This arrived well packaged and it was very easy to set up. The directions are clear (you can even scan a code and follow virtual instructions) and I had this fountain set up within about 5 minutes. I let it charge for 2 full days and I plug it in when I want the water to flow! It has been wonderful and very relaxing to listen to. It’s light enough that I can move it around, as desired, but it’s also very sturdy. The LED lights at night are a nice touch.
