Solar Fountain Bird Bath with Solar Panel, Rockery Granite Water with 5 Nozzles Solar Water Fountain for Birdbath Outdoor, Pond, Patio Garden, and Fish Tank

I’m so disappointed. My solar fountain has stopped working at only 2 1/2 months. I’ve bought different solar pumps before and they lasted a year, they were 1/3 the price. I thought this one would have lasted longer since the price was higher. Don’t buy it.

Great idea if it worked. The solar panel is in direct sun. Pump is in water up to the sensor and nothing! It worked inconsistently and now not at all. Disappointing. I bought a plug in pump instead to make my own birdbath fountain.

I really liked the idea of this item-- BUT-- when it arrived and was set up it became clear that the strength of the sun was much higher than the area that it was placed, it only ran 25% of the time because it was in a semi shaded area. If you do purchase this item and want to enjoy the sound of constant flowing water, ensure it is placed in direct sunlight with no shade. I did end up returning the item after 2 weeks.

I but it on the ground, for an outside tortoise. So the water won’t be stagnant.Easy to assemble & works great.

It's tough to find an actual bubbler for birds that is sturdy. Unless you want to build your own and/or spend a bundle. Since our season is short - a long-term investment isn't smart - so we decided on this little fountain. It is much like many others in regards to basic pieces - fake rock/solar panel/various fountain effects via various attachments - all pretty much same quality. Average quality - but effective. Birds are attracted to the moving water - the only negatives: this little fountain requires regular cleaning of the filter device and solar panel must be manually redirected depending on your sun situation. Otherwise - it's just a fun little garden addition

This item comes with no instructions, so this is what I finally figured out after looking at the product photos on the listing:- The solar panel is NOT a battery—this item only works when the panel is in DIRECT SUNLIGHT.- That means it does NOT work when the sun is behind even the tiniest cloud, or some leaves, or is blocked by your head when you are trying to make the water not spray everywhere.- The little metal thing on the side of the pump must be submerged under water for the pump to operate.- It takes at least three seconds of PERFECT CONDITIONS for the pump to work: the pump must be submerged AND the panel must have the sun’s brightest rays shining directly on it FOR THREE SECONDS or nothing happens.- You need a fairly wide bowl, birdbath, tub, for this to not make a big mess. I have this centered in a low 18” diameter planter that I waterproofed and no matter what nozzle I use at least some water shoots outside the bowl. That may be okay aesthetically in situations that can handle moisture, but it means it is going to expel the water pretty fast, which will lower the waterline below the pump sensor and it’s going to stop working. That is if the sun is not behind a tiny cloud and it’s already not working.- It is cute and I really want to like it but this is not practical or reasonable for the price.- If you haven’t figured it out already, I am going to return this.

Works well at first when it’s new. Cloudy days don’t count on it working! I used mine for about two months then it got clogged and would not work until I cleaned it. The sponge filter was all gross and I tossed it!

Works great! Easy set up. I originally bought this to put in a bird bath. Ended up using it to make a free standing fountain feature. I might get another one
