RIVER ROCK PILLAR FOUNTAIN

Two Plugs, So the Lights and the Water Are Separate

Almost every lit fountain wires the pump and the LEDs to one plug, which means the lights are on whenever the water is and off whenever it is not. This one has two cords. That sounds like a small thing until the evening you want the sound of water on the patio without a lit object in your eye line, or the night you want the pillar glowing quietly with the pump off.

The pillar is built from river rock stacked into a vertical column, rounded stones rather than flat slabs, with the water finding its way down through the gaps between them. Mostly cool gray, with warmer ochre stones set in at irregular points so the stack does not read as one molded shape. The seven lights sit at different heights rather than in a row.

At fifty one inches and fifty two pounds it runs roughly twice the weight of typical resin at this height, which is what lets it stand on a patio or a lawn without anchoring. A lighter piece this tall needs pinning or a weighted base. This one just stands there.

What You Get With This River Rock Fountain

  1. 01

    Two independent plugs.

    Water without lights, lights without water, or both together. Nearly everything else in this category gives you one switch for the pair.

  2. 02

    Fifty two pounds at fifty one inches.

    Roughly double the weight of typical resin at this height, so it stays put on a patio or a lawn with no anchoring and no weighted base.

  3. 03

    Seven lights at seven heights.

    Set at irregular points up the column rather than in a row, so after dark the lit water reads as scattered highlights instead of a strip of lighting.

  4. 04

    Rounded river rock, not flat slabs.

    The water threads down through the gaps between stones rather than dropping off ledges, which gives a softer and more continuous sound than a stepped waterfall does.

Where to put it

Fifty one inches is tall enough to work on its own rather than tucked beside planting, so a poolside fountain spot, the corner of a deck or the end of a patio all suit it. A dark wall or fence behind it makes the lit water read better after dark. It stands on its own weight, so what you need is level ground and two outlets or one outlet with a two socket adapter, not a pad and not anchors.

Keeping This River Rock Fountain in Good Order

River Rock Fountain upkeep, in three lines

  • Every few days Top up. The water must always cover the pump.
  • Every 2 to 3 weeks Empty, rinse, wipe the pump screen, refill.
  • Before the first frost Drain it completely and bring the pump indoors.
Looking after the finish

Top the basin up as water evaporates, because a low basin is what makes a pump run loud. Run a soft brush through the stone gaps every few weeks to...

  • 3 years Warranty against manufacturing defects

Questions About This River Rock Fountain

Why does it have two plugs
So the pump and the lights work independently. Run the water in the afternoon with the lights off, or light the pillar in the evening with the pump off so it is quiet. One outlet with a two socket adapter handles both.
Does it need to be anchored
No. At fifty two pounds it is roughly twice the weight of typical resin at this height, so it stands on its own on level ground, and filled with water it is heavier still. A lighter piece at fifty one inches usually needs pinning or a weighted base.
How is it different from your forty inch rock fountain
That one is flat slabs with the water stepping off six ledges, and one plug runs the pump and lights together. This one is rounded river rock with the water threading down through the gaps, eleven inches taller, six pounds heavier, and the lights switch separately.
What happens in winter
Drain the basin and the stone channels before the first hard frost and store the pump dry indoors. Trapped water freezing inside is what damages an outdoor fountain. At fifty two pounds this is a two person lift into a garage, or leave it in place drained and covered.

Ships free from California or New Jersey, and it is covered for three years.

Best housewarming gift

I bought this for my son's new house and he is obsessed. The river rock look is very rugged and unique.

Box was badly damaged

2 stars. The cardboard box was torn and crushed on one side. The resin survived, but they need better packaging for heavy items.

LEDs died quickly

2 stars. The waterfall works perfectly, but 3 of the LED lights burned out after just a month of evening use.

Great for meditation

The rushing water sound is very consistent and calming. I use it as the focal point for my morning yoga on the deck.

Splashes a bit much

4 stars. The cascading pillar design is stunning, but the water splashes out a bit at the bottom basin. I had to move it away from my sliding glass door.

Needs leveling on grass

4 stars. Don't put it straight on dirt. I had to lay down some patio pavers to keep it from leaning forward.

Pump failed quickly

1 star. The fountain is nice but the water pump completely died after 2 months. Now I just have a dry rock sitting in my yard.

A replacement pump has been shipped! We stand by our warranty.

Arrived with a cracked base

1 star. The bottom corner was crushed during shipping. Waiting on customer service to send a replacement.

We shipped a replacement unit immediately! Sincere apologies for the freight damage.

FedEx left it at the curb

1 star. The fountain is fine, but the driver left a 50+ lb box at the end of my driveway in the rain. Horrible delivery experience.

We apologize for the delivery experience! We are reviewing our shipping partners.

Collects leaves easily

3 stars. The rugged rock ledges look great, but they catch falling leaves constantly. I have to pick debris out of it every few days.

Perfect size for our patio

It's tall but the footprint is small, so it fits perfectly between our two lounge chairs.

Excellent customer support

I had a question about the pump maintenance and they answered my email in 10 minutes. Great company.

Short power cords

4 stars. The fountain is tall, but the power cords are quite short. You will definitely need an outdoor extension cord.

Messy foam peanuts

3 stars. The fountain is lovely, but the packing foam blew all over my yard during unboxing.

Fast delivery

Arrived right on time and in perfect condition. It's heavy, so have a dolly ready to move the box.

Top heavy around kids

2 stars. Because it's 51 inches tall but only 18 inches wide at the base, I worry about my kids knocking it over when they play near it.

No fading in the sun

We live in a sunny climate and the rock color has held its earthy tones beautifully.

Heavy to move around

4 stars. Just be careful! 52 lbs is heavy for a bulky item. You should probably have a friend help you set it in place.

Wish the lights were warm white

3 stars. The LEDs are a very cool, bright white. It looks a bit stark at night. I wish they were a softer, warmer yellow color.

Slightly darker than photos

4 stars. The stone color is a bit more charcoal gray than the lighter brown shown in the pictures. Still very nice though.

Creates a beautiful focal point

This completely changed the vibe of our backyard. It looks incredibly majestic and sounds great.

Beautiful white LEDs

5 stars. The 7 LED lights make the water sparkle brilliantly at night. It is a stunning focal point when we have friends over for evening drinks.

Hard to clean the bottom reservoir

4 stars. The bottom basin holds a lot of water, but reaching in to scrub out algae through the small opening is a bit cramped.

Perfect vertical space saver

5 stars. I love that it is 51 inches tall but the footprint is only 18 inches wide. It fits perfectly in the corner of my small patio without eating up space.

Water spills over the side

2 stars. After a few weeks, some algae built up on one of the ledges and caused the water to spill out onto the patio. Requires constant monitoring.

I like the independent plugs

Being able to unplug the lights during the day while keeping the water running saves energy. Great feature!

Wilderness in the city

It brings a touch of nature to our urban patio. The cascading flow is visually perfect.

Evaporates quickly

3 stars. The water runs down the entire 51-inch face, meaning the evaporation rate is high. I have to top it off with a hose every two days.

Relaxing acoustic layers

The water hitting the rock face creates a very deep, rich, continuous sound. Highly therapeutic.

Sturdy and heavy duty

We have dogs that run around the yard, and this 50 lb pillar is heavy enough that they don't knock it over.

Love the thick resin material

It feels substantial. I've bought cheap resin fountains before and they feel hollow. This one is the real deal.

Highly recommended

If you want a tall, natural-looking water feature, this is it. It has completely upgraded our garden.
