Customers say
Customers find the water dispenser to be of high quality and perfect for various small animals like guinea pigs, rabbits, and rats. The bottle’s sturdiness and functionality receive mixed reviews – while some say it stays securely attached to the cage, others report it can come apart, and while some say it works well, others find it completely dysfunctional. The chew-proof feature and material quality also get mixed feedback, with some praising the glass construction while others note it’s not chew-proof and prefer metal over plastic. Installation experiences vary, with some finding it easy to attach while others struggle with the cap/lid not screwing on properly.

I’ve been through almost every glass bottle even
A rentacoop bottle that I thought would work but this one works like a charm. It’ll spill out when you first flip it over but just clean the spout and apply it to the cage and it’ll stop. I just bought this and got this last night and thought it was going to be spilling like the rest but I was wrong! Might go for the bigger size next as this one is too small for my guineas but it’ll be perfect for like 1 or 2 guineas. Easy to install as well just fill up to the make it full and put the plug in first then screw the top on as tight as you can. It has to be really tight! This was not as advertised but it does work! I just filled my guineas bottle and cleaned there cage and I haven’t seen any drips out of it yet! I’m just waiting for a few more hours and hopefully it’ll be clear of water! I’m just glad I found something that actually works! Also it didn’t come broken though when I got the box it sounded broken lol but it was a pain to put the clip onto the bottle. I’d suggest put the clip onto the bottle and let it sit for a minute to expand so it’d be easier to put onto the cage.

Highly recommended
This is my second of these glass water bottles for my small animal (chinchilla) and the 1st I had for 5+ years before it was accidentally dropped. It was knocked from the top of the cage so very high up as we had actually dropped many times without breaking so they are quite strong but are glass after all. But they are the best and in my experience the glass has never leaked or become leaky over time. I truly believe the plastic bottles create air constantly and unfixably in between the ball and the tip like a suction cup pulling the ball upward from the tip. Some plastic is durable in the beginning but over time becomes more flimsy and the result is inevitably the same, a leaky water bottle. I believe the glass is the fix to this issue. So I highly recommend a glass drinking water bottle, this one or similar. Hope this is helpful.ð

Quality Has Gone Way Down Hill
Over the last two years I have bought three glass water bottles in the 12 ounce size. The first one I bought about a year ago in 2023 and it was just like in the pictures with a stainless steel cap and worked great. The other two I just purchased in June 2024 and they have plastic caps that do not feel like they are anywhere near as good of quality as the steel ones from the year before. I decided to give them a try anyway and the plastic cap makes it much more difficult to adjust the angle of the water tube itself as you tighten things – it wants to bind and not allow adjusting. But OK I can live with that – just an inconvenience compared to the old style. Next, when I went to mount the bottle to the cage the newer springs are now literally several times over longer than the one I received from last years bottle. OK – maybe that is better because too long of a spring can be adjusted shorter and maybe someone needs the longer spring so OK I’ll live with it as well. So I got the first one mounted. Then I go to rinse out and fill the second bottle from this 2024 order and there’s a hole in the bottle and water is leaking. There actually is a hole in the glass bottle as if it was formed that way. It is not a crack mind you – but instead a relatively clean hole about 1/8 inch in diameter. I’ll be returing the defective one and not buying these any more.

Best bird water bottle I have found
Consider this to be the best flat-sided glass water bottle on the market. Use it for my Senegal parrot. Easy to clean, very sturdy, comes with two attachment devices that keep it stable.

Worth it
Good glass water bottle, meaning itâs safe for rats! This is also able to hang inside the cage. The only sortâve issue Iâve encountered is sometimes ths nozzle leaks/drips. However, it seems to have something to do with the angle itâs resting at, and most of the time the drip will eventually stop if you adjust your angles. A bit of trial and error, but other than those few small hiccups that pop up occasionally, Iâd say this bottle is pretty great! My rats even like to use the top (bottom? Itâs flipped, so idk) as another extra platform to climb onto. Itâs adorable, and I highly recommend this!

Dripping
As many others pointed out, the quality is controversial. The bottle is dripping. The cup is plastic, not metal. Overall itâs better than plastic alternatives I used to use, but far away from the desired quality. And the pictures are misleading for sure, portraying a different product with metal cups. I believe this product gone the same direction as many before: they started selling high quality items for good reviews and then switched to shipping cheaper alternatives.

Works well!
Great replacement glass water tube for my gerbil’s cage. It is working well and no leaks! Note that the screw-on-lid is plastic, not metal, so if you have an intense chewer â¤ï¸, this water bottle may be damaged. I overlooked this when I ordered, so I was expecting all glass and metal. Happy with this item though for the price and my needs.

The metal cap is missing rendering the bottle unusable. Iâd love to receive a replacement.

I have rats and always had issues finding good water bottles that didnât leak or break after a few months of use. Iâve had this bottle for over a year now and it still works amazing. The quality is really good and I have no complaints at all. I never have 1 leak. As mentioned in some other reviews there is a specific way to tighten this bottle so if people say it leaks it could be because they tightened it incorrectly. You need to make sure everything is dry when screwing the top on as well, as any water around the opening of the bottle or in the plastic/rubber cover will prevent a good seal. When screwing the top on itâs best to start with the spout facing the flat side of the bottle, and then you hold the spout itself still while turning the plastic cover clockwise. After you feel youâve tightened the cover enough you then turn the spout clockwise as well until itâs tight. This will take you a fair bit of trial and error to get right but after you get it once itâs so easy to do every other time. You want the tightened spout to be facing the flat side of the water bottle when youâre done as well. If your spout is tightened anywhere not facing the flat side then you should loosen and try again, it really is a lot of fine tuning to get it just right but once you do this bottle will not leak. Itâs also really easy for rats to use, and I havenât noticed my boys struggle to get a sufficient water flow or anything. The ball bearing moves easily for them as it is light and never gets stuck in the spout. The bottle is very easy to clean as well. Also the turtle floater is adorable, love that little guy (although be careful when emptying the water bottle in the sink as the turtle floaty is small enough to go down the drain). I highly recommend this bottle, especially to other rat parents.
