This fountain is sold as interior or exterior, however, the directions included with it contradict that and say it is 'for indoor use only' .  Wayfair took care of this issue and has warranted the fountain for a year and it is my opinion that, despite the instructions, this fountain will survive outdoors if care is taken.  The pump and wiring certainly is waterproof and provided the metal part is not in direct soil contact it should survive years of use.  Ours will be brought indoors for the winter.  Overall happy with the purchase and Wayfair's response but buyers should be aware of manufacturer's instructions
After one year it is faded and spays water everywhere.  Have to refill 2x a day due to spray
