4 out of 5 stars New Barrel at a great price, September 17, 2019By: Stu, September 17, 2019 verified customerWe received our 55 gallon barrel 22 days after placing our order. Considering it was produced after ordering and delivered from Texas to New York State, this was a pretty good turn around and delivery time. We expected the exterior lever locking ring, instead of the larger lever which unclasps inside the ring. It's not a big problem and we will make it work for our purposes. Definitely the best price on a delivered new 55 gallon drum, highly recommended!
