5 out of 5 stars Lovely Even When It Isnt Working   September 21, 2008
On the positive side: (1) This birdbath is quite lovely to look at and very relaxing to listen to. (2) The birds seem to enjoy it as much as I do. I never saw birds before and now doves and smaller birds have daily pool parties out there. (3) It was incredibly easy to put together. (4) I enjoy it so much that I bought a second one for my daughter.

On the negative side: (1) It's so sensitive to the sun that it doesnt work unless the sun is shining directly on the solar panel. That means it doesnt work in the early morning or late afternoon. It stops working if a cloud passes in front of the sun or if someone walks up to look at it and casts a shadow on it. It's so lovely that I dont mind its not working most of the time, though.

The negative is not enough to rate this birdbath any less than a 5, however, and I'd highly recommend this product to anyone. Be sure to buy it on Amazon.com because it's up to $50 cheaper here than anywhere else.



1 out of 5 stars no warranty   August 15, 2008
I loved this fountain until the pump stopped working after about a month. Amazon will not honor anything after 30 days. Was directed to contact manufacturer, but this is not looking promising. I think Amazon should stand behind the products they sell instead of washing their hands of you in 30 days. I now have a very expensive birdbath.


5 out of 5 stars Very Pleased   August 8, 2008
I am really pleased with this fountain. I lease the home I am in, and the owner did not want to remove an ugly tree stump in the backyard. I placed this fountain on the stump and planted flowers around the base, and
it looks wonderful! The fountain arrives in three pieces and took less than five minutes to assemble. The pump started immediately and since I placed it where it receives direct sunlight, it runs most of the day when it is sunny. I think it looks even better than the picture. The only point I would make is that the directions tell you to use distilled water.
I did this the first time I filled, but with evaporation this would not be practical to do all the time. Our water quality is good, so I hope that this will not be a problem long term. For the price, this is really a good purchase.



5 out of 5 stars Kensington Solar Fountain   July 24, 2008
This product is wonderful, exactly as advertised. It was simple to put together, works great and looks beautiful. Be aware, it ONLY works when
the sun is available. If a cloud temporarily covers the sun, the fountain will stop working until the cloud passes.



5 out of 5 stars "sun"sational fountain   July 18, 2008

A wonderful addition to any patio, deck or garden. A little bit of Rome in your own backyard. So throw your "3 coins in the fountain" and watch the birdies come. Works like magic in the sunlight...but does take a pause as a cloud passes. It's well built and very soothing. You will need to hose out the little pump every couple of weeks though as it does get gunked up...but it's no big deal. Well worth the price. You will love it...and it's from Amazon...what more could you want? So stop reading already! Go order one...the price is right, too!
