Review on Mademax Solar Bird Bath Fountain Pump - 4 Nozzle Free Standing Floating Solar Water Fountain For Garden, Pond, Pool & Outdoor by Pius Aponte

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Too big for small bird baths

This is a nice feature for large flat-bottomed bird baths or small pond features. The fountain sprays are really cool looking, and the various spray nozzles provide some nice interest. The problem is the unit is big, and will not look good in a small decorative bath bath. The bottom is not flat, but has a protrusion that houses the pump suction, so it is designed and intended to float. This idea is okay, but many baths aren't that deep or have a center post or side obstruction that the pump housing will hit on and not allow it to stay centered in the bath, or as water evaporates or is lost, it will tilt over and spray water out of bath onto the ground till it is empty. If you have a small pond or water feature, or a birdbath that is 3" or more deep with a flat bottom and no center or side obstructions this will work well. One issue with the fountain sprays though, is if the unit tilts, or there is a breeze when in use, the spray will overshot the sides of the birdbath and onto the ground, quickly emptying the water and it will no longer work. It does have various fountain nozzles that don't spray as high.

Pros
  • KEEPING THE PUMP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BIRD BATH: Our company has designed a retainer to avoid the random movement of the solar fountain pump. It prevents the solar powered water fountain from spraying water outside the bath and empties water quickly. No more wasting time on filling water.
Cons
  • The fountain may not be able to withstand strong winds or weather conditions
