Are any of the nipples you have okay to use horizontal instead of vertical? Meaning extending from the side of the bucket rather than the bottom?

I don't think that would work with gravity flow. I've just seen them done on bottom, but I may be wrong.

It can be used either way. I prefer horizontal. I did have one that snapped the clip off. However it was after it had a pretty good lick causing the clip to pop off.

Your hole should be just perfect enough that you have to screw in the nipples with a socket or wrench. That tight of a fit. If it's not like that then you have a hole size issue. If it is tight then you have a sealing issue. Easy fix.

I just went up to the barn where I keep my boat and Checked for you. Yes you can. The metal "spring" has a circle that the cup sits in and you can move the cup and water fitting so you can use the cups horizontal. Will work just fine. I really like the prodict. Very well made. Worth the money!! Hope this helped you. Wilton

Yes, it works fine that way. Mine had both a regular bucket and a bottomless one, but it works fine over a toilet without a bucket at all.

Should be all right horizontally..... but gravity does make it easier to shut in the upright position.

Yes- I have had to spread the forks to the edges of a 5' bucket to make it easier to pick up longer logs without worrying about balance. I seldom use the bar. Just be aware that bar or not , the forks are 4' long and driving them into a pile etc often moves the fork(s). I also have a wrench to tighten them . I have used the forks for a lot of things and am glad I have them.

Yes - horizontal placement won't make any difference. The vent flap has a little "click" to hold it open so it doesn't matter. Wonderful product!

I only have two and use them both. I have experimented with the top or bottom question myself. it seems they do better on bottom or in the middle. top didn't do well for me.

I used the pumpin' pal (large sized) flange, and I had a lot of spillage when I inserted it from the outside because the flange would require the hole to stretch pretty large. The suction was also extremely poor with my Medela Pump in Style Advance. When I put the flange *through* the bra rather than insert it into the opening from the outside - which solved both problems.

We did ours vertically. I really don't think it matters though, just personal desire. I didn't like the way it looked the other way.

We were able to shorten the one we bought up but we have have not purchased additional ones. I like it higher because you can't see as much plumbing.Does anyone know who I can call for customer service-one of the silicone water nipples popped inside the unit and I need help- actually was shipped that way.

No. I used a soda can and it worked fine. can be vertical as shown or horizontal.

I could not find this answer and I have both sizes. One does seem to have a faster flow than the other but the nipples are not labled, that I am aware of. I have mixed them up from using both so I don't know if it is coincidence or not. Please post an answer if you find out the flow of the nipples.

Yeah, it can, and is recommended, be set horizontally. I choose not to put mine horizontal, because my tank is divided and it wouldn't fit. But it says on the instructions when you get it that it is recommended to be placed horizontally.

Luciana, this is the MEDIUM Flow Nipples. Compared to the standard one, I believe the medium provides a suckling motion accordingly. I would use it as the baby grows.

I use s scoop from pet store and turn it sideways. The original scoop's holes are too big.
