Now that the warmer weather is starting to arrive, many will be wanting to spend more time in the garden – for family gatherings, to get some sun or to watch the wildlife. That’s why many are investing in a bird bath at this time of year.
Luckily for shoppers, on Amazon, the Yepper 35in Metal Bird Bath is currently available for £23.99, down from £27.99. This is said to be an Amazon’s Choice product and more than 100 have been bought in the past month on the site.
It comes in the colour ‘Antique Bronze’ and is said to have an upgraded five-forked base that resists tipping and adds more stability. The metal stake with a black powder coat finish offers strong support, too, so it is hard to bend, break or fracture, the listing says.
The bird bath is described as ‘weatherproof and rustproof’, and it has a large capacity, with a diameter of 12in (30.5cm) and a depth of 2in (5cm). The brand says shoppers can add a solar fountain instead of adding water all the time.
What’s more, no tools are needed and the brand says installation is very easy and can be done in minutes. The durable bowl detaches from the steel ring for easy cleaning and filling, too, making it simple to look after.
As an alternative, there’s this Gardman Wild Bird Feeding Station from Argos for £22. This is described as a heavy duty, three hook design feeding station, which includes a medium bird bath with a support ring and feeding tray.
Or for those with a higher budget, there’s the Primrose Glazed Ceramic Pedestal Outdoor Garden Bird Bath from Debenhams for £67.99. This comes in the colours blue and green, is easy to assemble and has a glazed ceramic construction.
Shoppers have left an average overall rating of 4.2 out of five, from more than 800 reviews, for the Yepper 35in Metal Bird Bath from Amazon. One said: “Good quality and easy to put together. Having the forked base makes it so easy to put it anywhere in the garden and stops it falling over in the wind or when larger birds land on it. The removable dish makes it easy to clean and is lightweight. It looks good, too!”
A second wrote: “Solid construction. Very easy to assemble. The bowl’s flat bottom makes it ideal for using as either a bird bath or for holding seeds and nuts. Wide bowl with a decent depth makes it large enough for several birds to comfortably use at the same time. The decorative shape under the bowl can also be used to hang fat balls or other lightweight food. I would recommend this item to anybody wanting an economical and still attractive garden bird bath/food bowl.”
While a third said: “Very easy to assemble and I like the colour, rustic look. I actually bought it to have a small fountain in it and hopefully the birds will come and get some water. It’s not too heavy, very sturdy once installed, and good value for money.”
Others left some feedback for the product, with one writing: “It is a great product, but it frustratingly doesn’t stay standing for long, even in fine weather. The birds love it but are put off by its constant stability issues.”
Another said: “The bird bath looks great, the dish itself is very sturdy, however the stand is not so good.”
The Yepper 35in Metal Bird Bath is available from Amazon.
