Product Description
STACKED ROCK OUTDOOR FOUNTAIN
Six Levels of Rounded Stone, Lit From Inside the Water
Rounded gray stones stacked six levels high, irregular in size and rough at the edges, the way rock piles up along a stream bank rather than the way anything gets arranged deliberately. Water leaves a spout on each level and drops to the one below, and the whole tower is under three feet, which puts it in a size class most rockery fountains skip.
The lighting is worth knowing about before you buy. The lights sit inside the falling water rather than aimed at the stone, and they read cool white rather than warm. After dark you see bright vertical lines of lit water against dark rock, closer to moonlight on a stream than to lamplight in a garden. Some people much prefer that on gray stone. If your outdoor lighting is warm, this will read cooler than everything around it.
At 32.6 inches on a 15.3 by 11.2 inch base and 28.7 pounds, it is small enough for a compact patio, a balcony, or indoors, while still having enough height to register in a garden bed. The body is resin with stone powder blended in, which gives more surface density than plain resin casting.

What Makes This Fountain Different
- Light inside the falling water, not on the rock. Most lit fountains put the source where it washes a surface, which makes the stone the subject and the water incidental. Here the light sits in the fall itself, so after dark what you actually see is four or five bright vertical lines suspended in the dark, with the rock reading as silhouette around them. It is a much stronger night effect than a lit ornament, and it is the reason this piece looks completely different at ten at night than it does at noon.
- Under three feet, which is a gap in the range. Rockery fountains tend to be either tabletop pieces or four foot statements. At 32.6 inches this one sits in between, which is the right size for a balcony, a small patio, a garden bed that is already full, or a spot indoors where a taller piece would be overbearing.
- Stone powder in the blend, which you feel. The body is resin with stone powder worked in rather than plain resin, so the surface has more density and holds texture better. At 28.7 pounds on a piece this size it does not feel hollow.
- Rounded stone rather than flat slate. Water worn boulder shapes read as a stream bed. Flat stacked slate reads as horizontal banding. Both look like stone, but they belong in different gardens, and this one suits informal planting with ferns, grasses, and gravel.
What the water sounds like
Distinct falls rather than a continuous wash. Water leaves a defined spout on each level and drops clear to the next, so you hear separate arrivals rather than a smooth run, and six of them overlap at different heights. It is a lively close range sound rather than a background one, which suits a patio or a doorway where you pass near it. It will not cover traffic. How loud it seems will still shift with the water level and the surfaces around it, which is why a fixed decibel number would tell you nothing useful about your own space.

Setup, Care, and Warranty
Setup and placement
Fill it, plug it in, done. No plumbing and nothing to bury. At 28.7 pounds one person can position it, which is worth using while you decide where it looks best.
Set it level before filling. On spouted falls an out of plumb base sends water past the level below rather than into it, which means water leaving the fountain instead of recirculating.
Water level and daily care
Keep enough water in the base to cover the pump so it never runs dry. Six clear falls put a lot of water in the air at once, so evaporation and wind drift both run higher than the size suggests. Check every few days in warm weather.
Clear debris from the spouts. A blocked spout does not just stop one fall, it pushes that water into the others and the balance across the tower shifts.
Cleaning the stone surface
Use a soft brush and water, and keep harsh liquid cleaners off the finish. In hard water areas a pale film builds around the spouts and along the wet edges, and on textured rock it is much easier to remove before it sets than after.
Winter storage
Before hard freezes, drain the reservoir and every basin completely, disconnect and store the pump indoors, and dry the piece out. Water left between stacked levels through a freeze and thaw is what causes damage. At 28.7 pounds it comes inside easily, which is the safest option.
3-year warranty
This product includes a 3-year warranty. Coverage, claim requirements, and required documents are subject to the warranty policy that applies at the time of purchase. Keep your order confirmation, and contact customer support with your order details if service is needed.
Questions Before You Choose
Is the light warm or cool?
Cool. It sits inside the falling water rather than on the stone, so at night you get bright lit water against dark rock. On gray stone that reads clean and moonlit. If the rest of your outdoor lighting is warm, expect this to look cooler than everything near it, and the lights are built in rather than replaceable.
Where does it look right?
Informal planting with ferns, grasses, and gravel, a small patio, a balcony, or a garden bed that is already established and does not need a large object added to it. At under three feet it sits within planting rather than standing over it. It works less well in a formal clipped bed, where irregular stacked rock reads as untidy.
Can it go indoors?
Yes, it is rated for both, and the size suits it. You need an outlet within reach and a surface that tolerates the occasional splash. Worth noting that the falls make distinct sounds rather than a smooth run, which is more noticeable in a quiet room than outdoors.
Is it safe around children and pets?
At 32.6 inches and 28.7 pounds on a compact base it is reasonably steady, but it is a stacked form and should not be climbed on or pushed. Set it on a hard level surface rather than soft ground, and run the cord where it will not catch a foot. The recirculating water is not intended for drinking.
