Overview
A 60-gallon rain barrel with an elevated stand, stainless steel mesh screen filter, and a 3/4 inch brass spigot, built to collect and dispense rainwater for garden use.
The elevated stand is the functional detail here: raising the barrel improves water pressure at the spigot, which matters when filling a watering can rather than running a hose. The stainless mesh screen filters debris before it settles in the barrel, and multiple barrels can be linked for added capacity or overflow control, useful if 60 gallons runs out fast in a dry spell.
- Holds 60 gallons of collected rainwater
- Elevated stand for better spigot pressure
- Stainless steel mesh filter, 3/4 inch brass spigot
- Assembled size 46 in H x 24 in W x 20 in D
Who it's for
Gardeners who want to collect roof runoff for watering without a pump, and are willing to give up floor space near a downspout for a 46-inch-tall barrel. Not for anyone needing high water pressure or wanting to avoid any assembly.
Pros and cons
- Elevated stand improves spigot water pressure
- Stainless mesh screen filters debris from collected water
- Brass spigot adds durability over plastic fittings
- Can be linked to additional barrels for more capacity
- 60-gallon capacity may empty quickly in dry spells or larger gardens
- Some assembly required to set up the stand
Performance notes
Water enters through the stainless steel mesh screen, which catches leaves and debris before they reach the tank, then exits through the brass spigot near the base once the elevated stand adds gravity-fed pressure. The double-walled plastic construction is built to resist fading and cracking over years of outdoor exposure, and a linking feature lets additional barrels connect for extra storage or to manage overflow in heavy rain.
