210 Litre Water Butt and Lid, Black

The generic 210-litre butt is the cheapest in this ranking per litre at £0.238: £49.99 with a lid, 4.2 stars from 104 ratings.
It takes sixth because the value is the best here and the listing is the thinnest: no kit described, a weight of 1kg that is impossible, and 104 ratings against 537 on the butt above it.
