Only 3 stars because it arrives incompleteby Jen S (3 out of 5 stars)

This is a great waterfall feature. High quality plastic, and it creates a nice clean waterfall spill. However, I am giving it 3 stars because it comes incomplete. The ad says it fits 3/4 or 1" hose. And the picture CLEARLY shows a barb-type fitting on the backside of the unit. However, the actual unit arrives with just a hole in it. Which requires a separate trip to the Big Box store to get the necessary parts. For those of you looking to buy the necessary parts prior to this unit arrives, I had luck with a 3/4" bulkhead fitting with a 3/4 inch male threaded-to-1" barb adapter. I had to use a dremel rotary sander to enlarge the hole just a little to allow the bulkhead fitting to fit. Annoyingly there are two thin channels on the inside, adjacent to the holes, which makes getting a flush seal impossible. I seemed to solve this by placing the flexible gasket of the separately purchased bulkhead fitting on the outside of the unit, and the hard washer on the inside. So far no leaks. But 3 stars because this company misrepresents what comes with the unit, AND makes it difficult to use a standard bulkhead fitting. Other than that, it is a great waterfall feature.
Works for me.

Wasn't going for anything fancy, but It's perfect and works beautifully with bamboo shoots.
Quiet waterfalls!

I've never used a waterfall spillway before and had been looking for a relatively inexpensive one to experiment with for my indoor pond. I'm very happy with the product! Easy to install and looks beautiful. I have mine positioned so the water pours directly down into the pond instead of running down a rock stair, and I'm amazed at how quietly the water pours rather than all the noisy splashing that just having a hose pouring out does. (Noise is a bit of an issue when it comes to indoor ponds.) My koi love playing in the bubbles and I enjoy being able to hold conversations nearby without yelling!
I'm a do-it-yourselfer, so I tried to duplicate this effect on the other end of my pond using a hose, bucket, and a flat stone, but the results were not nearly as aesthetically pleasing or silent. This is definitely one piece of pond equipment that's worth buying instead of trying to make!

Used for a hidden waterfall feature in a fifty gallon pond for an atrium. I put a filter in the slots in the reservoir.
Misleading picture

This is not worth the money. In the picture it shows a hose attachment in the back, but when you get it, there is just a giant hole in it. By the time you buy the expense bigger tubing and some attachments for it, it ends up being a $50 little waterfall. Not to mention the massive hassle of buying extra fittings and trying to make them fit snugly. I would return if I didn't have to pay $6 to ship it back.
Beautiful and perfect size for my pond

I installed this for a "secondary" filter feature to my fish pond. The inlet to this spillway comes from my bio filter and using some foam adhesive and moving around some stone I got it perfectly level and is a great addition. I used 3/4" tubing to connect. There is no top, so if you put any filter media or bio balls in the spillway, you will need something heavier to place on top.
Wonderful for my backyard waterfall

I wish I would have known about this sooner! The water comes out beautifully, sounds like a river.
Excellent waterfall feature for the money

Nice product that gives a nice waterfall feature to your pond. Had no problems with leakage, etc., my only advice would be to be sure you have it level so the water pours from it evenly. Seems to be well made, but we will see how it holds up over time. Very easy to have up and running in no time especially if you are not concealing it with rocks, stones, etc. I used lava rocks in it to help create more of a biological filter and to help weigh it down.
Great feature for our little pond.

It's good. It would have been nice if it came with instructions or even in a manufacturers box so I could see how to use it. All in all it works great and it is a nice feature for our little pond (waterfall is at the end of the video)
Great fountain addition

with June weather finally here I've built my new outdoor fountian. Using the waterfall and lights which really add a huge difference by adding not only light but night time drama when the water falls. The visual can be seen from several feet away.. The waterfall is very easy to install and helps give the fountain a complete look when paired with spray asscessory fountain
