I ordered 3 of these 5-liter barrels with defects. So far one has a slight leak, one had 2 loose hoops and the other was basically perfect. I didn’t buy these for show, so I’ll update later once I’ve gotten some use out of them.
As far as I can tell so far, these are fantastic for home brewing/aging.

The spigot was a little off center and the hoops were loose.
All of which were not a problem. I soaked the barrel for an extra couple of days and the barrel sealed up 100% and the hoops are tight. And I just turned the barrel a little to the right and the spigot is in perfect position.
Service and delivery time were excellent as usual.
