Solar Fountain, Floating Solar Powered Water Fountain Pump for Bird Bath, Garden, Pond, Pool, Outdoor Solar Founatin (2.5W)

UPDATED: After 1 year of owning this fountain it has died. I live in Southern California and because it is so sunny this little fountain runs ALOT. I am satisfied and have already ordered another one. I feel that for the minimal price 1 year of solid use is pretty good. I use it in a bird bath and they love it! I used 3m dual lock to stick this fountain dead center in my bird bath and it's a nice addition. It comes with several tips for different water patterns. I ended up just using the smallest tip with the single spray. The smaller tip helps keep the water in the bowl and it also doesn't scare the birds. They flop around in the water on hot days. There's no battery. If the sun is out it will run. If the sun is not out it is off. I've now had it for 6 months with no problems.

Would never turn on. Mine was defective. Had to return. Easy to assemble.

I think this is my 3rd purchase over the years and it works just as described. A welcome addition to any bird bath and patio

They only let me upload one video which is unfair for this product but not much I can do. I have a video in full sun and its works perfectly but I felt it was important to show how it looks in low light. As you can see it spurts but it does work! It has brought a noticeable increase in birds to my yard even when its spurting in the later afternoon sun. My only complaint is the stabilizer bars (there's 4) routinely somehow come off, usually just one. No big deal in my shallow bird bath and I have idea how they come off but I usually find them on the ground somewhere. They are simple to put back on though. I'd recommend this product

Received on May 8 and it immediately started working as soon as I put it in my birdbath. I’ve had my birdbath for two years and have never seen a single bird use it. Finally after adding this fountain the birds have noticed and take advantage of the water. I’m only giving 3 stars because I love this little fountain but unfortunately after only 7 weeks it has stopped working altogether. I took it apart to clean the filter and also cleaned off the top solar panel, but apparently it’s done. The return window expired two weeks ago but this fountain isn’t very expensive so I will order another one and do a follow up review in a month or two. My opinion is it should work for at least a whole summer, not 48 days.

I love this solar fountain. It works perfectly as soon as it is exposed to sunlight. If you have it in a lower container or pond, you might find yourself pulling it out and rinsing grass clippings or leaf bits from the removable sponge and inlet areas more than you would if it sat higher. Birds love it. It does cause the water to evaporate more quickly if you are in a hot area, but I consider it a minor issue.

First, when I received this, it was missing the instructions, missing the piece that keeps it centered, and only came with 2 nozzles. It's pretty straight forward. You find a bright sunny location and submerge it in water and it starts working. That was awesome! I don't know why I didn't get one sooner. However, it was pretty frustrating trying to figure out how to keep it centered so that the the water didn't splash out everywhere. I had to refill it with water atleast twice a day. And because I've had other submersible pumps, I know how quickly they can get clogged. I couldn't figure out how to get the motor open to clean it out, because no instructions, and I didn't want to break it. But I did the best I could making sure it was cleaned out, daily or every other day. This pump totally stopped functioning within 2 weeks! I made sure the panel was clean so that it could receive full sun. There was nothing, that I could see blocking the motor. This was during a busy time for me and I missed the return window. I contacted the manufacturer through Amazon, with no response from them. So now I've wasted money on a pump that was probably a return, and doesn't work. Great concept. Just don't buy this one!

Had for 3 days and it quit working.

Not as impressed as I thought I might be. They only operate with absolute direct sunlight.

Gets clogged quickly and it doesn't last over a couple of months. But great for aerating a small pond like a water barrel.

Loved it while it worked. Lasted 1 month, the stopped working. Easily returned for full refund. Thinking of trying it again.

Works great

It got lots of compliments from visitors and I loved the sound of it in my garden. Despite keeping it full of water, cleaning the bowl to prevent any algae or debris buildup and it being shaded for part of each day (decreased workload), it was dead by late August after delivery in early July. Very disappointed as this is outside the return window, and I did read reviews before buying. So - hopefully this will at least benefit others who are considering a purchase.
