Well made fountain, no complaints. I do not have an outlet on my balcony, so the solar option works well for me. The LED light doesn't have a suction cup on the bottom and floats around. I bought a cheap aquarium ornament (the sea turtle, Crush, from Finding Nemo) to place over the cord to keep it in place, works perfectly and is super cute. The solar panel is well made, its like a 5×7 picture frame and it soaks up the sun during the day so I can run it at night. I also enjoy the timer feature and usually use it in case I forget to turn it off! Runs for about 3-4 hours with about 5-6 hours of direct sunlight (that's my set up but I have been known to unplug the solar panel from the pump and move it to the front of my home in the mornings to collect more sun). I use distilled water and a few drops of algae remover in it each week to prevent algae growth, water stays clear except for the occasional plant debris. I'm really happy with this fountain, I love the sound of running water and I'm so glad I can have it with this solar option.
