Will I remember that original discussion. I must say when I upgraded to the larger 42 gallon tote I was pleasantly surprised to find out pneumatic tire where now standard.
Barker is a great company they replaced my leaking 35 gallon tote no questions asked.
I eventually sold the 35 on Craigslist and purchased a 42 gallon model.
Yeah, our tote is (I think) the 27 gallon unit. We've obviously had it for a very, very long time.
It has developed a tiny leak, as the result of a small crack in the body right where it joins with the dump valve assembly. Not surprising, as old as the tank is and how much we've used it (we've had it for almost 10 years).
I tried repairing it with some epoxy a few times, but it hasn't held. May try something else, but its such a tiny leak, and we only use it for grey water, so its not that big a deal. Have thought about contacting Barker about it, as they'd probably send me a new one for next to nothing, but its soooo old, I hate to ask them to do anything for one this old.
I too would like a bigger 42 gallon unit, and may well move up to a 42 gallon unit one day. Only problem is if we go any bigger than the one we have now, it won't fit in the storage space, places I prefer to put it. :)
I read on here about someone using a type of model airplane/car glue to repair their A/C shroud. Said it sorta melted the plastic & held it together. Wonder if this would work on a small crack on a tote? Don't remember the name of it but they got it at Hobby Lobby.
