Just received this water butt and it looks great. If choosing again I would go for a bigger water butt as I was hoping to connect it to a sprinkler to water the grass in the summer but I dont think there will be enough water stored to do that (from appearance) as regular as I hoped (but thats my own fault for not realising that! I did replace the supplied tap with a Farm & Field Water Butt Lever Tap c/w Double Outlets to Polypropylene 3/4" BSP Male Thead so I could both connect a hose and fill the butt from the bottom.

Good quality, premium lookWas slight annoyed the based had been discontinued, but I ordered this and I think it looks even better -> Sankey from Strata GN653 49 Centimeter Oakwood Barrel Plastic Planter - Natural Oak Great looking, shame it doesn't have the matching base. It's done what we wanted,we replaced the blue industrial butt with this and it looks very attractive. This fits the bill totally and is so textured that from a short distance it look like a real ancient pathos.

Very well made and much more ornamental than the normal water butt Cheers. No water in it yet so cannot say if tap is sealed. I had some trouble with the tap so changed it to a spare one from my brewing equipment. Just need it to rain now & fill up.

Also I used a Starta Slimline Water Butt Stand to Suit 20L as this is perfect for this water butt. Will update if any issues. Just like terracotta but is in fact very light plastic.

Recommend both product and seller. I am not much of a gardener so wasnt sure what size I would need or how big it would be and this is smaller than I expected. well pleased with product would recommend pity terracotta stand not available to go with water butt

We wanted another water butt to sit in an area filled with pots, but would fit in. It has a deep threaded hole for the tap rather than having to tighten a nut on the inside.
