Steel Barrel

Constructed most often from carbon steel or stainless steel, steel barrels or steel drums are durable and cost-effective, allowing a manufacturer to get many uses from the same drum and then recycle it once it is finished being used.

A barrel is more convenient as compared to a chest. Barrels are cheaper to craft, making them better for survival mode. On top of this, barrels can also be used when there is a block placed directly over them. Chests are quite cheap to craft as well, however, barrels are cheaper in comparison.
