June 16, 2017
This works wonderfully as a rain catchment system for the many rain storms we have had this spring. I particularly like that the top zips open completely to clean the barrel as I have not found another rain barrel that does. It is sturdy and the price is right.

I used this to collect the condensation from my air conditioner to water my garden. Works very well, with no leaks. Next year I am going to add another so I don't loose any water when it gets full.

I have told so many people about this product - since we are so dry in our area, I have been able to use collected rainwater for my bird baths and potted flowers. Wish I had gotten one of these years ago!
Great deal. Nay Sayers are just trying to sell more expensive barrels.
May 12, 2016
Anyone saying this is aweful is just not using a touch of creativity. Buy a $5 tube of silicone and use it between every spicket fitting. Common sense. This is a STEAL at $35. Works awesome. I have two chained together with one lower than the other to help drain. This is a steal. Bottom line.
Portable Rain Barrel - An Excellent Product
May 7, 2016
I just set my rain barrel up and placed it where water runs off my roof. I don't have rain gutters, but this should fill up soon with the moisture we are getting. The kit arrived in a timely manner. The assembly was really simple. I am highly satisfied with not only the product, but the transaction. I will be ordering this again as a gift and recommending it to friends who might be interested in keeping a batch of rain water handy.
I Ordered Two Rain Barrels to Hold Rain Water
May 21, 2013
I ordered two of these for my office and warehouse where I have put in flower beds and want to use rainwater instead of clorinated water from the hose. I originally saw them in a gardening catalog but found them here on Amazon for about half the price. I was especially attracted by them because I can unzip the top and dip in with my watering can. I also will be emptying them in the winter and storing them away. I have other styles of permanent rain barrels at my house so I've learned that it is very important that they be accessible to clean. After about two weeks the water becomes smelly and algae will grow in the barrel. These will be very easy to clean although I haven't done it yet.You will need the mosquito larvae killing tablets since the screen will not keep the mosquitoes out. I use the donut shaped ones and break them into smaller pieces. You can tell from the instructions how much to use.It took me about ten minutes to assemble each barrel. The fact that the rods are hard plastic rather than metal has no bearing whatsoever on the strength. As for moving them, who would consider moving anything full of fifty gallons of water; in other words, 400 pounds of weight? Of course, you cannot move them once they are full so plan placement ahead of time.I posted the before and after photos. You cannot fill them to the top because there is a runoff opening a couple of inches from the top so I find they don't exactly look as full as the ad shows. I am going to have to be very careful using the weed eater around them, or better yet, hand cutting the grass, but I am very pleased with the purchase. They do what I bought them to do, that is, hold water.

Good starter...
December 14, 2016
Does not leak as others claim, but I can see the potential to do so. It's vinyl folks, a good starter kit. Four instead of 5 because of lack of mobility when full (I put mine on wheels).
Works as intended.
August 19, 2016
This works for intended purposes. Once the container has filled with water, it doesn't actually sit on the legs, they come off the ground, they're for keeping its shape??? After the container sat in the sun the faucet head broke off when I tried opening it.. Otherwise it's a good container. It works, not pretty and you should place it on a lifted base to use the fuacets as intended. I have two connected and use the water on my potted plants. I'm satisfied for the cost.
It's okay
May 11, 2016
At first I was disappointed with the legs. I felt that it should have come with more than the 4 legs to support 50 gallons water. The picture shows product with aluminum legs. I thought the plastic would be inferior. I had purchased another brand, 35 gallons collapsable that PVC was thicker and better quality. It have 5 legs and more sturdy. I didn't think that the 35 gal barrel would be enough so I ordered this one and used it as my overflow. It has been more than 2 weeks with the barrel filled to capacity and to my surprise it is holding up. I was a bit overwhelmed with the diameter. It's bulky and taking up space on my patio. I do not have it on a raised platform, so I cannot use the spigot to fill my water pail. Unzipping the top is a cool feature and is quicker. I placed duct tape over the top inlet to keep mosquitos out. Wished that it had come with a better screen that would allow water to flow in freely and small enough to keep mosquitos out. So far it is doing what it is suppose to do. Collect rain water and saving me money. I only hope that it can stand up to coming summer heat and that I am able to get more seasons out of it to make it worth it's value in collapsibility and storage.
2 years is a good bargain at the price
April 27, 2016
After 2 years, this rain barrel finally is done. The hole at the bottom spout has warped to the point where it always leaks when you put in water. It started leaking after 1 year, but it was still usable as the leak was small. I can't complain as this is still the "economy" version of a rain barrel. 2 years is a good bargain at the price.
No hoses.
June 5, 2015
Warning: Only 36-40 dollars in the Heartland America catalog. Works great collecting, as long as you keep weight in it. We are on the top of a ridge and the winds will blow it right away if we don't. The only real problem is neither spout works a hose. There is not enough pressure from the bottom spout, even running downhill, but we can fill buckets from the overflow, so there's that. Great product for the price.
No Parts To Build Frame...
May 17, 2013
I received this 5/17/13. Took it out and attached the drain. Went to move on to the frame and.... no metal rods to construct it... Product gets a 1/5 till I get the frames in order to test it.:-)5/5/14. Way overdue on this one... 4/5 stars. The company was very helpful and sent out another set right away. It lasted the summer quite well and we got a TON of use from it. Unfortunately I did not take it down for the winter which destroyed the seal on the bottom and made it useless. PACK IT UP FOR THE WINTER. :-)

I like that.
June 10, 2017
Not gotten yet, but being a bag, I can squeeze it into a protected odd shape confinement.Not the Round shape, I like that.
Okay product but need some kind of support
January 4, 2015
The pro of these is that they can hold a lot of water and it saves you money the con is that since they are collapsible they are not very sturdy ones they are totally full they tend to fall over and dump all the water out so the only way you can use them is if you have some kind of support to hold them up right. I already had one that fell over so many times it broke where the zipper was now I have to either get a rain barrel bed is solid or get a trashcan and put the Rainbarrel inside of it these are only good if you have something to lean them or prop them up against
Kind of ok.
August 9, 2014
I mounted this rain barrel and am happy that it is shorter than my other collapsibles, because the overflow from one goes down to this one. Had to make my own connection; not foreseen. But it has only 4 plastic legs for a lot wider barrel and does not look stable, kind of leans (my other taller ones have six: more support). Also the legs are one inch shorter than the actual barrel ! The whole thing kind of sits lopsided. So far it has not burst nor does it seem to be leaking, but it's been up for only about three weeks. Of course the price is good. Maybe it will be possible to give an update at the end of the season.
it holds water!
May 31, 2014
it has to be protected from the wind, or else it might tip and move if there is not enough water in it.it also has to be on perfectly flat land or it will tip over,i had bought a bigger one that was wider that did not have these problems,the place where you attach a hose is cheap plastic and was not able to attach a hose without it leaking so i had to put in 3 hose washers, the threads would not allow me to tighten the hose tight enough but the extra washers allowed it to stop leaking.so once i figured out extra washers when attaching the hose, level ground, and protect from wind it worked as expected!
Love the versatility, but quality is lacking.
March 4, 2014
The reviews for this product are overwhelmingly pointing to weak seams, leaky spigots, and instability. After buying two and sending one back for replacement after a first day of use, I could certainly confirm all.Here is what not to do when assembling and installing one of these.1. Do not to insert the plastic legs all the way in. You will need them to stick out beyond the base (1/2-1") to provide needed support all around. (I failed to do that, and my barrel fell to the side after taking in some water)2. Do not place the barrel on an uneven or soft surface. (I have placed mine on an overall straight but slightly uneven and soft ground, and it contributed to the collapse, described in bullet 1. No room for error with this barrel, foundation has to be straight and solid.3. Do not misalign spigots during installation. The seals are subpar and will leak even with minimal movement.4. Do not pull at the seams to test the strength, you may rip them open.Overall, these barrels are certainly not your typical "Set it and forget it!". As they fill in with water, they change shape and could shift, potentially leading to a collapse, and burst at the seams - an awfully weak point in the construction. Therefore, some level of baby seating is required, and if you don' have the time to do that, find something else.Versatility is great though! Tuck it away in dry season and reassamble next year.
Nice Size Rain Barrel
December 8, 2012
Really nice size and being collapsible makes it easy to take down during the dry season. Note the box says it comes with 4 sturdy metal legs...the legs are actually plastic.

PVC piping does not stand up to extreme temps and curves rendering it unusable.
Will not recommend needs to have a more leak proof method of making, and a method of securing it.
June 27, 2016
Came in great condition according to expected delivery. Put together without problems and noted no problems while filling with water. Next morning when going to use the water to water my container plants found the water container was only 1/4 full - had leaked out over night through bottom and sides of the container. I would not recommend this for water collection. Also there is no way to tie down to prevent blowing away. The rain storms that we have here often have winds that gust up to 60 to 80 miles per hour. I will find something else to use for water collection that I can secure better.

September 26, 2017
Ordered Aug 31, installed within a week. Fell over the first time it filled up. I leveled the ground using 3 concrete blocks with plywood across. It worked for three week then fell over again after filling. This time the entire zipper top ripped off at the seams. I would not have a problem with the flipping, but the sipper seam was weak breaking within 4 weeks.

This is a piece of crap. Unless it's aways full
October 5, 2015
This is a piece of crap. Unless it's aways full, it sags and won't stand upright. This makes it extremely difficult to put water into the 'barre'. I wouldn't waste your money.

Does not stand up on its own unless full of water. Does not push water out unless sitting on a shelf or at a very high level than the item you want to water.

November 6, 2014
It can not stand by itself may be due to the bad design. I tried to fix it but very difficult to made it stand balance. When the rain came it could collect a whole bag of water. However, I surprised that the barrel was empty and all the water leaked within 1 day! It's not as good as I think. In fact, it is not work, I finally didn't enjoy any rain water. Don't waste money.
