Ok, I personally give this item 3.5 stars, first of all if you are on any type of municipal water system you will need to buy a RV pressure reducing valve($5-10 amazon) to get the pressure under 50psi before connecting this device to your water source(usually 180psi I learned as a child). I have on numerous occasions found this item dripping water onto my coop flooring when I go to let my chckens out. Getting the leaks to stop required about 5-8 sessions of fiddling with the connectors and hose to ensure it stopped. Now I seem to have all of the kinks out I am no longer seeing these issues. I did not use any plumbers tape on the connections and that may resolve most of the dripping issues. Also now that I own PVC glue should any of the cheap plastic connections leak I will glue them into place to fix that issue. They included a 3 foot long hose that was part of the problem causing my leaks and I have removed that hose from my configuration and have no more leaks. I do like the anti roosting cover as it has prevented so much poop from getting in the water. The poop issue was my fault as I had food and water set up then added a roost directly overhead(now corrected).
- Lenght: 14 inches
- Width: 12.75 inches
- Height: 10.5 inches
Final thoughts are that this item has worked well for me, and requires only a weekly washout as chicken aren't really able to foul their water. The anti-roost cover has a strong magnetic base and can easily be repurposed.
