I just installed this pond and, at least so far, it works great. You dig a big hole (thats the hard part), put the pond in, level it, fill it with water and then put in the pump. Now you have a pond with a fountain. The only reason it isnt 5 star is that I dont yet know how long the submersible pump lasts and what do you do if it burns out. Its been in for a month running continuously with no problems so far. A minor quibble is that the people who are writing the instructions and descriptions are pretty good at conversational English, but they would do better to hire a professional native English-speaking instruction-writer. Assembling the fountain, for example, is incredibly simple - you just connect 4 pieces of plastic and there is really only 1 way they go together, but still, it would help to at least have pictures of how to do it and how to adjust the flow of the fountain. The top two pieces form a nozzle that can be pushed together to control the shape of the water coming out of the fountain, which combined with the flow-rate valve at the bottom of the stem together control the amount and shape of the water coming out of the fountain. Im very happy with it so far.
