SPINNING ORB FOUNTAIN

The Orb Turns, and the Water Is What Turns It

The orb is not motorized. It sits in a cup and the falling water pushes it round, so it turns at whatever speed the flow is set to and stops when you switch the pump off. That is a small mechanical idea and it is the reason people keep looking at this one, because a rotating object holds attention in a way a cascade does not.

The pump is adjustable, which on this piece means you are setting the rotation speed as well as the sound. Turn it down and the orb barely creeps. Open it up and it spins visibly.

Eight and a third inches high on a seven and nine tenths inch square, which is smaller than a side plate. The light cycles slowly through colors rather than sitting on one, so the rock and the orb change tone over a few minutes. It is rated for indoor use.

What You Get With This Spinning Orb Fountain

  1. 01

    Water drives the orb, not a motor.

    It sits in a cup and the falling water turns it, so the rotation is real movement rather than a mechanism, and there is nothing extra to fail.

  2. 02

    The flow control sets the spin speed.

    Turn the pump down and the orb creeps, open it up and it spins visibly. You are adjusting two things with one dial.

  3. 03

    Smaller than a side plate.

    Seven and nine tenths inches square, so it fits a crowded desk, a narrow shelf or a bedside table where nothing else will.

  4. 04

    Slow color cycle.

    The light moves through colors over minutes rather than sitting on one, so the rock and the orb change tone gradually instead of flashing.

Where to put it

Close, on a desk, a shelf or a bedside table, because an eight inch piece is seen at arm reach and nowhere else. Level matters more here than on almost anything else in the range, since an orb sitting in a cup will not turn evenly on a tilt and that is the whole feature. Put a coaster or a mat under it on a surface that marks. It is rated for indoor use.

Keeping This Spinning Orb Fountain in Good Order

Spinning Orb Fountain upkeep, in three lines

Looking after the finish

Top the basin up every few days, because a piece this small holds very little water and the level drops fast. Lift the orb out when you clean and r...

Questions About This Spinning Orb Fountain

Is the orb motorized
No. It sits in a cup and the falling water pushes it round, so it turns when the pump runs and stops when it does not. There is no motor and nothing extra to fail.
Can I change how fast it spins
Yes, with the pump adjustment. Turn the flow down and the orb creeps, open it up and it spins visibly. The same dial sets the sound, so the two move together.
How small is it
Eight and a third inches high on a seven and nine tenths inch square, which is smaller than a side plate. It fits a crowded desk, a narrow shelf or a bedside table.
What if the orb stops turning
Almost always something gritty caught under it. Lift the orb out, rinse it and its cup, and put it back. That and keeping the water topped up are the whole maintenance story on this piece.

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

Great product

Looks great works great. But I cannot make any of the settings make the water audible. It is just quiet. Is there a trick to it?

Good trickle sound, no pump noise

I love this little waterfall! I love the soothing sound of water trickling and this item gives me that without any pump noise whatsoever. The spinning glass orb on top is visually interesting and I’ve received many compliments on my little water feature. One word of warning: moving water causes faster evaporation, especially in fall and winter when the air is dryer. That would be true of ANY of these small indoor waterfalls, so be prepared to add water to it every day. I add about half a cup of water every morning to keep it full, which is needed to prevent the pump burning out for lack of water. There are some pumps that will shut off automatically if there isn’t enough water, but the one that comes with this item is not one of those, so you have to keep it full. If I’m going to be away from home overnight, I always unplug it to avoid damaging the pump.

Bigger Than Expected, It's Quiet

I know it says 15.7" but I sort of expected they were 'fudging' that a bit. They're not. This thing's literally almost a foot and a half tall.Functionality: So far, after a week, it still works. The water still flows well, no leaks, good job.Sound: The waterfall sound is barely audible. If you're buying it for the sound, you won't really hear it. I can, at times, hear the motor over the sound of the waterfall. I had to put a towel under mine, not to absorb the water, but to soften the vibration and dampen the motor-noise. Its not terrible but, I didn't buy this to hear a motor, I bought it to hear water. I'm not dinging it a point for that (maybe I should), but it is noteworthy.Visuals: This thing looks really, really nice. It doesn't look 'terribly' cheap and actually has some heft to it. The one thing I don't like is, it has three lights and I am unsure that this will run without them. You need to attach them, the connection is inside the fountain, and they're water-tight connections. I'm not exactly sure what happens if they're not connected, as they need to be screwed in to be water-tight. So, does leaving them unplugged expose the connections to water and cause an issue? I dunno, I don't want to find out, but it means I am forced to have the lights on it, turned on. If this disturbs your sleep, you may want to bear that in mind. This item 'should' have an external on-off switch for the light but it doesn't. Dinging it a point.Overall, not a bad item. Waterfalls & Fountains on Amazon all have pretty bad reviews, this is probably the best of the bunch. Not sure that's saying much. If you can keep the motor quiet, and don't mind lights on it, it's nice, and large enough to feel worth the cost. Adding a point because they made it with heft, it holds a gallon of water and measures to the advertised height.So, 4/5 stars. Worth the money, if the minor issues I listed don't bother you. But better with a sale.
