The rain barrel is about 3 feet high, 2 feet wide, and 2 feet deep. It’s the perfect size to fit on my porch and fill with water so I can do a 60° cold plunge every morning. The nice thing is, if the weather gets warm and the water starts to warm up, the bottom spout with a short hose quickly drains the tub so I can fill it with fresh cold water from the garden hose. It only took me about 15 minutes to read the instructions and install the overflow hose and the bottom spout. This is a sturdy yet lightweight rain barrel, easily assembled, amd if I accidentally overfill it, the overflow hose ensures the excess water goes where I want it to.
Note: I am 5’ tall and 100lbs, so this is a large enough tub for a smaller person to “cold plunge” in up to the neck. If you are taller or built bigger, you may need a larger barrel to do a cold plunge.

Still good after seven years
I've had this barrel for seven years. I only have two small cons: one, the spigot is too low for the watering cans we use to fit under it, and two, the spigot has self-clogged and gotten rusty while sitting idle in the off-season.I've gotten around both of these by just keeping the lid unscrewed, and popping it off to dunk a watering can in when I need rainwater. Much faster!After seven years in use, aside from the spigot aging, it works great. No leaks from the spigot (though I worry the gasket wouldn't seal again if I tried taking it apart), and this is the only barrel I've found with an overflow hose to go right back into the downspout.This past summer I've found shed mosquito larvae exoskeletons in the watering cans when I dunk them - I'm not sure if females are laying eggs on the screen, which then get washed in by the rain, or if a few get in to lay eggs when I take the lid off for a few moments. But, judging by all the dead adults I see floating in there, none of them escape once they pupate. I'm calling that a win. You could treat the water with Bt for mosquitoes, but we use this water for our invertebrate pets so we don't have that option.

This is a very high quality water barrel, the best I have owned. The plastic is very thick and have no concerns over this cracking from heat or sun. The unique thing about it is it's double hose outlet on the very top on either side. You can hook a second barrel to it or use the attached hose to direct water away when it's full. I also have a rain gutter attachment that hooks into the barrel from one of the outlets which is the main reason I bought this. The water spigot is solid brass high quality and secures to the barrel very tight. The top screws in with four screws to make it a tight fit. The top screen is not removable which is a good thing.
The advantage of this design is that over flow water does not come out if the top or a built in vent. That type design causes water to build around the barrel and also permits mold to grow on it. With this Enviro Barrel, water is directed away to where you want it to prevent flooding and also prevents mold from growing on it.
Overall, this is the best designed barrel on the market. It's not made to look pretty or match your house, it's designed to catch and hold rain water. I have owned previous rain barrels and this is one that's been the best designed in my opinion.
UPDATE! Just purchased my second barrel and hooked it to the first one. In regards to someone else's review, BOTH came with brass spigots. They were ordered months apart. They work perfectly and am watering my garden from them! Excellent quality!
