Farm Innovators "All-Seasons" Heated Plastic Poultry Fountain - 3 Gal. Model HPF-100, 100-Watt

I just purchased this at our local feed store. I picked this waterer because of the heat source to keep the water from freezing. I find is very poor design having to flip it over to fill it and then to turn it over again. When you turn it right side up water is running out of it and then somettimes the top comes apart from the bottom flooding the pen.... Disgusted going to town to find a better waterer. SIGH!!!

We purchased this last fall to use in our smaller coop.  It worked well for us.  I found it a little cumbersome to handle when full (3 gallons is about 24lbs. - I think.) and it is hard to balance on it's top to fill from the bottom.  As long as it holds up to wear and tear, I am happy with this product. 

I bought this waterer and only used it for 1 day. then took it back. The bottem kept falling off. At the store I bought it from the checker said she saw many returned for the same reason. FI need to fix how it attaches to the bottem. Its funny cause advertising says new Twist and lock system. Well it may be new but it does not work. Noted I was hanging the waterer it may work better if not hung. but there is a handle at the top that looks like it was made to hang.

I bought this waterer over a year ago, and It was worked like a charm every single day since! It nice because I can use it for Ducklings and chicks, and then use it with my adult fowl. The plastic and is good and strong (except for the handle). It is very good at preventing my chickens water from freezing, even in -10 and snow.  Th only con is that the cord is only about 8inches, which makes it hard to plug it in without an extension cord.
