I love the color and shape of this little fountain.  It works pretty well except the pump can't sit flat because of the shape of the bowl.  As a result, it floats free which makes it a little noisier than it should be.  I live in an apartment with a second floor balcony facing North.  I get virtually no direct sunlight so I can't use the solar panel.  However, I found a power plug that I had used for my head set and plugged it in to a outside plug.  Works great!
