Smartware 4104 48-Gallon Recycled Plastic Oak Grain Design Rain Barrel with Brass Spigot and Mesh Debris Screen Review

First off, WTF?It comes in halves!Yes, a barrel, that is supposed to hold liquid, comes in halves. How does it stay together?2-sided tape!I'm at my wit's end. We as a people no longer demand, nor expect, quality.We are spoon-fed junk.Everything is horribly made and breaks all the time.Is this a rant?Sure, but come on already!How hard is it to make a round rain barrel, in one piece, that does not look like garbage, and costs less than a few hundred?Apparently more difficult than a lunar landing.The metal bands corrode and rust.Doesn't include a diverter.
The sad thing is that this IS the best product offered on Amazon in this category!
