Nice rain chains
Nice design; functional and aesthetic. Works well and looks nice with cylindrical pillars. They’re slender but the open design allows for good flow. It comes with V shaped mounting hooks so there’s no need to buy anything else.

They were easy to hang from gutter after I removed the downspout ...
These chains were not too difficult to assemble, although they do ship completely in individual parts. Only took me 5 minutes and three beers. Also, a short trip to the ER. But that was her fault, not mine, and I'm sticking to my story. They were easy to hang from gutter after I removed the downspout and threw it in my neighbors yard, although I do recommend the additional accessory to mount inside the actual gutter. Also, I did use some silicone caulk in the gutter to seal in the mount because before I did that, the water just poured out everywhere. Afterwards, it did peacefully cascade down the chain all the way to the ground. In heavy rain, all hell breaks loose, but to be quite honest, who the hell is in their yard during a heavy rain storm anyway, watching the dangling chains of oppression contain the nourishing water of life from splashing wherever the universe has intended. In all, I did find this to be a very nice purchase. Don't expect it to bring you to Nirvana, but it's better than some crappy downspouts.

Stylish & Functional
Wish they were a tad bigger in size, but they function like they should. Quieter than the normal sound you would expect from rain chains like these. We wanted something more simple in design, that wouldn’t obstruct our view. Used a weighted bowl at the bottom with landscape rocks to keep them from blowing in the wind. Would purchase again.

Work great easy install
These are wonderful. I’m glad someone else posted a video. They really work. We live in Florida so we get rain. The rain goes perfectly thru the squares. If it’s windy then the water is blown some but so is the rain. Our front porch didn’t get any wetter then it normally did in windy rainy conditions. They took minutes to install. We didn’t get the adapters to install them to our gutter because the adapters were the wrong size but when they arrived they have a V shaped thing at the top that holds the chain in place at the gutter. We just dropped them into the gutter and they were installed. We ordered one extra set to add length to the other three to make an exact size to the ground. We attached the bottom with tap cons into the concrete. We will probably replace our gutters that end on grass with these and use those corkscrews in the grass so they are solid. They are so pretty and make the front of the house so much nicer. Our neighbors even commented how nice our place looked not realizing we did a simple change of the gutters.

Attractive, but the transition from gutter to chain is not well-designed
I have these installed in two locations. There's an 8 ft drop from the gutter at the house entrance and a 23 ft drop at the back of the house where there's a 4 ft overhang. Installed it using the supplied plate-and-tube (no real installation instructions at all), and used the brass cross-bolt through the tube to hang the first link, as you see in the videos. There was a V-shaped black piece provided, but it's not mentioned in either the brief folded paper in the box or shown in any of the videos. So we just set it on the top with the V pointing down. Terrible rain pattern! In anything but torrential rain, the water splashed off the brass cross-bolt and sprayed everywhere, but did not run down the links. So we took out the brass cross, bolt and hung the links off the V, thinking it would help to guide the water into the middle of the chain. That worked a bit better but was still very splashy. Finally we carefully aligned the V with direction of the gutter and used clear caulk to create a sort of channel leading to the arm of the V so that water would flow that way first, and made a raised barrier around the back of the plate-and-tube opening so that water would not tend to go that way unless there was a lot of rain. This improved the flow greatly, so we redid the other chain the same way. (see photo) Now that I know how to coax the water into the chain, I'd definitely use these chains again.

Gutter alternative
It works . Easy to install , it splashes a little when it is not raining hard . I have a gutter on one end , this part was overflowing during heavy rainfall .

Good product
I purchased a few of these a little over a month and half ago. I did not install myself. We were already having new gutters installed, the installer put them in for us so they were perfectly fitted. Worth every penny, they held through a couple of heavy days of rain. Love the look of these and very lightweight compared to I’ve purchased and returned.

Hab mir diese Regenkette gekauft da sie ein interessantes Design hat und vom Preis noch nahewegs okay und nicht völlig übertrieben teuer ist. Die Glieder sind tatsächlich alle aus Aluminium, gut verarbeitet und selbst die Pulverbeschichtung ist ohne Maken und gut. Kann ich empfehlen auch wenn sie nicht gerade günstig ist

Son de metal y se ve bien el acabado de la pintura. Crei que serían más grandes, pero puse las fotos como referencia.

El producto tiene un diametro pequeño, la construcción deja mucho que desear, se que es un producto barato pero deberia tener mejor calidad. El trato del vendedor ha sido pésimo, se le ha solicitado una factura y no hay manera, no es nada recomendable, tampoco se puede devolver ya que se pagarían unos gastos superiores al producto.

Very light and easy to adjust and install.
