I set the fountain on top of my wine rack in the entrance hall. It will be interesting to see how often I must add water. I like the fountain! I have tried battery-operated ones, but it cost more to replace batteries than it does to buy a good plug-in, which this one seems to be!

I find it to be aesthetically beautiful, and I am using it in the center of a small in-door memorial garden. Also in the garden are plants, antique gold name plates, quartz and other fine rocks, and miniature animal statues. It perfectly suits my purpose.

I had a little difficulty setting up the pump because the ink was light for the diagram in the installation instructions and I felt that there could have been more descriptive wording. For instance, I did not realize at first that the pump was supposed be submerged in the water because some pumps are connected by tubing and sit beside the apparatus. I thought at first that the tubing was left out of the box, and I spent some time looking for it!

I guess the manufacturer saved a couple pennies by making the vinyl tube that connects the fountain to the pump ridiculously short. Too bad for you. Good luck if you want to give it a try, you'll need it because every time you try to push the pump connector into the vinyl tube it will disappear because it forces the soft vinyl up into the fountain. It's so short you will not be able to get a grip on it. Since it disappears inside the fountain it's not possible to replace it with a longer piece of tubing :(

I wanted the sound of a waterfall, but this fountain was completely silent. It's great that the pump was quiet, but even at the highest setting, there was no sound from the water. We tried a bunch of rock configurations, but to no avail.

It's an attractive fountain, but don't buy it for the relaxing sound.

I purchased this tabletop fountain to put in my meditation room. While it was easy to set up and the water flows fairly nicely, you have to put your ear right up to it to hear any "waterfall" at all. Was very disappointed. I went out and paid $20.00 more for a larger fountain that is perfect.
