Description

The Good Ideas 50 Gallon Plastic Rain Wizard Flat Back Rain Barrel is a stylish and easy way to catch and store rainwater that would normally just drain onto the ground and be lost. All you have to do is position this molded plastic barrel under your down spout, and water will pass through the screen and into the barrel for use later. Child and pet proof, this rain barrel will hold up to 50 gallons of pure rainwater, which can be used to water gardens and potted plants.

 

Made of plastic resin, this rain barrel is resistant to rust, mold, mildew, rotting, UV rays, fading, and deterioration. The spigot is made of high-quality brass, which lasts longer and is more reliable than plastic spigots found on other models. Especially useful during dry seasons, the Rain Wizard is a smart and inexpensive investment that will pay for itself several times over in water bill savings. Please note - the brass spigot is included with your rain barrel. It is shipped inside the barrel - remove before use.

 

An Eco-friendly Practice: Using a rain barrel is one way you can become more environmentally conscious. Saving rain water reduces the amount of usable water you need, which decreases demand for treated water and saves you money. Because the rain barrel catches water that would normally flow to the ground, it also helps the environment by reducing runoff waste water. Storing rain water can also supply you with an alternative water source during dry weather spells. And to top it all off, rain water is healthier for plants than tap water. What are you waiting for? Order a rain barrel today, and go green.

The rain that we catch will be used to water our flower and vegetable garden by attaching a sprinkler hose and routing the rainwater to the needed places. In our area of the U.S. we endure drought conditions and water is needed for use other than gardens, etc. Our Rain Barrel will be our source of extra water for such.

Gets the job done.

It works fine. However, the spicket is set up high, which leaves unused water in the bottom. I wish there was a drain so I could get it out, without having to clean...Read complete review

It works fine. However, the spicket is set up high, which leaves unused water in the bottom. I wish there was a drain so I could get it out, without having to clean it. Also the screen could be tighter, to keep in/out mosquitos. I like the color and style. It looks great in our front yard.

      Comments about Good Ideas 50 Gallon Plastic Rain Wizard Flat Back Rain Barrel:

      After order two rainbarrels and stand we decided we needed a third one; the order was placed on 4/13 and expected delivery date was set for 4/20. When it ships we would receive an email. On 4/24 I called to see when it would ship. The customer rep responded by email as I had requested but sent information regarding a previous order and said it shipped on 04/03. The order was placed on 4/13. I called again on 4/26 and was told it shipped on 4/25; however, I still have not yet received written confirmation. Improvements recommended include: 1] Ship both items together in one box; 2]If items must ship separately assign different shipping/tracking #s for each item. If I do recommend them again it is with reservations.

              This is the second rain barrel with stand I've ordered. Twice, the items come in separate boxes. Twice, the boxes were separated at birth and I received one box Friday and the other Monday. Why can't you ship both items in the same box?

              Customer Q & A

              1 - 5 of 8
                  1   2      

              Q1: Is the barrel BPA free?

              A: Yes, this rain barrel is BPA free.

              Q2: Is this product resistant to cracking from the freezing-and-thawing of extreme Midwest temps??

              A: It is resistant to very low temperatures, however we do recommend that you take the following steps to ensure the longevity of your rain barrel. "Empty or drain your rain barrel, remove spigot, run-off hose, and drain plug before storing for the winter. When possible store your barrel in a protected/indoor area but if the rain barrel must remain outside turn it upside down and secure it to prevent animal intrusion or water accumulation which can freeze, expand, and potentially crack the barrel wall."

              Q3: What about overflow?

              A: There is a shut-off valve for hose hook-up or dual overflow.

              Q4: Does that top section lift off?

              A: The top section does not lift off.

              Q5: Does this include the screen?

              A: Yes, the screen is included.
