5 out of 5 stars It has been working for 7 years now   November 21, 2008
Jean Carol (Kingston,New York)
It works well but since my bird bath is only a few inches deep, it tends to get above the water, and then the water freezes. I will think of something to keep it in the water, maybe a rock on it.


2 out of 5 stars Still looking   November 17, 2008
Lea Ann Post (Arlington, MN United States)
This product only had a life span of two years for us. When it worked it kept the bath mostly clear of ice and snow even in our MN winters. Our prior heater, from Allied, at least made it five years. We used both of them in a stand built for a farm supply three gallon feeding tub (racoons broke all of our regular bird baths) and both of them worked about equally well, that is when they worked.

3 out of 5 stars Limited lifespan   December 6, 2007

I'm on my second heater of this model and am searching for a different model. The prior one lasted about three years and now I find my bird water frozen solid with my latest acquisition from about three years ago. The fellow at the feed store tells me that is about its typical lifespan.

The main issue I have with this model is that it is not very stabile in the pan and the heating coil tends to tip up above the top of the water level. I've tried epoxying the unit to the bottom of the pan, but even using epoxy intended for underwater use looses its grip after a few weeks.
