2.0 out of 5 stars functional but disappointing. March 28, 2009

By dan p

The rain barrel does what it is intended to do, and does not seem to be leaking. However, I expected brown, got blue ( I know it said colors may vary but really, show the barrel as blue in the first place), and it is also quite beat up, lots of scars and signs of wear. I don't usually give anyone ( or any company) a second chance to make a good impression, there are other places that sell similar products. I don't think I will be ordering from them again.

5.0 out of 5 stars rain barrel November 11, 2008

By Jeffery A. Smith

Barrels arrived on time and in good condition.
Be aware the the Northern Tools website says "colors may vary"
I thought I was getting brown barrels. They were blue. Northern tools did take a few bucks off for me having to spray paint them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works great - just a couple thoughts January 1, 2009

By Jason M. Rankin

Works great. You will however need to also get some mosquito dunks to prevent larvae from breeding and a rain barrel pump to water in all parts of yard or run a spinkler.
