Valley, NE | on our farm we have 2 smaller metal ritchie waters and one 6foot metal waterer, and couldnt be more happier with them, they are tough, durable and last a long time, but you will pay $$$ for the ritchie. the longer one needs to have an eye kept on when highs are in the single digits and lows in the negativwe because of the large amount of surface area, but we usually put an added heat lamp in the bottom when it gets cold like that for a while......
neighbor has an old fashioned concrete waterer and says it is the cat's meow and has only problems finidng older parts, when problems do arise, but it works fine
it depends on your checkbook, but i'm going to have to go with the Ritchie, and you're right get them with the heater element, it will save headaches on any waterer
