Rain Barrel 50G Anti-Collapse Collapsible Rainwater Collection System,Portable Water Storage Tank,Garden Water Catcher

Bought this item last year and enjoyed a hassle free extra 100 gallons of rain water (we have 10 other rain barrels - water is precious in the SW and monsoon rains fill them quickly). Just got this one set up and smiled ear to ear. The only 'complaint' from my last purchase was the top is, well, floppy and unsturdy. This addition is brilliant.

Set up was easy, but it went downhill from there. It’s very wide and shallow, so finding a surface to put it on that elevates it enough to get any sort of flow is near impossible. The final blow was the spigot on the bottom of the barrel isn’t a spigot! Not one that a garden hose fits. So I have to go out and get a hose specifically for this tub? Save yourself the headache and get a barrel shaped barrel with a width of 22-25 inches so you can make a cheap and easy stand out of cinder blocks.

Yes the rain collector will hold your water yes it’s easy to put together for one person and no it hasn’t broken busted or leaked anywhere but the interlocking system of the top ring is a bit faulty if need to move to a better spot or even just clean it after to get any kind of bacteria or bugs that may have gotten in those connections of sliding a sleeve over the other plastics end and doing it till all the top plastics pieces make a circle is ineffective unless the barrel is full of water and zipped up those top pieces are annoying trying to pull them all around without pulling the previous piece back out just annoying should be a better material for the purpose of keeping the top of the barrel intact also connecting my self watering system on it was easy but someone tripped over the pex piece of tubing I had attached to the spigot that comes attached to the barrel to dispense the water with a turn of the nozzle so now I just have a rain collector that gathers rain from my gutter being filtered and strained from downspout and then fill my watering cans and spend some time with my babies hope this helps k bye

This fits perfectly and drains perfectly. The only issue I got is it has a disconnect and there’s no reference to finding out what the hoses is. It’s very flexible and it’s a good idea if you got issues to go ahead and pick us up

Ordered this August 15 2023. Started falling apart about a month ago. If you plan on leaving it outside the plastic will fall apart in a year. Other then that it worked good.

I read all the reviews, and I was a little nervous because I was afraid it was gonna be hard to put together. The hardest part was at the very top when you were putting the plastic strips in when you get to the last one it was really hard for me to fasten, but I finally got it. I’m super excited to use it. It’s gonna be perfect for the area that I needed in. Definitely glad I bought this.

This was easy to assemble. Sturdy and has a nice look! Already has collected several inches of rainwater for our garden.

Too light weight where wind will blow it away. Always collapses and will not stay upright. Not a good idea for a rain barrel.
