Bamboo Water Fountain Medium 12 Inch Three Arm Style without Pump, Indoor or Outdoor Zen Garden Decor Fountain, Natural, Split Resistant Bamboo, Combine with Any Container to Create Your Own Fountaion

Reçu la fontaine rapidement, elle est très belle et fonctionne bien avec la pompe que j’avais déjà, ils ont ajouté un petit nénuphar décoratif. Excellent service. Je la recommande.

I've been looking at bamboo fountains off and on for years, especially the more popular ones you can find here on Amazon. The problem with those is that they are natural/unsealed and do not come with a UL-listed pump. I contacted them and they could "upgrade" to a UL-listed pump for like $8 -- making those fountains close to $50, and I would still have to get some spar urethane and seal it myself to prevent mildew and cracking. For me, that was more involved and priced a little high for one part of a larger fountain project.I ran across this and was intrigued. There weren't very many reviews, but the pictures were helpful. I took a chance on spending $20 for this and I am glad I did. There was some gunk on it, maybe uncured shellac or whatever this thing is thoroughly sealed with, but it came off easily. On the underside was a tiny spot that was missing shellac, but it sits on the bowl so I'm not concerned. Did it stink when I opened it? Yes, but that's how you know it's working lol! It did take several days to fully off-gas, but the smell did go away.Now, the spout itself is NOT permanently attached as I'd read in some of the reviews. I was actually glad this was the case. I got a UL-listed 60gph pump here for like $9 and by the time I got that in place and snaked the tubing to it, the spout had spun around a few times. Glad I didn't have to fight it during all this, I got it right where I wanted then used zip ties to hold it in place (the natural/white ties are barely noticeable). This ended up being absolutely perfect for my little "fount of self-isolation" setup.Of all the random parts I used to create my years-in-the-making fountain, this little bamboo guy and the inexpensive pump were by far the easiest to deal with -- and what held me back from putting this together for so long! I recommend it highly, especially if you're on the fence between this and the more expensive ones. Find a UL-listed pump with the 8mm/one-third inch nozzle, let this off-gas for a few days, and hold the spout in place with some zip ties once you get it exactly where you want it. BAM! You just saved a good $20.

This item is described in the main description as having a pump ?. IT DOES NOT AND IS MISLEADING

I had expected not to receive a pump from previous reviews but had one already which easily attached and it worked well. My only concern is the very strong chemical smell that forced me to leave the bamboo outside for days.

I revamped a water fountain that I have using this spout, and it looks wonderful! Water is no longer splashing everywhere, and the sound is soothing. It was easy to install, works great, and I've even gotten compliments on how nice it looks in our entry.
