Great success so far! The birds seem to really like the moving water and I like knowing that I am not breading mosquitoes. I have witnessed birds drinking and also taking little baths. It's easy to set-up and quiet. I only wish the product had an "off" switch I could use (it doesn't) while changing the water. I bought the ceramic top version because I thought the top screw looked a bit unattractive on the unit. The ceramic top has an added bonus because it makes the unit heavier (won't blow in the wind, etc.) I use mine in a deck mounted (heated in the winter) birdbath. Therefore, sometimes the birdbath tilts slightly to one side. The water wiggler seems to stay put. I am happy to learn that I will be able to use in when I plug my (heated) birdbath in for the winter. My birdbath seems to be the perfect depth, but the water wiggler directions state that the bath can't be too deep (to submerge the little moter). If so, you will need to prop the unit up on something (I hear a ceramic tray turned over from a pot works well). However, without going too deep, the unit seems to produce the most rippling effect in the water if the water is as deep as possible. The manufacturer states that the two "D" batteries are supposed to last two months before changing. I cannot comment on that since I have only had mine for a month (and so far, it's going strong without any problems!). Since I bought the water wiggler, I have recommended it to several other people.

I had orderd the glazed wiggler to go with the color of my bird bath.
However they company sent the wrong one, I recieved the light up change color. I was going to return it but my kids thought it would look cool and suggesed I keep it. Well I LOVE it! The colors are beautiful, vibrant and adds to my garden. (Goes through every color of the rainbow including hot pink and teal) It also shuts off after 3 hours so It's not on all night.
Now that the water is moving I have a lot more birds visiting, and keeps the mosquitoes from reproducing.
Gave 4 stars for the mistake but really love it.

I like this Wiggler much better than the plastic kind I used to have. There is no short plastic screw with a slot in the top to get out of shape and let water in.
My original plastic Wiggler also lost its seal. If the ceramic one does that too I'll modify my review.
