I have sheep, goats and miniature goats, as well as large dogs and have used the five gallon (20 quart) buckets in winter for many years. For me, it is easier for me to carry the 8 quarts than 20, and easier to dump out when cleaning.Most of my animals think this bucket is fine. A couple of "Prima donna" sheep with larger heads are fussy about this bucket, because they just don't like having something close to their faces, but other sheep and all goats like it just fine -- seems to be a matter of personal taste. It is a perfect size for lambs to drink out of as they start to wean. I have one in the pen where lambs are born and it is a handy size for a ewe who has just lambed to drink her molasses water, or for a mom to share with her babies. It is so important that pregnant and lactating animals keep hydrated!The water in the barn comes out of the pipes at about 50 degrees -- the temperature of soil below the frost-line (and under the barn). The water in the bucket is a bit warmer and the animals appreciate the gently warmed water.I was thinking of regulating all my heat lamps and water buckets through a heat-cube at the outlet, and then changed my mind: The bucket already has a thermostat which can tell if the heating element needs to be on or off. There are times when the barn in the area of the outlet may be draft-free, while an individual bucket may be in a draft, and if the electricity is turned off, the bucket will freeze. If it freezes, it will crack. I've lost a couple of five-gallon heated buckets by unplugging them too early. Make sure your electricity is on!BTW, I have used grounded Outdoor Christmas Light extension cords hung from the ceiling by big blunt utility hooks and plug the buckets in at the top of pen-panels, or high on support posts or walls -- out of reach of curious lambs or kids. I have even used buckets outside in freezing weather. I appreciate that this product comes with a grounded plug, and a wire coil around most of the cord so that curious little teeth can't get a hold on it . Also, I have yet to hear of any animal getting an electric shock (however mild) from a grounded heated water supply. I think this is a superior product as heated buckets go.

These saved so much time and effort when the temperature dropped into the teens.

I bought these for my ducks when their water froze. Unfortunately, we had single digit and below zero temps and these buckets exploded out the bottom. I believe they were not designed to tolerate temps that low.

Worked great. When everything was freezing super fast this kept the water temp tepid and easily consumable for my goats and livestock guardian dog. 100% worth it! I've only used through one winter so not sure about longevity, but absolutely 100% happy with the results so far. Was FANTASTIC not to have to worry or run out multiple times a day to water my livestock in the frigid cold.

First one quit working within about two months. Thought it was a fluke so I ordered another one. It quit working immediately. I think the seal along the base isn't tight so water gets in and shorts it out. For $50 I expected better quality.
