Re: Water bowl poll
I use these thick plastic rock looking water bowls. I'm not sure if they are dishwasher safe or not, but I only have 4 to clean and refill, so it isn't that much of a chore...

Heavy bodied ceramic ones because they don't spill so much! One day I'm going to make it to the pottery to make some of my own with the base wider than the rim. I'm tired of wet newspaper!

Re: Water bowl poll
It depends on the humidity.
During seasons when humidity is low, I use the Zoomed Repti Rock water dish put half-way over the heater.
When humidity is high, I use the Exo-terra Water Dish.
I found that even when the Exo-terra water dish is on top of the heater, it doesn't raise the humidity by much. And I also found that the Zoomed Repti Rock raises the humidity even if it's not on the heater.
I only have 4 snakes and they're all on display vivariums. Or was. One of them is currently maternally incubating in a sterilite bin.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!"

Re: Water bowl poll
I use ceramic and I never had a tip over! They are really easy to clean!

Re: Water bowl poll
If a bowl is tipoverable my big girls will tip it heavy or not.
I use ceramic mostly and it keeps the spills to a minimum but they still can and will occasionally tip them.
I have an adult male yellow belly that seems to love to tip his bowl
