Solar Lit Verdigris Bird Bath

I'm really pleased with my purchase. It is made from what feels like heavier, durable plastic and looks very elegant despite being plastic.It arrived earlier than stated (after a long wait when out of stock) and was very easy to assemble; all parts screw to each other so no tools are required - it took approx 1 min!I have not used the pegs for securing it to the ground but even on my very windy terrace it feels stable on the tiled floor.I struggled to get a sense of the size before purchase so have included a photo next to a standard sized folding dining chair. It fits really nicely next to my plants and doesn't feel too tall to risk toppling over like I now think some of the alternatives may have.The centre of gravity with water in it still seems quite low, and once the planter is filled I'm double sure it won't be going anywhere. It took about 2L of water comfortable which filled it to a depth of a about 5.5 cm. This is perfect for a bird bath and drinking station but will obviously need regular top ups and cleaning (as is required for bird health anyway) - especially in the warm weather.The planter has drainage holes in it (seen pics) but I am tempted to raise it on rubber 'pot feet' as I have done for my other pots. Although the central floor of the planter is slightly raised from the floor the outer bottom edge of the pedestal is not, so it may not drain freely after leaving the holes. Easily fixed if you choose plants that need watering regularly and free drainage though.Who knows how long it will take for the birds to find it, but it looks pretty whilst I wait anyway.My only complaint? The £10 rise in price after a period of being out of stock during lockdown! Felt like a little bit of a liberty had been taken....

Easy to assemble and looks great despite being made from plastic. Love the base which can be used as a planter.

Not very sturdy, I screwed mine down onto a paving slab. Installed one of those combined fountain and lights that are solar powered and it looked great, then the pigeons arrived and pooed in it and managed to wreck the thing. They are gangsters of the bird world and unfortunately we are not allowed to shoot them.Gave up with it and binned it. Going to find a replacement that the pigeons cannot sit or poo in.

Seems well made.Good value

Bought 2 of them plus purchased 2 small pumps turned them into small fountains looks brill .bird baths .

No instructions on how to set up the solar light and it doesn't work.As a bird bath, it's functional enough although it's lighter than I expected so not sure how well it will hold up to bad weather.

Lovely item and very easy to assemble. Looks good in my garden

Looks heavy and beautiful but is actually really light and only made from plastic. Looks like real metal even though it isn't.
