Smart Solar/Smart Solar 22300R01 Solar Powered Ceramic Frog Water Feature. Green Glazed Ceramic Customer Review


I was looking for a small fountain to put in my "relaxation garden" outside, but I didn't really want to have to run electricity out there. I saw this fountain and thought it would be the perfect solution.

The fountain arrived with no broken pieces and was easy to assemble. I set it up in my garden and it worked great... until the sun went behind a cloud. The description does not make it clear that this does not have any kind of reserve battery power; it is not like a solar powered light that stores the solar energy all day in a battery pack so that it can run at night. This fountain only works when the sun is directly shining on the solar panel. So this means that the fountain will not run if it is cloudy or after the sun sets, which is too bad because the evening is one my favorite times to be outside. I wish it at least had enough of a storage capacity to run for a few minutes without the sun, such as if the sun were to briefly go behind a cloud. Also, it says it includes an AC adapter for indoor use, but I did not receive one of those. I will be contacting the company about that.

It seems like it may be a little overpriced, but then again, there aren't many things like this, so maybe the company has a corner on the market.

All in all, this is a nice little fountain when the sun is shining, so I gave it 4 stars because of that. However, be prepared for its limitations.
