UPDATE: I have placed it in my garden now and wanted to give an update. It is very beautiful and the water flows well. It has a nice sound and I know the birds are going to love it.  The hardest part was leveling the ground before set up. Well worth the effort. OLDER: I unpacked it as soon as I received it and tested the pump. It is too early to place in the garden so it is sitting in my living room for now. It is very beautiful and sturdy. It has a beautiful, classic look and the height is just what I needed. I currently have a smaller waterfall type fountain in my front garden and bought this one because it is more of a focal point, plus it will be easier and safer for birds to use. Shipping was fast and it was well packed.
