This has worked and kept my waterer from freezing in temperatures near 0 degrees Fahrenheit. Using it again for a second winter. Hasn't developed rust like others I've tried.

I have 8 chickens and keep a 55 gallon drum outside of their coop, with a pipe that enters into it for them to drink out of. Everything is great, but where I live, the temps can dip as low as -5F. That doesn't happen too often, but for sure, during the winter, it's not uncommon to get sustained days where the high is below 32F. This is the first year using this (this is also the first year of me keeping chickens!) and we've already had a few 18F low nights. So far, I haven't even seen a hint of frost inside the drum. What's nice is that I don't even have to put it on a temperature controlled outlet. It goes on and off as needed to keep the water from freezing. I'm curious, so I'm going to eventually put a kilowatt meter on it to see how often it's drawing energy and for how long. But the idea of my girls having clean, fresh water and me not having to do anything makes it worth it. 55 gallons is a LOT of water and for that not to freeze is all I need. Just an fyi, I also have a small pump that circulates the water through the pipe when it gets cold, always delivering warm water, because the pipe is probably where the water would freeze first. Anyway, I love this and just makes me have one less chore.

This works. It’s a little bulky and I can’t put the cover on my water container but it really does the job. I just leave the lid off. Subzero temps and water was not frozen.

I was really hopeful this submergible de-icer would work for our outdoor water troughs, especially with the colder weather approaching. Unfortunately, after several attempts, we couldn’t get it to work. Despite following the instructions, the unit didn’t seem to heat up or keep the water from freezing. We were dealing with freezing temperatures, and the troughs stayed frozen, which defeated the purpose of having a de-icer in the first place. It’s possible we just got a defective unit, but either way, we ultimately had to send it back. On a positive note, the design seemed solid, and it was easy to set up. If it had worked, I think it would’ve been a great solution for keeping water accessible for our animals during winter. But for now, we’re still looking for a reliable de-icer.

This is my second SLASHCOOL De-Icer, and it's been a terrific addition to my 300 gallon pond. The first one died a tragic death once the cord was clipped by a gardening weed wacker, but I purchased another since it performed so well last winter. I live in the foothills of Northern Nevada, where winter's overnight lows can drop below freezing for several weeks at a time. Using this particular de-icer, my pond remained clear of ice throughout the winter—there was no sign of freezing over. I adore the fact that it is submersible, heavy-duty, and simple to use. It's kept my pond with lilies and Shubunkin fish in excellent condition. I'd highly recommend it to anyone searching for a dependable method to stop their pond from freezing over which can cause oxygen issues for their fish!

This does exactly as advertised - keeps really cold water from freezing. My use was for a cold plunge in Minnesota on my deck, and it worked great. The only thing to beware of is the heat if out of the water. It is just as hot as a clothes iron, heating up extremely quickly. DO NOT hold in your hand to test if it works. It works. Take it from someone who held onto it one second too long…it works. Very durable. Easy to store due to the small size.
