This barrel truly looks like real terra cotta yet is so light just about anyone can manage it. 
On the down side, the plastic spigot didn't work and had to be replaced with a metal one. The hose was delivered completely clogged with debris. 
Difficult to install the pump we bought that goes with it--the pump is installed inside on the bottom which took some ingenuity to get it secured. I would recommend this barrel just because it's pleasing to the eye and a green thing to do. Don't install the pump, maybe buy a new spigot as well as overflow tubing and it will be fine.
