Haven't had this very  long so don't know how it will hold up. (That's why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5).  I got this one to replace a similar one I had which split at the bottom (underneath), which I had left outside through the winter.  I felt the instructions for set up could have been a little more explicit (I'm not a "handyman").  I do like the shape of it -- much nicer than a plain old barrel.  There seem to be a number of these that look similar with varying prices -- comes down to accessories and quality of material??
