Amazon tells me I last ordered this in 2014 so I got 9 years of use out of it (my current one started tripping the breaker). I use it in a 5 gallon water bucket for chickens. The water never froze in the bucket but the water nipples outside the bucket would freeze in extreme temps. I probably could have gotten more life out of it had I not left outside at the chicken coop (unplugged) year round.

2 years ago when snomagedon attacked us we had no way to keep the stock tank defrosted, and fought the ice all winter. In TX you never think you need something to take care of thick ice. Everyone was sold out of tank heaters. So I purchased this in the spring and kept it for the winter. When it turned cold, and we once again had a terrible cold wave come through and everything was frozen, we hooked it up on our tank and had NO ICE! Even on the bitterest days the tank was ice free. Didn't make a huge difference in the electric bill either. Would recommend highly

I am a big fan of Farm Innovators pond items. I have 3 of the green deicers and they last about 2 years each. I have hard water and the lyme starts building up on the product which I’m sure has something to do with their life span. I actually just purchased a new “green” deicer along with this item, all from Pond Innovators. I have my newest green deicer along with this product in my Koi pond and together they work wonderfully. I have not had to remove any ice off the top of my pond yet this winter. All of my airlines are open due to this. My pond liner is vinyl and this product nor the green one has melted it nor caused any damage. I may be going overboard with 2 deicers but I’m very OCD about my fish plus I have no desire to ever start carrying buckets of hot water out to my pond to dethaw thick ice. I live in southeastern Ohio and we’ve had a pretty bad winter so far. Temps in the teens and quite a bit of snow. So far so good. I would highly recommend this but be aware, it’s not a “lifelong” product. Expect it to last maybe 2-3 years if you have hard water. It’s cheap enough to repurchase. There’s actually a warranty included with all of these deicers but I’ve been too lazy to ever fill it out. Shipping is phenomenal as well. Amazon said to expect the item about 1.5-2 weeks later since it wasn’t Prime but low and behold, I received this product in 2 days after ordering via FedEx. THANK YOU!

Its hard to complain about this item when its -20 and your not carrying 5 gallon buckets of water for your horses. The Good... - ( were in Alaska ) When its -20 in a 100 gal rubber maid plastic tank the water is ice free. ( probably 75-50 gal in tank ) -Has coiled ( I assume zinc over steel ) cable protector for those horses that play with cords cord is also long enough to make it out of deep tanks and very stout. -stand offs keep it off of bottom of tanks ( can be used in rubber maid tanks ) -sits on bottom of tank ( our horses used to throw out the float type ) i think this one has a thermal protection in case that does happen ( not confirmed ) The Bad... - I wish there was a way to modify the thermostat ( I don't know the exact temp but our water is very warm say 40°+) i'd like it only above freezing not a problem with one horse but if you have 15.... Comments: please note this is 1500 watt, if you have one circuit and you string a bunch of these together expect to pop a fuse. ( should not be an issue most of the time but below zero these things come on a lot ) -there were some comments about longevity, this is a great unit ( above par with other units ) its not stainless steel and it does have a cord on it, we've gotten about 3-4 seasons on our last one before it died ( and we ordered another one, and we will again in 4 years... ) -costs... its 1500 watt, if you live some place where its cold and this is on all of the time its like having 15X 100 watt bulbs on. its not bad, its whats required to keep it ice free when it has warmed up the water enough it will turn off. ( other have given this a low rating because of the power usage, if you only need a 250 watt one your ordering the wrong one... this is the monster truck of water heaters. ( some may need other may not )

Solid heater, the cord could be twice as long for better placement when placed from above. Cord protective covering is a nice touch.

We've bought and used countless submergible de-icers on our farm through the years. A good portion of them were junk, some were pretty good and only one will I say is good quality, this Farm Innovators deicer. With that said, I don't consider it great. Great to me is one that would last 10 years or more. Unfortunately that is very rarely the case. We long ago came to expect that we would need to replace them in the 5-7 year range. We have had a couple last about 10 years. Though for the time and effort it saves in keeping the water troughs open and the initial cost, its well worth the money. We have used them in 40 gal tanks up to 150 gal ones. The temperatures here in the winter are well below freezing and dip into the minus temps a couple times every winter. These de-icers have no trouble keeping the water open for the animals. We have 4 different tanks that we put one deicer in each. There are complaints in the reviews about them not working after a short time. This has happened only once for us in the 20 or so we have bought through the years. We find them very reliable and they are the only brand we will buy. If you are going to use them in a plastic tank, you might want to place the deicer on a couple of bricks to keep it off the bottom. One plastic tank was ruined from it melting through the bottom. I feel that it was an extreme isolated case, but setting it on bricks is worth the peace of mind. Hope this may be of help in your decision making.

This unit works well in my horse water trough, keeping it from freezing over diluting our occasional snap freezes. It does start collecting mineral deposits from the well water and needs to be cleaned with vinegar or a de-calcifier solution after use (or during if prolonged use). The thermostat appears to work well, only heating the water when needed.
