Sundance Mosaic Cascade Solar 20.5" Outdoor 5-Tier Terra Cotta Ceramic Bowls Bird Bath Fountain with Solar Powered Low Voltage Water Pump

Update: after a few months, the PAINT is wearing off, one pot broke after being knocked off by a bird. This is a nice piece that is ABSOLUTELY NOT WORTH THE PRICE.Looks : home run!Pump: one outPanel: two outsNo battery: three outs.Clips: foul ball.So that about sums it up. The panel will ONLY fire the pump in the blazing sun. As soon as a single cloud comes by, pump stops. There's no battery at all, so there's no on-off switch or something to charge for a day. This should run like a reverse solar flagpole light: battery runs pump, solar charges battery, and you'd at least get a little more time out of it or have the option to shut it off one full day so it'll run another full day. A timer would be helpful too. For $200-ish, I feel like the pump came in a candy machine. The clips are also weak and pop off when the pump comes on and water surges through the pipe. I'll fix this with black zip ties, being careful to not block water flow.On the other hand, the bowls and the fountain are beautiful and great conversation pieces. The birds are suspicious, so far, but when that fountain gets going regularly, they won't be. I will need to work harder than should be necessary to optimize this, but I think it's possible to do so.All in all, I like the piece bery much, but I wouldn't have spent this money on it and I can't recommend that you do either.

This fountain looks just like the picture, but it's got some flaws. First, it is solar powered. Most solar powered items store up the energy and work for several hours. This only works when the sun is hitting the panel. If a cloud goes by, it stops. If it's a cloudy day, no working fountain. I think I knew it wouldn't work on cloudy days but I was surprised when it stopped when a cloud went by.The other issue is a design one. When empty, the side with the tiered pots is heavier than the large bowl side, even when it's filled with water, and it kept tipping over. VERY frustrating! I finally propped up the base bowl with rocks all around it plus added rocks to it. Other than that, it's fine. I don't think I would recommend it though.

This fountain was easy to put together, but the pump doesn't stay stuck to the bottom very well. I added rocks to the bowl to make it easier for bees to drink anyway, so I used some of the rocks to anchor the pump.I bought a different solar fountain last year, and like it very well, so decided to give this one a try. As long as the solar panel is positioned well, it runs great. I'm very happy with it.

The fountain is very nice looking, and the cascade works well. I did immediately replace the solar pump with a 80 gph electric pump (for less than $10), as the solar pump is a mere trickle, and the solar panel must always be 100% facing the sun. Once I did that, it works great.

I would loved to have given this 5 stars since it is a beautiful piece. However, the large bowl has a thin crack in the bottom that slowly leaks water so I am using it as a planter instead of a bird bath. It really is very pretty.

It is very attractive, however the solar panel is very weak and ineffective. It worked ok until the sun was no longer directly over the fountain. By 4pm there was plenty of light but the water stopped flowing.

Here in Tucson, AZ that's not a problem.

We love this solar fountain. It is not large but it works just like it's supposed to and the terra cotta color and design are very pretty.
