Will buy a different colour, see if she hits that.
Works better than expected. lasts well providing you avoid direct strong sunlight as this makes it brittle
This is my third. I feel a little bad re-buying these because of the plastic waste, but nothing lasts too well out in the sun for several years. The plastic gets brittle and can crack. But these are really cheap to replace as needed, and give a nice accurate reading. The shape also means that for low rain they are extra accurate because they gather rain through the wide top opening but are very narrow at the bottom, so 1mm of rain is easy to ready. But as they fill up this “magnifying” effect drops off so for heavy rain two inches can still be registered. Simple and effective. Empty when needed or before rain is forecast to see how much rain each rain shower holds. And it also provides proof of how little rain we do actually get down here in the South of England, relatively speaking, which is handy to refute my son’s regular assertions that it’s “always raining” 🙂
This is proving to be very useful in measuring the rains we are having in my area and is just as accurate as the more expensive rain gauges.
I ordered it to catch the daily rainfall- which is exactly what I wanted
brilliant and easy to explain to a child as part of an ecology project for school
The plastic top of our rain gauge went very brittle out in all weathers and eventually cracked. Was very pleased to be able to buy just the top and not have to buy the whole thing again and the green colour won’t discolour like the clear one so is a huge improvement.
Love this! So nice to have an indication of what rain has fallen over the day.
Arrived quickly and being green, blends into the garden well : )
Used as much as a novelty than for serious rain measuring does the job well
Easy to use. Only concern is that the ground spike might turn out to be a little fragile. I am very happy with the rain gauge so far.
This is easy to read and the spike makes it easy to place in the garden.
The plastic is brittle and I know I will knock it and it will crack as previous ones have. But it’s cheap enough to replace.
It replaced one of a similar style that got broken. This one seems to be OK, but I suspect it is vulnerable to breakage if a storm wind happens to grab it and throw it around.
Although this has many positive points the one negative is that the markings are difficult to read. It would be better if they were larger or in a contrasting colour.
After recent flooding I am now measuring rainfall . this is qucik ,,, easy and siple. Sits in my raised bed by the back door and helps me to monitor the rainfall I get. Useful little rain gauge- I doubt it would suit hard ground but my raised bed is perfect for it.
