Could someone describe the drain port? Is it plastic or rubber? Screw attachment or pressurized like a wine cork? Thanks.

It is a hard black plastic screw-like plug. It easily is removed to drain the entire barrel.

It is just like a soda bottle top. So one screws the top on. I only use mine to completely drain my barrels. I believe it is hard plastic and so is the top.

The drain connects to 2" pipe, either PVC of ABS. Be sure to use an appropriate cement - either PVC to ABS od PVC to PVC

There are two drain ports on the back. Lift front and water drains into toilet

This is an all metal faucet. The spout, body, handle, waterway...every bit is metal. The pop-up drain is plastic though.

I agree with the other two responses. The drain goes in like any other drain. I am on about my third installation, though, because the first two had the support that holds the popup rot off after a couple years use each. I almost gave up on the pop-up and just went with an open drain, but the third one seems to be holding up so far.

I don't know really. It was some sort of metal though. I thought it was nice but it wasn't the right color and the drain didn't fit my sink so I sent it back.

I think they may be talking about the black robber collar that goes in the drain in the sink, it helps keep stuff from being dropped in there accidentally, I like it that way, if it backs up I just push it down a little and all the water drains down with all the food. I have had it only a short time but it is really quite and all stainless.

It is a drain plug ,this is the best cooler I have ever owned, it keeps everything cold for up to three days if you keep it in the shade. We take it camping for extra cold stuff and put it in the camper at night so the raccoons don't get in it and steal our food.

Would you believe I had to go look? Ha. There is just one drain hole and it is about the size of a quarter, positioned just off center. It has a screw in plug if needed. Hope this helps.

The cap is twistlock. The drain plug is screw in. The electrical plug is standard three prong.

Unfortunately no. There is no drain plug. Just a fill port. I used sand to fill it and have forgotten about it ever since. Compliments my patio nicely. Hope this was useful.

it's plastic, megan, like the rest of the barrel, and has a drain hole. tae bottom is the same color, but without the woodgrain impression, as i rememberber. i never see the bottom. i have mine on a big stump, and it's full of nasturtiums. i like mine.

Hi Jim, No, it's soft rubber. after you drill the hole , fold the edge of the rubber piece and stuff it in the drilled hole. the rest just screws in place. I have over 20 rain barrels and most use this connection. I highly recommend it. You don't need access to the inside of the barrel to use this device. I've had NO problems with leakage. When you open the valve on this unit the water comes out with a lot of force. Much more than with a brass valve. I highly recommend this rain barrel equipment. Jerry

From the outside access panel bottom left there is a drain plug. You'll need a large wrench or socket to pull the plug out, it looks like a bolt head.

There is a thread in the drain which I secures the plug. As I recall it is removed by rotating the plug counterclockwise. You might spray WD40 in the drain if its frozen or rusted in place

The cardboard (aka "fiber") gasket *is* actually part of the drain assembly. Do not discard it. It prevents friction between the rubber gasket and the pressure cup or lock ring. The cardboard gasket slides on just below the rubber gasket, which should be up against the underside of the sink. (I know this is a bit late in answer to your question, and I hope you got good advice back in October, but in case future shoppers have the same question...)
