HERO is a Toronto based company that creates extraordinary products. They have come out with the 365 line that promotes better habits in everyday living. A line of resource saving objects that are very well-considered. One in particular is the RC-1 Rain Collector. It holds 45 gallons of water; so you can tend to your garden or wash the dog without tapping into the city's water supply. It's made of a lightweight aluminum frame, has a collapsible water bladder, will not rust, is recyclable, ships flat packed and is covered in a sleek powder-coated finish. I think this is a smart and beautiful piece for any backyard. I could see this coming in handy for washing messy little feet before coming inside!

Amazing product!!! We have just received our first shipment of RC-1 rain collectors in the UK (thanks to the guys at Hero!). If you are UK (or Europe) based, we can supply the RC-1 rain collectors at our garden furniture and product site, Bau Outdoors. Our first shipment is small, so be quick! www.bau-outdoors.co.uk

Wow! This is pretty cool. I think these would go really well in an older property - maybe a Victorian house etc. Normal water butts are so ugly! Had a look at your garden furniture site - looks great, but a little out of my price range!
