Good Ideas Impressions Palm 65 Gallon Rain Saver - Khaki

50 gallons does not go as far as you think, fills very quickly when the roof surface area is slightly large. The middle spigot is too high on the barrel so you don't get to use much of the water and the lower spigot is too low for filling watering cans. I bought two and will return one. And it's cubby and takes up a good amount of space.

Looks good but that's the extent. Valve connections to the water barrel do not go in easily nor securely. Getting the valve tight also means it is difficult to open because the texture of the barrel interferes with the smooth operation. There is a small opening in the top to fill with rain and unless the barrel is being drained into from the roof, it does not fill easily. I've had three deluging rains which have barely made it to the bottom valve. The planter is nice. It catches more rain than the barrel.

Attractive, well built, comes with two solid metal spigots. They look better than the online photos. I ordered 2 of the 65 gallon barrels. One was missing the spigots. Contacted Customer Service and spoke with Tim. It took just a few minutes for him to send me the parts. Even with the missing parts, I would order from this company again because of the overall quality.

Have not yet connected to downspout and used, but I like appearance, design and apparent quality. The spigots were easy to install, but have to make sure threads are lined up properly before screwing all the way in. The box it came in was a bit mangled and torn, but that did not seem to affect product.

Waited over two months for it to arrived. I missed majority of the summer. I wanted this to water my outdoor plants. It definitely must be connected to your cutter to collect rain water. I wouldnt suggest planting a flower on top unless you put it in a pot. Itll drown
