looks nice but ... thats about it
So I have 2 100 gallon and I have 1 80 gallon Allgreen barrels. The 80 gallon one started to leak from day one. The 100 gallon one the cheap plastic spigot on the bottom part of the barrel broke off and Allgreen customer service is non existent. You cannot get in touch with them and they won’t answer your emails ( they have 1 year manufacture warranty) . Also if you are thinking about buying one of these for 200$ you have to replace the spigot in the front of the barrel because the one that they come with is absolut garbage ... the water is barely dripping out of it . I am very dissapointed with the purchase , 600$ invested in rain barrels and absolut no profesionalism from the manufacturer .

    Huge, round some issues
    Since this is round it does not fit up against a wall. Also the spigot is in the middle of the barrel and screwed so far into the barrel the handle would not turn on and off. I emailed the company on their website, but they failed to respond. I was able to rig something with additional parts. There is a place for a hose at the back of the barrel but that forces this huge round object to be even farther away from the wall than it already must be. Be sure you have at least 4' of space to accommodate this.

      Bought a second one after my first was destroyed in a hailstorm (golf ball sized hail!). A great design and well made.

      Rain barrel itself is very good. Instructions are really poor - espedially for installing the faucet. There should be a special note letting users know how much they should screw the faucet into the barrels threaded opening.

      not very good design re overflow placing. Lots of water wasted below faucet. I have two designs of Algreen rain barrels and they have very tender faucets’ glue. VERY EASY TO BREAK!!! I had to fix them all myself. Overall for 100 gal rain barrel and modern look it was ok purchase for the price.

      Odd that the electrical cord on the Algreen pump doesn't actually fit through the opening provided on the Algreen Barcelona Barrel opening.

      Hi David, the overflow on the Barcelona Rain Barrel was designed to accomodate the electrical cord on the 500 GPH Rain Barrel Pump Kit. If you would like to use a larger pump, we suggest running the cord out through the top of the rain barrel where your garden hose would come out. Please let us know if you have any quesions. 1-800-984-9933 or customerservice@algreenproducts.com. Thank you, Team Algreen. AlgreenProducts

      I purchased a half dozen of these for our house. One showed up with a hole in it. I contacted the company who promised to replace the unit. They kept putting it off until I could no longer return the defective item and just stopped emailing me back anything but apologies and empty promises after three months. I would never use this company again I feel as if they stole from me.

        Barrel works like its suppose to. The design could be better if the lower output on the back was offset from the middle a little to accommodate a hose against a wall.
