I love this little fountain! It's been going in our house 24/7 for over 2 months, and has worked fine.
We keep it on the floor of our dining room, where the lovely water sound can be heard throughout the first floor of our house. The sound of the running water is very pleasant and relaxing. The water flow is good, and unlike some other fountains the water doesn't get "stuck" on a level but flows continuously through. The illumination is subtle and nice, brighter then a night light mostly because of the water reflections that play across the walls.
The only down side I've found is that it isn't a 360 degree view fountain - the back isn't as attractive as the front, so you will want to keep the back against a wall. For the price, this wasn't a big deal to me.
Overall, it's a great fountain for the money.
Note: when you first get the fountain, it's important follow the instructions to wash both the fountain and the stones well before use. Homedics says most noise problems people report are caused by dust and grime from skipping this step are caused by people who do not do this. Once a week, take 5 minutes to give it a good rinse in the kitchen sink and refill it with clean water, and it will last you a long time.
A prior reviewer writes: "you can't adjust the amount of water flow like many fountains can." That's not true. Page 7 of the instructions shows you how to adjust the water flow, and even has a diagram of how to set the flow control lever (figure 9). So YES, you can adjust the pump's water flow.

I received this as a Christmas gift, and so far it's been a pleasant diversion. It has one best view (as the back is unfinished) so it must be placed against a wall. It works best when full of clean water; the pump must be completely immersed, or an unwelcome grinding noise will result. Enclosed documents also explain that dust or heavy water can lead to increased noise.
I found an ideal place for mine, on a sideboy in a hallway, where the sound of the running water can be heard from two rooms, and where the light can be kept low so the silvery spotlights can sparkle in the running water. It's not made of stone (though polished stones are included for meditative and decorative purposes), but the black plastic is unobtrusive, and it's quite soothing. What more do you expect for $20 from the drugstore?

One of the reasons I got this fountain was its small size as described by other reviewers here. I don't have much space in my office and needed something that takes up a nice little corner, yet makes enough gurgling sound to drown out the sound of modern technology like the computer, multiple monitors, and the fan.
Some people here had said that the motor was loud and I was dismayed when I first turned it on. The motor was louder than the gurgling sound. I was so tempted to pack it all into the box and send it back. But someone here said to wash the unit thoroughly to remove all grime. So I took the whole thing to the sink and thoroughly washed the pump, the container, the pebbles, and then let the fountain run for about 5 minutes. Gradually the motor sound became a pleasant hum. But there was still no gurgling sound.
I read somewhere else that you need to arrange the pebbles so that water cascading will make more noise. So I spent a good 10 minutes moving the stones around. Come to think of it, it was quite therapeutic, really. Now I have another way to waste time at the office instead of working! But once the pebbles were arranged in a certain way, I could barely hear the motor humming, just the soothing gurgling running fountain. Thumbs up!

By d43boy
I have had this fountain for a year now, so I feel I can write an honest, and well thought-out review. This is a pretty little fountain, very oriental looking and sleek and stylish. It is illuminated, however the lights are not clear, they have an orange glow to them, which takes away from the modern, sleek look of the fountain and makes it look a little cheap. It is small, so that can be good or bad. It's nice for a small tabletop or counter. I kept this fountain running 24/7 look most would want to do. After about 6 months, the motor started making a bad sound, like it was really working hard to run. This is not because I didn't clean it. I cleaned it on a regular basis and even bought some fountain purifying liquid that is safe for fountain motors to help with scum or mold or dirty water. This seemed to help and I definitely think it prolonged the life of the fountain. However, after several months of use, the noise started. Another point; you must keep it refilled. The water evaporates out of the fountain quite easily. I refilled at least every few days, to keep the water level up.
It doesn't make a very loud 'flowing water' sound, so don't expect to hear it all through the house. Only in the room it's in, and only faintly can you hear the water. It's more like a 'trickle'. Unfortunately, earlier this month, I had to stop using the fountain. It became too loud, two of the lights went out, and it just became too much of a hassle. It wears out pretty easily. I know friends who have had more expensive, premium tabletop fountains that have lasted for years, even after constant use. This does not hold up. However, for the price, it's pretty, attractive and sleek. Just buy it knowing that it's not going to last long-term. More like a 'disposable' fountain. Would I still tell people to buy it?...

High maintenance.
If you're as lazy as I am, you might not like to unplug it once a week to clean it & refill the water level. Other than that, it's a wonderful decoration and works very well. Read more
