable is what I was talking about of having extra to attach and extend out into grass or garden rather than the old downspout. I kept it close for a just in case moment, which happened. The brown according is not secured yet, other than zip ties around the post 🤦♀️ and apparently it has its own hole somewhere 2nd Pic is the leak: it's blurry sorry 3rd is the overflow attachment. You can see how it's collapsed. When I 1st checked and the overflow was coming out of the leak and the tip, this attachment was not fully opened starting from about 6 inches from where it attaches. So basically stayed flat. There was some water flowing through, but it was opened enough. If it would stay wide open, there would've been good enough flow and probably no leak. I may even figure out a way to place the expandable type behind barrel and cut attachment to where it stays open and just feed it into brown spout, then feed that under barrel and out. That way I wouldn't need to worry about attaching things after the fact, as I could see this thing filling in minutes w a good storm. Would I recommend? Yes, but do not expect perfection. It's great for the price..although not th prettiest, it does the job. ... show more

Rain Barrels
Color: Black
Sleek design and high quality. Saves a lot of water during the summer flowering season. Only drawback is the water run off design. Should not be run under the barrel as designed. Otherwise, a great buy!

Love these rain barrels! Nice clean water with no leaves or bugs
Color: Brown
We ordered two for our barnyard garden area. We installed the base prematurely, so had to get creative with the plumbing. We bought the pool/spa hose separately to make our installation work, there was nothing wrong with the provided tube and installation instructions. Now, a gutter rain diverter feeds the second barrel (we modified the second barrel with a hole in the top to accept the pool/spa hose because we couldn't make the sharp angles work with given hoses and expected inputs). That barrel overflows into the first barrel (closest to the gutter), then the first barrel overflows at the back and the overflow tube runs right into the drainpipe (where the gutter meets the black drain tube at ground level). These both fill with one day of rain; the feeder gutter is collects water across a 30' barn roof. These are sturdy and I like the screens on top to see the water level, but it keeps out any bugs and mosquitoes. The water hose works well, notice in the pics we are about a foot off the ground; you need to lower the hose BELOW the barrel in order for water to flow out of the hose. Our family is very happy with the convenience of having the rainwater available in this space, it was a great purchase for us! ... show more

Great Function & Design -- Huge Improvement Over Old Similar Rain Barrel
Color: Brown
First, we can compare this new barrel to our old one which looked similar but was vastly different in ways that matter when you need a rain barrel. Our old one had a small narrow rectangular screen on top. Whenever a squirrel or raccoon happened to jump on top of the barrel (which was a lot) the screen would move out of place because of how the barrel was designed. Critters also tore up the screen with their claws and since the screen was so small it basically made the entire screen useless. Finally the drain spigot at the very bottom, although made of brass, never seemed to work right. This is why we needed a new barrel and we are so happy with the FCMP barrel -- it is SO much better in design & function. The screen is nearly the entire size of the top allowing more water to collect. It also sets firmly into the frame on top -- it does not move unless you tug and turn it. And instead of the spigot being at the bottom where it was hard for us to deal with (our barrel is on the ground, not elevated) the spigot for the FCMP is attached to the extended hose; super easy to turn on or off. The barrel got its' first big test recently with a massive downpour and it handled it like a champ. So relieved to have found this. Price was higher than we paid for our last barrel but sometimes the extra cost proves its' value in the long run. ... show more
