Novelty Dippy Drinking Bird
This SKU 29233 is available in EU direct. EU: 844029233
When the head of the bird is moistened with water, it will repeatedly?bend down?and appear to be drinking from a cup?of water in front of it. The dunking is due to the evaporating water, which cools the head reducing the pressure of the gas inside. The liquid inside the bird rises up from his tail towards his head, causing the bird to?bend down and appear to be drinking.?When the bird dunks, the liquid returns to its tail, and the process begins again. The novelty dippy drinking bird only needs water to run.

- A felt covered head and has plastic feet
- Fluid inside condenses from the evaporative cooling of the water off the bird's beak, making it top heavy and dunking it back into the water
- The condensate rejoins the liquid pool in the bird's bulb, and he tips up again
- Process continues indefinitely
- The fluid and dye inside the bird can permanently stain, and the bird's glass body can easily be broken
- Children are fascinated by the bobbing bird, and the educational possibilities are great

    Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)

    Pros: It works just like it should. Liquid in glass tube warms up really quickly if you happen to hold it in your hand.

    Cons: Build quality isn't the greatest but still good. Box came in the mail crushed but the dippy bird itself was pretty well protected in a generous piece of bubble wrap. Just don't expect it to move really fast and really often.

    Other: Have fun watching it bob up and down. Worth it. Buy it! :) All fields aded together, your review does not contain more than 500 characters.

    Cons: need to find a cup just the right height... about 8-10 cms (3.5")

    Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)

    Pros: This is awesome! He just sits here drinking and drinking, for hours on end! I was surprise to go to sleep and see him still drinking the next morning. I haven't seen any stores sell these, it's nice to see them being sold again. This would be great for any child, as a desk toy, or anyone who likes cool nifty things like this.

    Cons: I'm not sure, but I think since his beak stays soggy forever, it might lead to mold if your water isn't clear.

    Other: Worth every penny.

    Cons: dont expect too much on quality..the plastic edges can be sharp sometimes..so be careful

    Other: if you like to be entertained or bored at work then get this...and you wont be dissapointed for $4.50...no complaint

    posted by SponsBob on 14:58:48 G9T 23/09/2009 certificated customer

    Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)

    Pros: Great fun, the box says when it starts drinking it never stops. That's true, the first time i set it up, the bird drank from 18.00u till 01.00u. Maybe longer but I went to bed.

    Cons: Not easy to adjust to get to drink, is no problem really once it's set it works great. Big con: you can se the inner working, it was better if the glas was painted or covered, now its easy to guess how it works.

    Other: Great fun for a little price, what more could you want??

  • Amazing, but a little small

    posted by asskickerrr on 14:15:40 G9T 24/09/2009 certificated customer

    Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)

    Pros: This is amazing, fond the working principle on Wikipedia. Once you get it set up, your kids (or you) will never want to stop staring at it. And for this price... It didn't even break during transport although the packaging was dented a lot.

    Cons: I was kinda dissappointed about the size. On the picture on the site it looked at least 30 cm heigh, while in fact it's onl about 15cm heigh. Nevertheless a great bagain.

    Other: This is a must have for every gadget lover, certainly at this price. Buy it!!!

  • it really drinks

    posted by Jooyz on 19:16:45 G9T 27/09/2009 certificated customer

    Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)

    Pros: this thing does work!!! I was quite sceptical when I first ordered this because of the cheap price. but again it does work, it keep rocking back and forth and never stops

    Cons: the build quality is always been the issue with china made items, but I guess the cheaper price compensate it so its ok!! you really need a glass of water with this to work because it has something to do with the bird's beak getting wet and evaporates...bla bla bla...so make sure you prepare a glass of water...and not beer

    Other: well if you like unusual toys then get this, it will surely suprise you over and over again...

  • Dipping Bird that ROCKS!

    posted by georgieee on 12:46:12 G10T 06/10/2009 certificated customer

    Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)

    Pros: - came undamaged - lots of protection during the shipping - not too big (i thought it was huge) - actually works - dips for hours... - cute - good for teachers who are teaching physics - good product

    Cons: - the metal bar was bent when i got it (weird) but u can easily bent it back - sort of expensive, but had to consider shipping... - huge glue splatter on the bottom (not a big deal)

    Other: Get it if you want to put something on ur desk that moves without any electricity or what not. Get it if you think its cool. its only 5 bucks. Fairly cheap. I hope the felt tip don't rot cuz i'm leaving it in the water all day....

  • Best dx purchase ever made

    posted by steven1350 on 14:46:04 G10T 21/10/2009 certificated customer

    Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)

    Pros: It really does keep going and going. It is very entertaining to watch, and to show off to friends. Also being under $5 it is definistly worth it

    Cons: Took a little tweaking with the metal brace so it could get its cycle going. Its also a bit messy. Since its always bobbing in water, it tends to drip a fair bit which can turn into a small puddle if let alone for a while. Feather was also pretty ugly looking (I removed from my bird, he thanked me)

    Other: Worth every cent

    posted by juanpf on 13:55:33 G10T 22/10/2009 certificated customer

    Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)

    Pros: No encontré otro lugar donde vendan un producto similar, es igualito al pajarito de Homero !, y el precio es muy económico. La calidad es acorde al precio

    Cons: La caja llego algo golpeada, pero el pajarito esta intacto, es difícil encontrar el punto de equilibrio para que continué tomando agua, pero una ves logrado, sigue haciendolo por horas !

    Other: Un objeto de culto que no podes dejar de tener
