The Mini Water Garden is more Mini than I expected.
By superpredator
The picture on the cover of the book is a bit misleading. I expected a dish full of stones and instead found I have a plastic cup (a little smaller in width than a cola can) with 5 small stones in it. It looks rather silly, since the cup can hold many more stones than the 5 mine came with. They don’t even cover the bottom of the cup. The pump is rather amusing too. Sometimes one squeeze will bring a little bubble of air to the surface, and sometimes it will shoot out and splash around the cup. It’s actually fairly entertaining, but I’ve also made a pretty big mess on my desk. The pump has a hole in the bellows part, and I found that if I suck the water through that and then squeeze the bellows the pond continues to bubble for a while. Unfortunately that didn’t work for long because the last time I tried it squeezing the bellows shot all the water out of the wrong end of the pump and right up my nose. This is getting more entertaining by the minute. I recommend this if you are looking for an unusual addition to your desk and don’t mind the mess. You might want to add your own stones, though to make it look more like a water garden.

Completely underwhelmed!
By A
The cover says “…everything necessary to recreate the relaxing sound of rippling water wherever it’s most needed, whether at home, at work, or on the road.” Like the other reviewer, I was unimpressed by this “water garden”. I got six tiny pebbles that don’t cover the bottom of the small plastic cup, and it certainly doesn’t “recreate the relaxing sound of water”. I’m sorry to say the sound created most closely resembles a short, wet fart. Not recommended.

High ‘Giggle Factor ‘ leaves you all wet!!
By girldiver
I am a Book Store groupie, someone point me to the self help group please. As I was checking out one day and I saw all these cutey patutey little mini whatevers while standing in line. All kinds mind you: mini fondue, mini budda, mini guide to fenge shui, and then I saw it the ‘mini water garden kit’. I immediately had to have it.

Now, I don’t know about other people, but let’s be realistic; it’s a counter item, last stop shopping to the check out, a fun diversion in a 2 and a half inch box. Can we say cheap scale novelty items for suckers like me!

Okay I opened it and the giggle fest began. It wasn’t the 5 rocks in the heatsealed plastic baggy or the plastic container
to hold my water and rocks that sent me into crying giggling fits of laughter. The giggle fit started at the sight of the miniture hand pump to make the water gurgle and spray………….I just about wet myself giggling at my fully functional, MANUAL, mini water garden.

If nothing else you will have a good laugh and that is worth everything!
