Arrived just as described. Seems very sturdy and able to be inserted into a rain barrel. Has all of the parts. Have not used but will update when used.

this is a nice spigot to add to your rain barrel for easy access. all the fittings are smooth and well fitted, the included Teflon tape makes sure you're water tight but I'm still not sure what the cord is for. My only complaint has nothing to do with the product itself but I didn't have a hose connected and my puppy could apparently smell the water and started chewing the nizzle. Luckily I caught him and the hose thread is a little rough but still fully functional.

This is sturdy and well manufactured. I have two rain barrels, and one has a large opening so that you can actually reach down with a grabber tool and place the inner part of the spigot through the lower opening. The other rain barrel has a small opening on top, so I was intrigued by their use of a string to slide the inner part of the spigot down to the mounting hole. I'm surprised no one else has mentioned this, but just sliding the inner part down the string, while a good idea, does not hold the part in place so you can attach the outer part to it and screw it in. Remember the part sliding down the string will have some silicone on it for additional sealing. For this reason, I would suggest either using a stiff wire, like a clothes hangar, made into a part holder or some other MacGyver technique to get the part through the hoed and hold it firmly enough so you can screw in the outer flange. NOT a deal breaker, just think through the use of the string based on where the hole on the bottom of YOUR barrel is and how large the opening is on top of your barrel.Also, make sure you really blast water against the inner mounting hole so that you are down to bare, clean plastic or else the silicone and/or gasket they provide will leak. If the area is clean (and train barrels get really sludgy at the bottom, where the hole will be, there will be leaks. If the area is clean, make sure its dry, and you seal it correctly, this should not leak as it seems well made.

Using this on a 55 gallon rain barrel. Hardest part is fishing the spigot down, but they even include some cord to use to do that. The spigot handle is heavy duty and easy to turn. The threads are good and the included rubber gaskets are the soft style silicone vs the hard rubber that cracks over time. I need about 3 more.

A good quality spigot kit for your barrel. I used a plastic barrel and converted it into a rain barrel using this kit. All the parts of this kit are made well and go together just right and without any fuss at all. There are 2 thick bulkhead gaskets that will deform and take the shape of the barrel radius on one side and the flat sealing surface of the bulkhead nut on the other. The kit also includes a generous amount of teflon tape for the spigot threads to screw into the bulkhead fitting and a couple of rubber hose washers for the hose end. Also a length of paracord is included since the fitting needs to be installed through the barrel filler opening and out of the 1 1/2 hole you drill. A diagram is included to show you how this is done.Assembly was easy once you realize the bulkhead fitting is left hand threaded. I placed an O-ring (not included) between the valve face and the fitting and I didn't have to really torque down on the valve to get it to seal.I filled the barrel about 1/3 high and there were no leaks anywhere.I'm real happy with this kit and it is definitely a good value for what you receive. The kit is very complete.

Simple drain for barrel. Got this for a rain barrel. Haven't installed it yet but it seems logical, just not sure yet on quality and leakage prevention. Will update post with any issues.
