API 5WWGS Water Wiggler with Sage Green Glazed Pottery Cover

Works, but short life
I have had two of these. The second had this green terra cover. The first lasted 2 years with adjustments for battery life and problems with the little spinning arms. This second one I have had for about 8 months. Ready for a new one now.

The biggest issue is the spinning arms. The rubber comes apart from the base they are on and deteriorates. They then stop spinning. The last one I glued with super glue several times until it was just rotten. Water got into the casing and ruined the battery compartment. This one has the ceramic shell on top to protect a bit more, but the little spinning arms still have a problems with rotting (the rubber). This one had a spare in the case and I thankfully put those on. That was 3-4 weeks ago. Now the who spinning assembly has come off and I don't know where it is (maybe in washing the bird bath it got washed into the yard.

I really like this item, but due to the replacements (I did not mention that you have to continually pull...
Makes no sense to have something in birdbath that can't get wet!
This product makes no sense...it's very difficult to keep something in a birdbath from getting wet. Mine got wet in a recent rain (the water level got too high) and no longer works now that it's dried out. A waste of money...who has time to predict the weather and rescue the water wiggler from every rain?
great product
API 5WWGS Water Wiggler with Sage Green Glazed Pottery Cover
I have used several products of this type but this is the first one with the pottery cover. It is well worth the extra cost over the ones with just the plain plastic top. It prevents rain from entering the housing of the wiggler and just looks so much better. This wiggler works very effiently and is not so loud as to distub the wildlife while they drink. Oh yes, I have more than birds at my birdbath. I have squirrels, butterflies and chipmunks as well as a very wide assortment of birds. They are all welcome and we get much joy watching them sip the water then jump in for a good splash about. We are very pleased with this water wiggler.
