Wonderful product! Great price! Because of the price, I buy a dozen washers and keep them on hand every spring. To prevent leakage, we add another washer to the teat unit after the lambs get older and become more aggressive feeders.

Outstanding product deserving of a "lamb-saver award." Our original ones came with a farm-store lamb bucket and are still going strong after four years. The rubber washers get squished after many uses, so keep extras on hand. I got extras of the teat units too and have never needed them. My hands aren't very strong but I have no trouble getting these apart for cleaning. We start our bottle lambs on Pritchard nipples, switch to the brown ones, and then the red stiffer ones.

These are great. The installation instructions are clear and easy to follow. Took me maybe five minutes total to set up a bucket with the 4 teat units. Pay attention to the form of the lip of the nipples that will work with the teat units if you don't plan to buy nipples when you buy the teat units. They can be used with Pritchard nipples, but you need extra washers. I was skeptical about extra replacer being wasted in the bottom of the buckets, but my lambs get all of it. My lambs also took to the nipples instantly and I didn't have to help them. I sort of milked the empty nipple so it was full which I gave them the first bucket, so when they explored, they'd immediately get a taste of food. Worked great. They went from Pritchard to the latex nipple with a different color, with only a few seconds of being fussy about the different feel.
