I was looking for a solar fountain for my garden. Have still no electricity and there but wanted to hear the sound of water. After researching on the internet I came across some wells, also on this. I opted for this sculpture-like fountain, because it looks simply elegant. This makes it a little higher, I bought a matching socket at the hardware store. The delivery was very quickly, as is the building. The fountain is indeed delivered as a whole, you have only put the pump through the hole, fill water into the tank and wait for the sun to the battery has charged. Even with low solar radiation does the fountain. It runs when the sun shines all day without a break if you want. But you can also turn off or programmed at certain times. Everything is described in the manual. Conclusion for me: nice designter solar fountain, very straightforward in construction and operation, works great. So I found a great view point in my garden. I highly recommend him. Now have him for almost 4 weeks use.
