FCMP Outdoor WG4000-GRY Home Outdoor Wood Grain Rain Water Catcher Barrel, Gray

I've been wanting a rain barrel for passive water collection to water the garden for years. This past summer we had a drought and ridiculous heat and everything had to be watered so frequently the water bill was getting painful. So I was so excited I had the opportunity to get this water barrel from FCMP Outdoors. It is super lightweight and not too big around to make it difficult to carry. I was able to unbox it and move it around to figure out which downspout to put it under myself with no help or dolly. Installation was really easy. The grate on top is good for keeping it larger debris like leaves and acorns but still allowed in bugs. We have a big mosquito problem here so I had to add fine mesh over the grate to keep bugs out but that wasn't a huge issue. I think it will be a good size for my veggie and herb garden to help cut back on how much I pay to water it next summer. It looks nice across the yard with the faux wood grain. I'm glad it didn't just come in brown the gray helps it to blend in with my other outdoor decor. So it's been good so far I can't wait for next summer to really be able to use it!

This rain barrel is larger than I expected which is great! It has worked well for us to use under a downspout and the hose allows for easy water dispensing. I will be curious to see how the grey color holds up in extended sun.

I got this water barrel and love it. I didn't want to have those big industrial type barrels in my yard so this wood grain water catcher was a great choice. I love how decorative it looks in my yard. I like the hose attachment and it was easy to install. This will definitely help me save on my water bill by utilizing rain water more with my outdoor needs.

This is a Great way to collect rain water. It's not as big as other containers on the market. The color meshes well with my color scheme on my patio. It is installed with a drainpipe diverter so the water from the roof runs into it when it rains. The down side is the plastic hose holder it pops out of its hole when I try to take the hose out on occasion. It does have a function that allows yo to connect other containers to each other. To expand if you wanted to later.

I am pleased with this product. This is my first experience with a rain barrel but I found this idea simple and to work as I expected. The look of the barrel is nice-it does not look junky but kind of blends in. We do not have gutters in our southwest style home rather parapets with a higher up spout. This product is designed more for a house with a gutter. However we still manage to get a large amount of water in the barrel that we use to water plants. Again simple enough to use and is functioning as expected. I recommend this product!

This is a good sized rain catcher! We put it on the side of the house and we’re trying to be more self conscious with our water usage. It’s easy to use and take out after it’s been filled. It’s wonderful! I should have gotten one sooner!

This guy is great. We got this for our community garden and it's doing the job. It is thick enough plastic it should last a while in the sun. The debris shield on the top has held up good. I try and clear it off daily by someone who's there and it's getting the job done.

Nice sturdy rain catcher. Looks great and very simple to use. We have had plenty of rain here and it catches it from the gutter perfectly. Cold weather approaching so won't be able use it much longer.

I ended up using this rain barrel to replace the one that I already had so I cannot comment on installing it. This barrel looks very classy and is both functional and decorative in our yard. The wood look is nice and the material feels very sturdy. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking to save rain water for their plants.

This wood grain barrel rain water catcher is of good quality. It comes with a hose that has a shut off and on valve. There’s also a clip attachment to hold the hose. The screen helps to keep unwanted stuff out. Love the look!

I got this about a month ago so happy I did. It was a very fast and easy setup. We had a make shift one before this my husband and threw together always getting stopped up . Now we have this it works great and looks so pretty outside the garage. Definitely worth every penny. Great value and good quality product.

The FCMP outdoor wood grain rain water catcher barrel gray water catcher barrel is perfect. I love how it is flat on one side so it fits perfectly up against my fence to catch plenty of water for my garden. I love that it comes with a hose attached to make it super duper easy for me to get the water to my garden from the barrel. It is made with quality materials and I feel it is built to last.

I’ve been wanting some thing to collect rainwater to water my plants with because where I am at there’s been a drought and I’ve been trying to do my part in saving water in and this is so perfect not only does the collect water but it has a little attachable hose and a spout. The wood grain color matches perfect with my apartment. It’s so easy to install the rain gutter fits perfectly and I love how it’s rectangle because it fits in the corner of my apartment building better and it doesn’t stick out as much awesome product. I really love it.

This is a great way to save water for those thirsty plants. I live in Florida where it is very hot and my plants tend to wilt due to heat and lack of rain.. this was perfect.. there is a grate on top to catch leaves so the water inside stays clean. I collected rain and was able to use it for all my rose bushes. It even has a handy hose with a cut off valve.
