"They fit the 5-gallon water buckets perfectly and snugly. They seem to be very durable. They got wet on the bottom, which froze to ice, then thawed, then froze, then thawed. The bottoms still look in great shape – no rips no tears. I take the cozy’s off once a week to scrub the buckets and slide them right back on. I’ve had to rinse off bran mash from the outside and doesn’t seem to change the effectiveness of the cozys. I haven’t actually used the top flaps yet, only because I’m concerned the horses won’t drink out of the buckets with smaller holes. But I haven’t needed them! Even when the temp was 10 degrees outside, in a closed barn, the buckets with the cozy’s did not freeze but those without did freeze. I wish the little teeny tiny straps that fold over the water bucket handles were thicker and a bit more sturdy. Otherwise I love these! The 4 horses didn't seem to even notice them."

"This bucket cozy works great very little to no ice formed on a day that was 8 degrees, while all the other buckets froze over. I will most likely purchase more of these."

"I purchased these recently, and they are fabulous! My horse's buckets were ice-free, even as the temperature dipped into the teens. Am interested to see how the hold up all winter, but off to a great start!"

"Only reason I did not rate this 5 stars as water still freezes at about 0. But at the same time when other buckets have ice maybe an inch thick, mine does not just a slight icing. The long period of night time feeding to morning is the longest and of course when it would freeze the most. May be a little pricey for someone with mulitiple horses. Good product to use if you do not want to use electric around animals which I do not."

"I had been thinking about buying the Bucket Cozy since last year to help when we have periods of freezing weather. I had read positive reviews elsewhere and since SmartPak has the Cozy with the free shipping, I decided to purchase a couple. I was sure to get the horse used to the Cozy before I needed them. I used them early in the season when we had a stretch of freezing temps. I tested a bucket with a Cozy next to a bucket without the Cozy. The one with the Cozy definitely had little or no ice compared to the other bucket. So far this winter has been mild so I have not been able to test it for the times we have longer cold stretches. It is definitely nice to know that even in freezing temperatures, the horse will still be able to get water."

"I have been using these since November and have now gotten to see how they perform at zero degree temperatures. After an overnight - I have only had about a quarter to a half inch layer of ice on the top, very easy to remove that little bit of ice (without the cozy I would have an almost solid bucket of ice). I do agree with one of the reviews that the stitching on the bucket attachment loops is very weak - on one of the covers - the stitching on one of the loops pulled right out as I was attaching the cover to the bucket (room for improvement there). Overall I am extremely happy with the product and have recommended it to many. A great product for barns & sheds without electricity for bucket heaters and also a great energy saver for all of us wanting to reduce electric bills! A great product if you are concerned about the safety of electric buckets with playful horses."
