Works Well
I've been using this solar powered pump all summer and it's still going strong like a little power house. I bought a decorate clay pot and put river rocks around the pump inside the pump. Sometimes the pump is a little strong and turns out all of the water. I bought this for the relaxing sound of running water on my porch. This has been working like a charm everyday. It's been sunny constantly and the solar battery gets a ton of sun-sometimes too much.For the price, this is a nice little pump. I had a circular solar pump last year, and I find I like this one much better. You can position the solar light anywhere that gets steady sun-there is a cord that you need to keep out of the way so no one trips on it. I have the cord under the table where my pot sits. I've enjoyed this for several months with no defects or problems. I will take it in the fall and put it out next summer-I think this will last for a few seasons at least. So far no problems at all and it produces a nice flow of water. The price is really good on this pump too. I am happy with this product and have no complaints.

Solar water pump to convert a garden fountain.
This tool is very versatile, my need was to solarize an old ceramic Garden Fountain â˛. Why pay for electric grid power when u can make your own. The set up was simple. I purchased 3 inch of clear vinyl tube 3/8 Dia and 2/8 tubing 3 inch two hose clamps. I bought a small tube of LIQUID NAILS silicone adhesive. I clamped the hose to output pipe of the pump housing and fed the 2/8 tube into the 3/8 tube that was in the fountain Ⲡsince it was manufactured. See You Tube video. When the sun shines it produces a relaxing effects. The entire project cost me 16.00 USD it worked great for one month 240 hours now it does not work is there a warranty it said 1000 hours not 240?

For Almost a Year: - So Far, a Good Little Pump
I bought this pump for a small pond. It has performed well for the past three months. The pump even works nicely on overcast days, a pleasant surprise to me. It stopped working once, so I watched a couple of YouTube videos on how to fix solar pumps. Once I rinsed out the pond gunk, disconnected it from the panel and reconnected it, the pump started working again, good as new. It does not produce a high volume of spray, but on sunny days, I get a thin column up to two feet tall. The birds in my garden love it, and I often see them flying through the spray. So far, a really great investment for a low price.UPDATE: I forgot to bring the pump inside last fall, and it spent the entire winter in the garden. I found it while doing my spring yard cleanup. Wiped it off, reconnected it to my pond, and it began working immediately. For the price, it's a little gem!

Worked Okay (After Modifications) Until it Died After 3 Months
It shoots water straight in the air, so the water falls back on itself, and squirts far too high for my purpose. I widened the holes at an angle with a safety pin, so the streams spread out more evenly and not as high. As mentioned in other reviews, it only works in bright, direct sunlight. Any shadows, cloudiness or even heavy haze will make it sputter or stop. After my modification to the spray head I was fairly satisfied, though, until it stopped working completely after 3 months of light use, and without ever being run dry. I don't know if it's the pump or the solar panel. Since it's now beyond the return window, I'd call this a complete fail and would recommend avoiding this product.

Update to 5 stars!
I loved this little solar pump for the 2 or 3 days it worked. I set it up and it started working right away. Made me ridiculously happy to see it and hear it working and not have to plug anything in. But 3 days later it was dead so I cant say it was worth the money. I may try to fix it with a new solar panel but I can't send it back because of course I threw out the packaging. Oh well.Update to 5 stars! Don't know why it stopped working - maybe the panel got dirty. I decided to try it again before I threw it out and it worked like a charm! It's been over a year and it's worked even when the birdbath had been dry for days (no-one in the house knew what the humming noise was so no-one filled the birdbath or turned the panel over.) It shoots the water up so far it falls outside the birdbath! I love it. I might buy another for the backyard.

Nice fountain but needs a LOT of sunlight
This is a small fountain that is powered by a small solar panel. It only works when the sun is shining directly on the solar panel. A shadow or a passing cloud will cause the fountain to stop working. The solar panel does not charge a battery, like with a solar light, so it will only work when sunlight is hitting the solar panel. The panel has a 9 foot wire which allows you to position it away from the fountain.It works nicely with a strong 12-18 inch fountain of water, with full sun on the solar panel. With less sun, the fountain is weaker and just spurts a bit..(I have this in a shallow bird bath with a diameter of about 14 inches and about 3 " deep.) Birds are very attracted to it and like to play under the spray. The pump is rather small - it will pit in the palm of your hand. It comes with 3 different spray heads that sort of snap on and two extenders which allow you to raise the head above the water. It has a suction cup on the bottom that holds it in place. The fountain has a removable "screen) that allows it to be cleaned out - little leaves and such get sucked into it and clog it up from time to time, but the screen pulls off and is easy to clean.It's a very light duty fountain. Not awful if used in direct sunlight.This would work best in an area that gets direct sunlight most of the day.
