Farm Innovators Heated Bucket

Bought for my three horses, as the weather was particularly brutal this year. The three pack was perfect for my needs. The buckets are hardy and the plug is heavy duty. I was able to plug them in and use rights after a good wash. They hold 5 gallons of water and the top is a good size for the horses to drink. The handle is strong and can handle a bit of jostling by the animals. Worth the price.

I never dreamed I'd need heated buckets in Florida, but I am in northern central Florida in the" Horse Capitol of the World"... North of Orlando, but still south of snow. We had a 4 day hard freeze over Christmas and when I saw it coming I panicked because I had 3 new horses, all on outside board. I ran to the internet and found these, compared prices and sold!!! Thank you to the seller for getting them here so fast and for not gouging the price in the winter. The buckets are amazing as they don't start automatically heating until the temp hits 35 and they turn themselves off when the temp rises to 60... which didn't happen here for 4 days. The water never froze but it wasn't hot either, just perfectly tepid. A couple other regular buckets of water froze solid, as did a big trough. I was so relieved to know my horses had plenty of water to drink. I am fortunate to have outdoor (covered) electric sockets on the back side of the fences around the pastures, but I also had to use an outdoor rated extension cord for a couple, which worked safely. I tried to test these before using and was upset because they didn't heat up... BUT like I said, the thermostat is automatic and turns on and shuts off according to the temperature-not just because it's plugged in. Highly recommended!

Works great I got them for my burners

Excellent buckets.With this weather in sub zero our water stays warm.Easy to clean and they look great!!

Arrived just before our frigid temperatures arrived. I really appreciate not having to bust ice every morning and evening. The water is just warm enough to keep my fussy gelding hydrated. It was so easy to install.

Perfect for winter watering.

Does the job keeping the water from freezing but it is a little difficult to dump and clean every day because of the chord. We ran the chord out the back through the no climb wire fence so the horses could not fiddle with it...so its difficult to pick it up and dump it without unplugging it. Other than that minor problem they are well made and do what they are supposed to. I had ordered two and one of them was making the water a bit too warm and it was steaming and the one horse would not drink it. I returned it and they replaced it by the next day no charge. Can't argue with that!

I’ve had this for a couple months using it and well below freezing temperatures. Last night was -8 and there’s a little frost around the rim. I love the functionality of the cord and the cord storage will be great for in the summer. It has a nice heavy duty handle and makes it really easy to carry. I like it better than carrying a normal 5 gallon bucket.

Good quality bucket. Nice size. Water doesn’t freeze but it still feels quite cold to touch but we just had a cold spell so maybe that is why. My water heaters kept kicking out so I switched to this bucket and it seems to be working no problem and keeps the water from freezing so I guess that is the most important thing.

Bought this for a mini pony living in a Montreal winter - keeps water from freezing easily and the thermostat keeps the water at a good temperature without using extra energy - great product!

Très satisfaite

I initially had a problem with one of the buckets. Vendor responded to my request for a refund or replacement within a day. Turned out to be unnecessary since the problem turned out to be at my end. Nice quality, definitely great in the current cold spell. No concerns at all about ordering anything from this vendor in future.

Dogs are never out of warm water. Very good sturdy pails. I have 2 large Rottweiler pups that chew everything including stainless steel pails. I built 3/4" plywood boxes with hinged lid with hole smaller than the pails, drilled hole to run cord out the back of box. I put a lockable clasp on the front of the box and lid so they can't open it to get the pail out. I have had 165 pound puredred rotti and none have ever gotten the pail out. These pails last for years. Evev in Canadas -40 below my dogs have water living outside in their pens. The dogs talk there way into the heated garage but their pails stay out, never find them frozen.
