when the water flows over the center rock...does it eliminate its "molded" look?

It doesn't really change the appearance. This is my second season. I think it is a nice fountain for the price. Only complaint would be that the paint scuffs easily.

No.. Very molded.. Not same color as natural rocks and left out in winter and whole thing cracked.

I have mine as part of a fish pond outside. I have it hooked to a larger pump and draws water from the fish pond always fighting green algae, mostly in warm weather. I have had mine for about two years the paint they put on the fountain has faded some

No...the center rock just isn't attractive. It sufficed, but I later found a fountain I liked better and planted flowers in this one....it looks lovely. :)

Yes it does reduce the flow of water. If you have a good flow now it is not significant.

Unfortunately, no. It is a flat surface, but it is not a smooth surface. There are crevices, etc.

Yes. a very porous one, but there is one in there. I am using this in outdoor water feature, working fine so far.

It'll do just fine agains a drizzle, a downpour may soak trhu. You definitely do not want to submerge it in water.

The fact is it is supposed to be covered with water at all times. I did allow mine to get the top half uncovered and did not cause any damage. I would not recommend letting any part of it to not be submerged completely.

No, some water will go through the product, but it keeps a large amount of water out. It's good, but not perfect.

No, it flattens immediately, but do cover it with plastic. If you get it wet it soaks through.

No it does not. It has small holes to let the air flow through to keep the water fresh.

Im not sure...I bought as a gift. It percolate I think which would get the water moving around

It isn't, however, I suggest spraying it down with some waterproofing shoe spray, it will allow the water to bead right off of it. After owning this item for a few years I would still highly recommend it.

It sets outside and i really hadn't noticed.The water reservoir is in the bottom, so that probably stabilizes it.

No, you only need to place it in the hot water during the initial molding/fitting. Once it cools, it will retain the shape you've formed.

It might. It gets pretty goopy so you'll have to have good flow control if you want a nice finished look

Yes, it is. The texture is smooth in some areas and more corse in others so from afar it does appear that it is carved from a rock and smoothed out in some areas.

No! And the salt gets clogged really easy! You have to bang on it pretty good to get it clear. Hope this helps

The answer in probably yes. I left it out in the rain and got plenty soggy;which means it is porous.
