No longer availableAug 01, 2010 This product arrived without the required mounting brackets and had to be returned because, we were informed, it is no longer available.
Not sureJul 20, 2010 I purchased this bird bath over a month ago and still do not have it up. The bracket is made for a 4x4 post and my railing isn't that big... I've had to make numerous trips to the hardware store to figure out a solution to get it to fit. There are two size bolts and neither one was long enough for a smaller railing and the bracket isn't long enough either so when you screw the bolts in they slip below the bracket and will not hold it in place. Maybe once I figure out how to attach it securely, then I might be happy with it.
It arrive quickly and eventually I think the birds will like it, but that remains to be seen.
Well-Designed Shallow Bird BathJul 11, 2010 I purchased this bird bath in early July and I really like it. It is a clever design. It is easy to install, though the top rail of your deck can't be wider than "6" as in "2 by 6" or the clamp won't fit. Mine is a 2 by 6 top rail, so it was very easy to install. The tipping feature makes cleaning a breeze and so I doubt I will every have mosquito problems.
I thought birds would descend on it immediately, but I can't say I have actually seen any birds drinking or splashing in it. A robin who has a nest nearby will stand on the edge of it and squawk at me for being in its territory, so I imagine it has used it as a bird bath too.
I read that birds are attracted to moving water and so I am getting a "wiggler" to put in it so that the water is moving.
NOTE: it is too shallow, 1-1/4" deep in the center if filled to the brim, to add a fountain/pump.
Easy to clean bathMay 17, 2010 This bath is easy to install, and my hubby and I are not handy with 'tools'. It's also a snap to clean, the hinge system works awesome. I like the shape/depth, and little groove for birdies to perch on around outside edge.
Very cheap and plasticMay 08, 2010 The bowl and mounting system are very flimsy. I installed it on a flat railing...but when I put water in it the bowl swayed and bent and spilled water out.
