Hovico Solar Fountain - Panel Water Pump for Bird Bath Solar Panel Kit Outdoor Fountain for Outdoor Small Pond, Patio Garden and Fish Tank

I planted a water lily in a large pot and wanted some circulation to help keep the water fresher longer. The moment the little solar panel hit the light, it started running. I initially used one of the cap accessories but ended up taking it off because the water was deep and the air flow was perfect without the accessories. Super easy to use, compact, and the cord length enables you to move the panel around to make the best use of the sunlight. Such a great price for what you get!

Good product. Had to do some exterior work to get the angle for the proper sunshine but that was caused by my backyard. As soon as the sun hits it, it starts to pump. Now if the birds would stop being such slobs...

Works to keep my birdbath from going stagnant. Don't expect a fountain but keeps the water moving. Easy to set up. The cord is nice and long to enable placement of the solar panel in the sunniest location.

Lots of issues. Firstly, the solar panel doesn't have a peg to place in ground. It's just a piece of plastic. Not very good. Panel sits atop a hedge on full sunlight and the water trikles out. Second up is the design, it's really small. Which is fine, that's the whole point of a fountain is to move water. It doesn't do a good job of this. First day worked, second day it's down to nothing but a thin trickle. I doubt this lasts a week. The pros: good length of cable The cons: solar panel small, without a way to support it. Solar panel is weak, in fun sun can't manage to produce much water spray. Pump motor seems to work (makes noise) but the water spray only lasted one day. It's a waste of time and money. Save your money for something else, this isn't it.

Works great. The little solar panel keeps it chugging along. Just put it in the bird bath/ drinking station cover the cord with a small rock and off she goes. Inexpensive, but so far works great.

This little solar powered fountain works great for the money. If you’re looking for a simple and cheap fountain the different nozzles included and the pressure of the fountain will scratch that itch. - Here’s what you need to know - the pressure is dependent on how much sun the solar panel gets. - Shady? Don’t plan on your fountain working. Sunny? Your fountain will be the star of the garden. - It would be nice if there was a stored battery and an on / off switch to control when the pump ran or for when the clouds came by so the pump would continue to run. - As you will see in the video the pump is working nice, but if I step in front of the solar panel the pump stops working. If your fountain runs out of water the pump will continue to run. A shut off float would be nice, but is probably an added cost to produce. - For the money this is a good value pump. Overall I would recommend and buy again.

How about three of these and I use them outside in my little Water gardens and they were great however they do not hold a charge and if the sun is not shining or a shade passes over they stopped working but as long as the sun is shining on it. It works beautifully.

This works exactly as described. It does need direct sunlight but it’s a strong little pump

Unfortunately not very satisfied with this fountain pump. It keeps cutting off, even in full sunlight. The water pressure is low—just a weak trickle that’s barely visible. I’d recommend a stronger pump for better performance.

Perfect for my bird bath!

Compré esta bomba para una pequeña fuente y funciona de maravilla, el cable que une la bomba con el panel solar es bastante largo (poco más de 2 metros), alcanzó perfecto para colocar el panel sobre el techo y que los rayos del sol le estén dando casi todo el día, la relación calidad precio es buena, en el pasado compré otra bomba, pero nada que ver con ésta en cuanto a la calidad de los materiales, esperemos que dure mucho, ya les estaré actualizando. Por lo demás el paquete llegó en buen estado. Ojalá les sirva la información a los consumidores. Hola de nuevo, hoy es 26 de mayo del 2025 y quise actualizar la reseña a este producto, la bomba sigue funcionando, el sonido del agua cayendo por los cuencos hace que las aves vengan a beber agua (también algunos insectos), lo cual es genial porque hemos estado teniendo días verdaderamente soleados, volveré por aquí en unos meses más para volver a actualizar.

Works wonderfully in my birdbath! I love the fact that it can be unplugged so I could hide the powercord behind my fencing.

Just what I needed
