Van Meter IA | Cobett hands down. Have used Ritches for years and nothing compares to this. It ices over and you stick your foot in it and pull the ice out. |

|
EC Kansas | Cobett for sure, have used one for over 10 yrs, only replace the valve once. |

west central Iowa | We put Cobett waterer in 10-15 years ago, put 2 more in this fall. We put electric line to first water tank and have never put an elec. end on the wire. A wire isn't a bad idea, but we just haven't needed ours yet. |

western iowa,by Denison | Bohlmann;have had the jug,ritchie and others,the Bohlman waters in the last 5 years have really been updated-we run the electric models with the overflow option-Mark is the head guy at Bohlmanns,owner-with hands on experience-they are priced reasonable and if you mention stock talk-and Gary Vetter you should get a discount-if you have a emergency and need a water today he usually can get you one-I try to give him a 4week heads up-He likes stock talk,and understands cattle feeders-and if you have a suggestion on how to change a water he will listen!
We have one now temporary installed without the overflow hooked up or the electricity and it is workin fine-almost afraid it might be permanent,you can do a goggle search they have a good website-Denison Iowa |

North Central Kansas | Very happy with the Cobett, just installed a second one. Had experience with Ritchie's and like the features of the cobett much better. |

Nova Scotia | We have a couple of SPI 352ng waterers, very tough & simple design, just use a submersible heater in the outdoor one.
