With summer finally arriving, many homeowners are sprucing up their gardens and outdoor spaces. Shoppers have been singing the praises of an 'adorable' outdoor fountain they claim is 'very relaxing to listen to.' The Smart Solar Duck Family Fountain, available at Charlies, has been reduced from £169.99 to £107.99 — and it's been garnering outstanding reviews.
Charming Design and Features
Featuring a charming duck design that's certain to be a conversation starter amongst guests, the item is both solar powered and completely wire-free. The soothing sound of water accompanies a design that depicts one mother duck holding an umbrella, surrounded by four delightful ducklings. Water cascades down around the duck family from the umbrella, creating a realistic rain effect. Charlies recommends placing it in direct sunlight for the best results.

Customer Reviews
Having received 130 reviews, the Smart Solar Duck Family Fountain is proving popular with shoppers refreshing their gardens. One purchaser commented: 'Super birdbath, love it, arrived very well packaged. Easy to assemble plus no batteries or electrical supply required. Wonderful - instant joy. Was unsure if it would be as sturdy as it looks but it's brilliant. It's got the appearance of being solid, and is weighted well but easy to move if required. Worked immediately too as the sun was out.'
Another customer enthused: 'Arrived safely on time easy to put together, fairly strong, looks really nice just need the sun to shine very relaxing to listen to when the fountain is on and reasonable price. Thank you.'
A third reviewer stated as part of an extensive five-star review: 'I think it's adorable. It is a lovely deep aged gold colour, not bright or garish and it produces quite a large amount of sound which is surprising as each trickle is very small. I love this fountain and it is a lovely focal point for my small garden.' They added: 'The duck family is crafted very well and as a whole, is very well put together.'
It's worth noting that one individual mentioned: 'Looks very good - works well in the sun, but only one gripe is that it's a little light so a bit worried a storm will knock it over.' Nevertheless, another satisfied purchaser remarked: 'Very pleased with the fountain, loving the sound of running water, very relaxing.' An additional customer awarded it five stars, stating in their review: 'The duck fountain was a present to my sister for her 70th birthday - she loved it. It has pride of place on her patio.'
