I have trouble with raccoons stealing and destroying my rain gauges. This one they can't get at because it is bolted down. I used to tie the other ones to the patio table and they would still get at them.

This is the second gauge I’ve purchased. Good quality and easy to read from a distance. Great construction and a good value.

As much as we really really like it, I have to warn you not to leave it outside in freezing weather. It’s my fault ours cracked because I left it outside with rain in it when we had a normal November freeze.

This is the best rain gauge we have had so far. Easy to install, easy to read and love that red plastic marker. You do have to be careful not to lose it when you empty the container. Would definitely recommend.

We use this rain gauge on our patio. We needed larger numbers to see and something with a wider opening to be more accurate. Study and well made gauge and mounting hardware.

Parece funcionar bien, el mercado rojo se desvaneció con el sol hace una semana. Es fácil de leer desde la distancia.

My last one was smashed by softball-size hail at the end of September (see photo) so I replaced it with the same thing. I checked that the rail on the deck was level -- it was -- before I installed the replacement, but putting a thin sliver of wood or plastic under one edge would have worked to level it if needed.It works well and is easy to read even if you don't use the red floating plastic (see photo). I like the graduated scale which makes it very easy to read when there is only a little rainfall. (Some people are confused by the graduated scale, but if they can't understand that part, they are probably at a loss to understand a rain gauge anyway.)For the last couple of years, I have removed the rain gauge from the holder from late December until late February so I would have to worry about it freezing and cracking (after all it IS plastic!), but it didn't survive the huge Oklahoma hailstorm. If it happens again, I will gladly buy the same thing again!

This is such a fun looking rain gauge, not the boring cylindrical kind! It is much larger than I anticipated, but that is just fine with me. The gauge was mounted on the top rail of our deck and it is very easy to read from inside the house. It is also incredibly easy to mount.It is made of fairly thick plastic and seems to be quite durable, but the real test will be once the hail stones start beating down on it.

This needs to state it is in inches and not MMS for Australian customers.Looks great but I have to convert inches regularly to be able to have a yarn with the neighbours.

We've gone through a number of rain gauges over our lifetime...most of them the skinny upright tube types. As far as the durability of those tubes, it never seemed to matter how much we spent on it. Whether it was a plastic tube in a plastic holder or a glass tube in a metal holder...if we forgot to bring the tube in before a freeze, there would be just enough of a crack in the bottom that the tube would no longer hold water.I originally bought this waterfall rain gauge at our local Lowes a few years ago. With the larger-sized container and huge numbers, we were able to attach the holder to an inconspicuous spot of our furthest deck railing and still be able to read the gauge from inside the house. And it worked great for many years until this winter when it finally developed a tiny crack. I ordered a new one from Amazon. It's the exact same design as it was years ago; so I was able to just put the new measuring container into our existing holder.The only small issue that we've had with it is the floating red plastic guide. The rectangular piece continually floats on the water within and more easily allows you to read (from a distance) where the water level is. Only problem is that 2-3 times a year we get major pounding rain storms which exceed the 6" capacity. Sometimes I go running out to empty it as it fills; but most times I choose to stay dry in the house. In these instances, we've occasionally had to go looking for the small red strip because the torrential rain washes it out of the container once it reaches the top. Not a regular occurrence, thankfully; but it can happen...and has :)
