PondKraft Solar Oxygenator

Arrived promptly and well packaged. Very simple to set up. Stream of bubbles very quickly.Needs to be a bright day but not necessarily full sun. If your shadow is in from to it it still keeps going just a few less bubbles. We have a bit of an issue with blanket weed and bought a treatment to deal with it but it says works best if pond well oxygenated. Bought this device as we don't have any electric running to the pond and also we have at least 20 baby fish that appeared this spring. Very exciting! So far so good. Waiting for a few more days then will try out the treatment. The bigger fish seem to like it too. Does what it says.

Having already bought a similar fantastic pump that went out of stock I opted for this one. It arrived next day and was easy to set up apart from the spike which is very loose and falls out when moving the solar board to face the sun throughout the day. Doesn't really matter tho once its in place the board doesn't move. It does exactly as described...when the sun FULLY hits the solar board the bubbles pour out the stone beautifully but it does need FULL sunlight to work unlike the other pump I bought for the same money that continues like a trooper even in cloudy conditions it just creates less bubbles. So I cannot complain as it does what it states but nothing more, you just need FULL sunlight for it to spring into action. The fish love it when its on.

Bought this PondKraft Solar Oxygenating pump 7 weeks ago after the previous pump of another brand - which was more expensive - suddenly stopped working after only 8 months. That one was also noisy and only worked with slow bubbles and only in full sun. What a difference this PondKraft Solar Oxygenating Pump has made. It was easy to fit, came to life straight away with amazing energy and fast bubbles - but is extremely quiet. What’s so good too is that as well as in sunshine the oxygenator will continue to work in light cloud cover, making good strength bubbles. We have a garden pond of 250 Ltrs with four Shubunkins of average size which have suddenly come to life since this new pump, water is much clearer and the plants too are looking healthier. All in all this is a fantastic buy, for a really good price and we’re really pleased and happy to recommend it.

Delivery was quick. Opened the box and within 5 minutes it was by the pond and working. Quite powerful for its size and leads and tubing are long enough to site the solar panel and pump in a suitable position. Solar Panel looks better than the one in the picture on Amazon. Black plastic surround rather than what looks like aluminium. Only works in sunshine or very bright weather but that is fine for me. They say the pump is suitable to be outdoors so let’s see. It has been working fine for a week, even in the hot temperatures - all seems good to me and saving electricity as I have unplugged my mains air pump now. What’s not to like?

Disappointing that it only works in direct sunlight, and that is, it literally doesn’t run if there is any cloud cover or haze or the panel is in shade. In direct sunlight it works fine. Not great for the UK tbh

It's the beginning of April, 9am in the morning, not a cloud in the sky, and the sun feels warm on my face... Unfortunately the pump isn't yet working. 10am, the pump springs into life, and will work until 5pm, when sunset is around 7pm. When this pump works, it works well and would be an excellent summer pump to add extra oxygen into a pond. Unfortunately, even on a fairly bright day, the slightest bit of cloud-cover will stop the pump from working. That said, when I sit by the pond and see the constant stream of bubbles rising to the surface, I get a very smug feeling knowing I'm not paying for the electricity.

I wasn't to sure how well this air pump would work but I am very pleased with the performance. Takes about 5 mins to set up and there is plenty of wiring and tubing to allow easy placement . As several reviewers have stated it does rely on sunshine to work , but when the sun shines it gives loads of air bubbles and is quite sensitive so if clouds pass over it cuts out. The fish took a few days to get used to it but now they enjoy swimming through the bubbles and the pond's clarity has improved and the water is sparkling. Highly recommended.

Solar panel is ok but the pump failed after 18 months. Supplier would not replace it. Poor support.

Läuft super! Sehr schnelle Lieferung! Produziert bei voller Sonne sehr gut und viel Sauerstoff in meinen kleinen Teich! Die Fische sagen Danke und fühlen sich sehr wohl!

Für so eine kleine Pumpe kommt sehr viel Luft durch. Solarstrom kommt nur bei voller Sonneneinstrahlung genug bei der Pumpe an. Wer auch bei Wolken Luft braucht, sollte entweder ein Akku zwischenschalten oder ein leistungsstärkeres Panel haben.

Die Solarsauerstoffpumpe erbringt eine sehr gut Leistung. Aber die Halterung von der Solarzelle hat den ersten Herbststurm nicht überlebt. Endspiel steckte noch im Boden. Solarzelle flog 2 Meter davon.

Tagsüber sprudelt er gut auch bei weniger Sonne, aber leider keine Akkus integriert. Augen auf beim Sprudler Kauf. Fische brauchen auch nachts Sauerstoff

sehr gute Sauerstoffversorgung in unserem Miniteich, Fische sind mobil, würde ich wieder kaufen
