Working great

We installed this in our yard to catch run off water that was building up near our basement and it has worked wonderfully.

Easy

Go design, easy to install, and fast delivery.

Easy setup

This basin worked very nicely for a dry well entry point that I made. I added the domed drain lid as I have to contend with a good amount of debris. Set up was easy and it works great.

This thing is really tough. Purchase the 6" universal plugs if you are going to drill into it instead of using the pipe adapters. We placed these as clean-out and jetter locations.

Nice Product & Great Price!

Used this to connect a gutter/downspout away from the house. The gutter originally just poured into the yard. With this it will probably end up filling this and below also into the gravel, then overflowing. Either way though, dug a trench, ran 4" plastic pipe to this catch basin. The catch basin had about 5 holes drilled into the bottom by me and then a foot of gravel below it. It hasn't experienced a heavy rain yet, but this got the ugly black pipe off the lawn and allows me to just mow right over top. It includes the box, grate w/screws, pipe connector, and block off. Two sides of the box were open and accepting of the attachments. This price was the cheapest I found online too. UPDATE: Working great and holding up well. This does fill up in heavy rain, then the water just sort of flows into the grass. Much better than having black pipe in the yard and it's keeping the water away from my house. I plan to buy a few more for all my gutters.

Solid construction

It's about 9" from bottom of a 4" pipe to the grill on the basin. Use a hammer and nail punch to rotate the collars into the bayonet mounts. Flexible perf pipe snaps into the inner collar. A plug is provided for an unused outlet. To prevent silting up during construction I stretched landscaping fabric over the opening and screwed the grill down over it.

Works great! Tape the screw holes, though...

Does the job! Drainpipe installs and seals up nicely to this box. I also used the extension. Make sure you tape the holes where the lid and extension attached to the box or else the screw holes fill with dirt and the screws won't work!

I don't drive on it and probly wouldn't recommend it, but great to collect rainwater

suited my needs perfectly in my driveway. I don't drive on it and probly wouldn't recommend it, but great to collect rainwater.

Very sturdy and useful

Very sturdy. I dug a large hole that was extra deep and filled the bottom with gravel. There is a punch out on the bottom of the basin that I used. I connected two 3" corrugated drain pipes from two different down spouts. So far so good. It looks great in the flower bed and saved me from having to shoot drain pipe under a very wide sidewalk.

Good product

Used many of these for a huge drainage project at my house. They really help make the job look professional and work great!
