(2-pack) Toland Home Garden Clear Replacement Rain Gauge Udometer 227200

Okay; Here's how I broke mine and how to prevent that. I dropped it into the wire holder from too high and shattered the edge. It didn't help that I hadn't emptied it out as we had 4 inches of rain that night and I wanted to show my wife first.To cushion the edge I cut a piece of foam packing material (that 1/8 inch thick stuff) into a kind-of washer, held in place with an o-ring. I suppose not dropping it into the holder with 4 inches of water inside might prevent it breaking too. Duh.Anyway, two for not much more than others want for just one is a pretty good deal. I have one in reserve.

When my rain gauge broke from leaving it outside, where it froze, I went online and ordered two more refills, as I am sure I will leave it out again in the wintertime and it will freeze again. They were mailed right away, and I am now able to keep records of the local rainfall.

They are somewhat taller than I thought they'd be, and the diameter doesn't seem to be as advertised, but they work OK, which is all that really counts.

I purchased the Toland Home Garden 210603 Cattail Rain Gauge a couple years ago and we recently experienced an storm that brought freezing rain and snow to Texas. Unfortunately, I forgot to pull my rain gauge out the night before. Needless to say, the gauge filled with about 1" of water overnight and, as it converted to freezing rain, froze solid breaking the bottom of my gauge out. These replacement gauges are an exact fit to my original.

We had left our old rain gauge (udometer) out last fall and it froze, cracking the glass. These replacements, even though from a different company fit the holder perfectly. Shipment was almost scary fast, got them overnight with Prime. Perfect and just what we needed

There is nothing wrong with this rain gauge. I just have not found a holder that it will fit in. I was looking for a replacement for a holder that I already have and this one was not it. I have been looking instead for a holder that will fit this gauge, and I can't find that either.

I forgot to bring in the glass udometer on my rain gauge this winter and of course it cracked from top to bottom. I ordered a 2-pack replacement and am very happy with this purchase. The ordered arrived in a timely manner and the product is in perfect condition. The numbers are large and easily read. I am looking forward to using this product this summer.

Great product. Only 4 stars because I wish they came in plastic, too. The glass breaks if dropped or if it is left out with water in it and it freezes.
