FCMP Outdoor 45 Gallon Heavy Duty Rain Water Catcher Barrel Container with Hose and Debris Screen for Outdoor Plants, Garden, and Landscapes (RC45-BLK) Black

This is a great water solution. Fills readily even with a lighter rain. The short hose that you mount to it is attached with a p-clamp, which feels janky but seems to work fine. I prefer that to a spigot for filling watering cans, because I didn't have to lift the barrel with a stand. I can just tip the hose into a watering can to fill them, rather than having to keep the barrel high enough to fill a watering can. The end of the hose has a male hose attachment, so you can use a regular garden hose to water with as well. Pressure seems great as long as the barrel is at least partly full. Next year I will be attaching this to a garden irrigation system, so all I have to do it turn the valve, to water the garden.

Have used this rain barrel for nearly one year and very satisfied with the quality and function.I have another brand as well and the key with these types of barrels is raising them a foot or two on blocks/bricks in order to properly drain as needed. I also placed mosquito nets over top.Excellent product, easy to use.A must for drout ridden southern CA!

I like that it sits flush to my garage. I had to have help cutting down the gutter spout because I did not have the tool(s). I can attach a hose to the hose that comes with the product. It's plastic so not heavy until it gets full of water. I had trouble with the hose clamp but I got help for that too. I put it near my shade garden and compost pile in the back of my garage. It reduces my water bill by using rain water.

Good build, easy to get water from and a good price , I have 4 and there filled up with rain water and I’m saving on the water bill

Great replacement for one that burst from freezing. Looks good, fits close to the house.

After a heavy rain, I was excited to see how much rain was in the bucket, there was none because there was a hole in the bottom of the barrel. I had already threw the box away so I cant return, just going to try to seal with some plexi seal or something.

Does the job but def overpriced. The hose clip is cheap and wont last a season before the hose is no longer connected to the barrel and instead laying on the ground.

we love this, works really well and looks amazing we are trying to hook up our yard little by little
