'''Steerable Barrels''',<ref>{{cite|language=en-us|date=1995|title=''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' instruction booklet|page={{file link|DKC2 Manual 18-19.jpg|18}}|publisher=Nintendo of America}}</ref> also titled '''Steer Barrels''',<ref>{{cite|date=December 1995|title=''Nintendo Power'' Vol. 79|page={{file link|Nintendo Power79 17.jpg|17}}|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref> are objects in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''. These [[Barrel Cannon]]s are encountered in [[Fiery Furnace (Donkey Kong Country 2)|Fiery Furnace]] only, where they have a crucial role of carrying [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] across the enormous [[lava]] gaps. Steerable Barrels have a distinct control pad depicted on them. Steerable Barrels can be moved in any direction while the player characters are inside, but unlike [[Spinner Barrel|Rotatable Barrel]]s, Steerable Barrels always point in a single direction, making it impossible to rotate them. Most Steerable Barrels have a timer when entered, ranging between one to five seconds, and when the timer reaches zero, the Steerable Barrel blasts the [[Kong]]s out automatically and returns to its original location.
'''Steerable Barrels'''<ref>''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' instruction booklet, [[Media:DKC2 Manual 18-19.jpg|page 18]].</ref> (also referred to as '''Steer Barrels''' in an issue of ''[[Nintendo Power]]''<ref>''Nintendo Power'' Vol. 79, [[Media:Nintendo Power79 17.jpg|page 17]].</ref>) are a type of [[Barrel Cannon]] that only appears in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''. They only appear in [[Fiery Furnace (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Fiery Furnace]], where they have a crucial role of carrying [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong]] across the enormous lava gaps. Steerable Barrels are recognizable from a control pad depicted on on them.
 
When Diddy and Dixie enter the Steerable Barrel, they are able to move it around in any direction freely. However, unlike [[Rolling Barrel|Rotatable Barrel]]s, the [[Kong]]s cannot rotate and aim the barrel because it always faces one direction. Most Steerable Barrels have a timer when entered, and it varies from 1–5 seconds. When the timer reaches zero, the Kongs are automatically blasted out of the Steerable Barrel, which also vanishes and returns to its original location. This means Diddy and Dixie must quickly blast into the next Steerable Barrel or fall onto the nearest land.


Steerable Barrels do not appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]'', even in its own [[Fiery Furnace (Donkey Kong Land 2)|Fiery Furnace]] level.
