How can you tell if your rain gauge is an original floating rain gauge™? First, look at the quality. Our tube is carefully cut, not rough. Our measurement scale is accurate, not inconsistent. Our foam is a water-proof blue polymer, sized and calibrated for accuracy, not a blue-painted piece of sponge. Our 1/4" steel stake is sturdy and artistically made...and it won't bend. 

But the easiest way to tell? Ours is the original floating rain gauge™...the one without the "Made in India" label.
