    480 HydroBarrel

    Posted by Paul F Jennings on 21st May 2025

    We wanted something big and this barrel is perfect. It arrived on a pallet and we easily managed to move it into our garden. Emptying and cleaning have been easy as the inside is smooth. The barrel looks like a real wooden barrel without the worry of having it leak, if not mantained. Very happy with it.

    480 Hydrobarrel

    Posted by Sarah Williams on 16th May 2025

    Purchased a 480 to replace our oak barrel. The hydro barrel is a game changer. Easier to manoeuvre when cleaning & looks just as good as our oak barrel. The service from Dan was prompt friendly and efficient. We would totally recommend this company and with a 5 year warranty on the barrel, what's not to love. The barrel itself is sturdy and with our folding plastic stools, getting in and out is a breeze.
