Wildlife World Shenstone Theatre Bird Bath and Drinker, Light Grey

I love that it is gradiated so that all creatures can use the water. Hope it lasts as other buyers report that it hasn’t. (Did have the same one before and it did split but after several years)

I was very pleased when this arrived as it looked good, in situ.We have a black upturned dustbin lid which holds water to a depth of ~2" / 5cm. The birds love to bathe in it... but I wanted something better looking.However, the birds clearly prefer the bin lid! I think they like the fact that they can perch on the edge (which is vertical). it's also very good for larger birds such as Blackbirds and Crows which appear to want a good soaking. We also noticed that the water is considerably warmer in the bin lid, which in early spring might have made a difference.We've kept the new bird bath in place, in the hope that the birds might become more accustomed to it, especially the smaller ones. Time will tell! Might put it at ground level for the hedgehogs to use (the base stand is easily removed).So, I do recommend this, if you don't have any other sources of water!

Size is a good size for many birds to drink at the same time. Very pleased. Was worried about the weight and if it would be stable enough but it is perfect.

I started using the bird bath in January it looked great and the birds loved it, however by the beginning of March I noticed the paint on the bird bath began to flake off, leaving the black body of the bird bath exposed and it looks dreadful, I contacted the seller who in turn contacted the manufacturer, who stated the bird bath is guaranteed structurally for 10 years BUT this does not cover the paint coating. As the bird bath is intended to be used outside I would of expected the paint to stay on for more than 2 months, although I will repaint it the bird bath really isn’t fit for purpose and certainly not worth the cost. If I had known this fault with it I definitely wouldn’t of bought it.

In my attempt to avoid buying newly created plastic products and needing to replace a frost cracked birdbath from the same company last year, I really loved the look of this birdbath and especially that it was made from recycled plastic products. The new birdbath arrived today and I had ordered the stones to go in it for aesthetic effect.The stones arrived several days ago and are lovely. Nicely polished and a good selection of colours, I had high hopes for the birdbath. That said the birdbath arrived today, in two pieces; a pedestal and the bath itself. From a distance it appears quite pretty and elegant. Up close it looks a bit cheap and not nearly as nice as the ceramic one I had ordered from the same seller last year. Wanting to give it a fair chance, I put it in my garden in the place where the ceramic one had sat. Before I could get the stones and water into it, a breeze came along and knocked it across my lawn. Not to be deterred, I put the stones and water in and it seemed better. Still, I am disappointed with the appearance of it because I like nice things and am very into having my garden appear neat, aesthetically pleasing and with pieces that go together. This birdbath is just not that. I will be replacing it as soon as I find something suitable. I don't think I can return it as it has now been used.

The item is well made but smaller than expected.

Have get to see a bird to near it, but I suspect that they are quite happy with the rainwater butt and the plant saucer they have always used. It has proved very attractive to the hedgehog and foxes though. We clean once a week by using the garden hose and that proves sufficient. Bought a small number of pebbles for the birds to stand on .... Don't know whether this helps with stability but it is a nice solid piece and even with hedgehog pass on the edge it doesn't overbalance. Didn't get blown away with heavy winds either. We will be bringing in over the winter and keeping it weather safe in the greenhouse.

From a distance this item looks great, a modern bird bath with clean lines.The item is light and easy to handle making cleaning less of a chore.The colour is a little paler/brighter than I was expecting, it remains to be seen if its ghostly glow dampens with age.The finish however is poor, the colour wash has leached on to the decorative writing and gives the impression I've spilled paint on it. Doesn't stand up to close-up inspection.
