These rain barrels look visually very beautiful. Had previously Casks are visually but no comparison to these barrels. Have not yet been connected, but hope that they are tight. My choice much time on these types of keg, because they are simply more durable and maintenance free. The delivery was quick and accurate, much to the delight of my person. What, however, when opening the lid amazed me was that you get delivered such a barrel with plastic taps. This is sad in appearance, the price and the purchase of two barrels in the price range from the manufacturer. When I held out recently in ToomBaumarkt after water barrel, I saw the other manufacturers offer a brass screw-incl. Faucet. Conclusion: Good choice on product Cons: Price / performance (for the poor accessory equipment)
