Overview
A 50-gallon rain barrel made from 100% recycled, UV-resistant polyethylene, with a flat back panel and black finish. Suits homeowners collecting rainwater for garden and lawn watering who want a barrel that sits flush against a wall or fence.
The flat back is the practical detail here: it lets the barrel sit against a house wall or fence rather than needing clearance on all sides, useful in tight side-yard spots near a downspout. A built-in overflow valve manages excess water and can connect to additional barrels if more storage is needed later. It is made in the USA from recycled plastic rather than virgin material.
- 50-gallon capacity, 100% recycled polyethylene
- Flat back panel for tight, wall-side placement
- Built-in overflow valve, expandable to multiple barrels
- Made in the USA
Who it's for
Suits homeowners with a downspout in a tight spot who want to harvest rainwater for garden or lawn use. A barrel stand is sold separately, so budget for that if you want the spigot raised for a watering can or hose.
Pros and cons
- 50-gallon capacity from 100% recycled plastic
- Flat back design fits snugly against walls or fences
- Overflow valve allows linking multiple barrels
- Made in the USA
- Barrel stand for spigot height is sold separately
- Recycled plastic barrels can show cosmetic wear over time outdoors
Performance notes
The overflow valve keeps a full barrel from backing up during heavy rain, routing excess water out or into a second connected barrel. UV-resistant polyethylene construction is meant to hold up to sun exposure over repeated seasons outdoors, and the spigot at the base handles day to day water retrieval.
