Customer Reviews of HoMedics WFL-CAN32 EnviraScape Shimmering Towers Illuminated Relaxation Fountain

Customer Review: Cheap and serves its purpose... 'till it breaks...
Summary: 4 Stars

I am downgrading my review to 3 stars. See the bottom for the update.

Having owned my fountain for four months and run it constantly since I purchased it, I have not had any problems with it whatsoever. It is a clever design - three pillar candles that appear to be "melting," but drip water from pillar to pillar. The flickering LEDs make soothing patterns on the walls and are just bright enough to approximate a candle-like glow. The falling water sound is beautiful and not-too-loud. I keep it on the nightstand next to the bed. In the still of the night, it might seem a little loud at first, but you will get used to it relatively quickly. When I have company, they usually seem intrigued by the gentle flicker of light against the wall. I would definitely buy another.

Pros:
(1) Soothing. Sounds and looks nice.
(2) Acts as a natural humidifier.
(3) Avoids fire hazards while I sleep (unlike a real candle)!

Caveat(s):
(1) It is a bit cheap. The candles are made of plastic, as is the base and (it seems) all the parts.
(2) Occasionally, the pump can be a bit loud. Remedy: You may be able to dampen the loudness by reducing the vibration of the pump. Place a soft cloth underneath your fountain, such as a doily or a washcloth. I cut a small piece of plastic under the cloth as well, to catch any water that may splash out and ruin the varnish on the nightstand.
(3) Not enough "river rocks" included with it. I like to make mine look like it is sitting in a pile of stones all around the base, not just in the front. Remedy: purchase a cheap bag of tumbled stones and arrange them yourself.

Update: OK, my fountain broke almost six months to the day that I bought it. The pump still works, but the LEDs in all of the candles went out. Why, I haven't the faintest clue. I don't think it was meant to run 24/7 and I am a little frustrated with it, because I'm unwilling to throw it away (it works marginally, right)? But without the flickering light, the point seems a little moot, so it sits on my kitchen table, unused and unloved. Now I bought a *much* (5x) more expensive Hunter Kenroy slate table fountain and was surprised to see the same kind of pump, but a different lighting fixture; I'll be interested to see if it holds up. But as for my Homedics one... get what use out of it that you can, I just figure I paid $3.56/month (MSRP+Tax) for it and now it's fodder for the landfill. Was it worth it? I loved it while it worked but I'm not too pleased with having to throw it away in six months.
