Just did not like it November 16, 2006 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
If you want a good rain gauge that is easy to read & install get this one: Chaney Instrument 5-Inch Capacity Easy-Read Magnifying Rain Gauge
A good idea with faulty base November 14, 2006 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This gauge is great for visibility when it is about 10feet away from your back yard window, but make sure to place it near a tree trunk or pole, as the base is NOT sturdy at all.
If you have hard ground, it will not easily push into it for a stable season, and will not last a second if you have kids running around the yard.
Only get it if you want to mount it on something using your own ingenuity!
It would be a much better product if the base was made of metal.

Don't Buy August 7, 2006 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
The plastic mounting piece (to push into the ground) that comes with this rain guage is so flimsy ours broke instantly. It is no more than 1/8" thick in the spots where it has holes drilled in it. Even if it had not broken on the first try to push it into the ground - any slight bump against it would break it. The gauge itself seems fine - but I cannot imagine why they made the mounting plastic so small.
