This was not easy to set up. I could not tighten the lid with the included screen, so had to cut some aluminum screen I had handy and fit this inside the lid so it would't cover the threads. The plugs and spigots screw directly into the plastc barrel, and the thick but not threaded plastic makes it hard to screw them in. Only two plugs are provided. The company could have provided extras so the user would only have to remove plugs, not fight to screw them in. It was very hard to install the included faucet in the lower hole. I had to climb in the barrel, head first (!) to do so. The faucet seems flimsy, and the outflow hole is smaller than the inflow. I haven't yet used my hose with it for watering, but wonder if I'll get weaker flow than from my last rain barrel. 
However, the barrel itself is sturdy and there are no leaks from any plugs or faucet.
