We've had our pond for a couple years now and the leaves falling into the water during the fall season are overwhelming. (And smelly when they stay in and sink to the bottom and rot.)Really not able to have a recommended fix for my lack of five stars, because it really depends on where it is installed. You have sudden windy days here in the mid-west. Even with it locked down with all the tools, we still have it fly off. Now that I think about it, we will probably add more stakes to the base.But otherwise - wonderful product. Price is great. Highly recommend.
