No you're not the odd man out.  I have had a Petersen 34C as my main waterer for about 6 years now. It was the last one I checked yesterday because it always is ice free and working.

Some times no news is good news, especially about waterers in the winter. No discussion on here about Petersens may be a plus.

I bought and installed a couple less expensive Mirafount 3100's for pastures that I didn't think I would be used very much.  Tried a Bohlmann this time.

Next time I purchase any waterer it will be another Petersen concrete. My only issue with my Petersen is I seem to have to adjust the thermostat occasionally to keep the water from being too warm.
