I waited a little while before leaving a review. I can’t say enough about this De-Icer. We have had freezing weather and yesterday, snow and ice. The nights are in the teens so it’s really freezing out there. It does my heart so good to know I can provide water for the birds and any critter that needs a drink of water. I haven’t had it long enough to have to clean the De-iced but when I cleaned and changed the water in the bird bath it was fine.

They didn't use a stainless steel screw, so it rusts out and then falls apart.There is no reason to pay such a high price for something with defective parts. A screw that rusts used in an item that is only used submerged in water is inexcusable.

Bought this in Dec 2020. Not working this year. Well-taken care of. Minnesota. Considering re-purchasing but also thinking about the extra $10 for 3-year plan (if I could be bothered because you know how dealing with any kind of warranty goes!).

Bought this with high hopes but it does not work. It is hard to tell if it doesn’t work until it is cold enough outside so now the return window is closed by 1 day and I am stuck with it and a frozen birdbath. Not happy.

Really sturdy, well made and works in frigid Canadian winters. Kept the water in our bird bath ice free at -27C! Highly recommend this heater!

I bought this submersible heater to keep the bird water from freezing during our cold Minnesota winters. We have been below zero several days now, last night was -13 degrees and this morning the water is still liquid with no freeze over! The birds are enjoying the opportunity to fresh water. This is the best water heater I have ever had! Worth every Penny! My dish is a large plastic tray that you put under pots! It’s an 18” round dish and a little under 3” deep. I put a flat rock on the handle of the heater to keep it submerged and also for the birds to perch on. I keep the water filled over the heater, this means I top off the water every 2 -3 days. Your feathered friends will love this life saving heater for them!

We’ve had this bird bath heater for a couple months now but I held off on my review until we had below zero temps. Last night we hit -6 and the bird bath is still all water. Not even a thin layer of ice. Works as advertised. On another note...the heater says you should only use a special type of extension cord that actually screws onto the heater plug. After buying the extension cord...which does what it says...I figured out it’s made by the same company that sells the heater. You could use pretty much any heavy duty extension cord as long as you wrap the connection with something like Saran Wrap and then tape it well. Just keep the water out. Also...the bracket that came with the heater to secure it to the bird bath didn’t work. Ended up clamping it down.

This bird bath deicer provides water for birds throughout the winter months and the cord is nice and long that it does not sit in ice and snow with chances of shorting out

This is one heavy duty heater. I try to keep my fountains running all winter...birds need it, and it just cheers me up. I've tried all sorts of stuff, from having hot halogen spots on the bottom of the fountain, to those smaller bird bath de-icers, but after buying this, I basically took all that crap down, and just used this. It really works like a champ. It got super cold here this winter (0 F) and the large tiered fountain just kept running. It did get a bit of ice at that temp, but the water was still flowing. It's a really quality heater.

I read many of the reviews prior to purchasing this item, and there was a mix of negative and positive reviews. As per some of the negative reviews, it does not lie flat in the birdbath, you have to weight it with a rock. The positive aspect for me was the metal guard on the cord...squirrels chewed the cord on my last birdbath heater. I have only had it in place for a week so it is too soon to tell if it will stand the test of time, but so far, so good!

So easy to use and works great in our cold winter months when all of the water around is frozen! The birds love it. Set it up in my year round bird bath and it works like a dream. 6 foot cord is great too, allows enough length for plugging in without an extension cord.

I live in zone 8. I have a small 2-tier water fountain that the birds take baths in. Even with the fountain running all the time, the heater was able to keep the water at the correct temperature. The water ran freely all winter, and I didn't really notice a higher electrical bill. The birds really appreciated having running water in the fountain when the regular bird bath froze over.The only downside to this product is that the rounded top edge of my concrete fountain didn't allow the cord stabilizer to get a firm grip. The birds kept landing on the metal bracket and dislodging it. I ended up putting a small rock on the heater to keep it firmly at the bottom of my concrete fountain. If you have a pail with a straight side, the bracket should work just fine.It was a good purchase.Update— the heater stopped working after 4 years and started tripping the GFCI when it was plugged in. We had an extremely cold winter in 2016 and the heater worked more than it had in other winters. I still consider this a good purchase.
