Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Love the design BUT unfortunately, it has major manufacturing flaws.
The plastic clip that holds the lights out of the water broke during assembly -- I tried taping it and ran the fountain but then got worried that the tape would fail & the lights would fall into the water, creating an electrical hazard. This small plastic part probably costs the mfr. less than 50 cents -- or as the unit is made in China, probably more like 5 cents!
Amazon couldn't send a replacement part so sent a whole new fountain - no doubt an expensive round trip for the parts not needed! After I dug in the box for the right part, and made the swap, the same clip on the new fountain broke. The plastic is too brittle to "give" to accept the light. Very frustrating. I wound up gluing it but that glue is not going to hold for long in that wet environment.
Other problems: Lights stay on all the time - there's no switch. Within a couple of weeks, the paint in the bowl developed bubbles all over it so instead of the smooth look shown in the photo, it has a bumpy look. Not attractive.
Consider this a temporary fountain -- it is not built to last for even one season.
