SHB Co. Second Hand Barrels 3808 Stanka Lane, Godfrey, IL 62035

"Ryan and Faith it did an absolutely fantastic job on getting me my barrel for my bar. Such great and very nice people to deal with extremely talented group of woodworkers. I will be back to get additional pieces thanks so much."

"I purchased a custom made end table for my living room. The custom engraving exceeded my expectations. The quality of the handmade table is exceptional. I highly recommend Second Hand Barrels. This is my second purchase from SHB and it will not be my last."

"We love how our barrel bar furniture turned out. From out first initial contact with SHB, Ryan listened to what we were looking for, offered suggestions and exceeded our expectations on the quality and craftsmanship. We even asked for a “new” design in a bar table with half barrels and glass doors. We left the creativeness to Ryan and he did not disappoint. We did have to wait a bit longer for our items to be delivered, than we were expecting, realizing you cant rush quality work, we were more than happy to wait. We did end up having one minor issue, which Ryan came promptly came out to resolve. We highly recommend SHB for their quality products, professionalism, customer service."

"I purchased 4 half barrels for my daughter’s landscaping and we were very pleased! They were exactly what we were looking for. The quality of the barrels and the service are beyond expectations. The owners were very prompt and friendly. They loaded them for me and explained how to care for them. I highly recommend them!"

"The barrel itself looks great and I was happy when I first saw it. However, I was unable to get an unobstructed view of the finished product until I had it in my home as it was already wrapped and ready to load. While I want to give the business the benefit of the doubt on preparing it to load, in hindsight it seems mildly deceiving given some of the issues with it. There are three major issues with it: 1. The cutout for the door is crooked. 2. The metal band on one side of the door is about 1/2” short. 3. The door does not close all the way. After contacting the owner, he informed me that the stress released from cutting the wood causes it to deform. I feel like this should be disclosed upfront because it is a pretty significant amount of warping. I am not inclined to believe that this is the entire issue because similar barrels I have seen from other shops do not share this problem. This was not a cheap purchase and I expected a higher quality of workmanship for the price. I would recommend looking at other businesses in the area that offer custom barrels. At the very least, I would avoid having a door put on your barrel."
