I love my Mr. Gottfried, but had I known he was so fragile, I would not have ordered him & paid with shipping, $350.00!  The pamphlet that came with him really upset me that he can't take the weather like I thought he could.  So, now he sits at my door, not in my kids garden like I bought him for.  We live in the high desert in Hesperia, Calif. we do get freezing weather on Winter & hot in the Summer.  But paying so much for him, I don't want him damaged.
