It was wonderful how quickly we received the item. Set up was easy. The overall design is nice but the craftsmanship is of very poor quality. The first rain exposed a hole in the mold 1” from the spout. The area surrounding the spout is poorly constructed, thin, and appears to be melted plastic that was smeared around the site. The same holds true for the 2 large knobs at the top of the system (backside). It looks like the work of a preschooler who recently discovered paste. It is not something you would or should expect of a rain catchment system at this price. To top it all off, the spout itself was plastic (not brass or metal) and could easily snap off.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Good
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Plastic is very thin around spout causing a small hole to erupt
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? It should state the spout is plastic
