Tank is sturdy and well made especially since it is a USA product. The tank was delivered two days early! Have two other water tanks from another vendor shipped from Texas to capture rainwater. Their tank walls are not quite as substantial and thick. My wife even noticed the difference right away. Threaded manway and drain . Came loaded on a pallet with shrink wrap. Only wish Buyers Products sold valve components and fittings. Pickup was easy and your people were very helpful when I needed assistance loading it on my truck. I hope in the future the manufacturer makes dank green or black tanks. This tank is white but will be located next to a building in shade all day.
