Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)We are using this in a roughly 250 gallon backyard pond that had not been serviced in any way in over a year prior to this spring. The pump and filter are doing their job but we seem to need to clean it far more than I would like. We've been having some algae problems and it seems to get clogged or at least need cleaning 1-2x/week because so much goes gets stuck in the filter. Since we have a small pond pulling it out and doing that is easy, but that would get annoying quickly in a much bigger pond (though this is not designed for bigger ponds).
I don't know the exact amount of power used by this item but I've barely seen a bump at all in my electricity bill, and that bump is more likely from the other new items I have plugged in 24/7, so on that end it is doing well.
The fountain itself is great and has a variable adjustment for height, and it's very relaxing to have operating. Since we bought it my wife has spend a great deal of time just relaxing watching the fountain and fish in the pond. She was a bit skeptical when I ordered it but pretty much as soon as we plugged it in she's been a big fan, which is not the case for many of my purchases.
