5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Modern Fountain, March 18, 2008

By 

Robin (Central New York USA) - See all my reviews

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.

3.0 out of 5 stars glittering liquid spotlight, January 2, 2008

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?
