Monarch Rain Chains Pure Copper Lotus Cup Rain Chains for Gutters – 8.5 ft Decorative Rainchain Outdoor Durable Heavy Duty Gutter Chain Downspout Replacement, Modern Rainchains for Outside

The Monarch rain chain is an amazing product that is stunning and easy to install! I did it myself with no help from my husband. It’s actually copper and not coated metal like some others, so it won’t rust. I had to buy a small chain and ground steak to keep it from swaying in the wind, but otherwise it was perfect!

It’s so pretty when it’s a light rain

Beautiful! Does the job and looks and sounds amazing while doing it!

Love the way it looks when it rains. Much better than a downspout. Doesn't work as great in a heavy downpour.

100% I’ve wanted this for so long, back when it was $80.

This rain chain is beautiful and elegant and so soothing to lazily watch and listen to during a rainy day. My wife decided that we should install a rain barrel because there was an area of our rain gutter that would occasionally overflow during large storms. An added benefit is helping with water for the front lawn. The traditional rain barrel arrangements would have required adding an ugly downspout, fortunately while surfing Amazon, it recommended a rain chain, intrigued I searched some more and found this beauty. We've have 3 rainy days since I've installed it. I had to make a couple of adjustments to help manage the flow. If the water comes down too quickly, the chain will start to swirl due to the centrifugal force of the water essentially going through multiple little drains. Also, leaves and junk that make it through to the rain gutters can clog the holes on top resulting in water being forced over the edges and splashing the side of the house. I basically narrowed the top opening from the rain gutter and inserted a steel wool pad in the top bowl to act as a sieve. Has worked well since. The chain is easy to shorten, just bend the rods at the necessary cup and remove what you don't need. The unused bowls make great candles holders. I haven't had it long enough to notice any changes in color, hopefully the copper will age nicely. In the meantime, it looks fantastic. My neighbors have given me compliments on the setup. Highly recommend you get one.

This is so great, lovely sound, makes sitting on the porch in the rain an absolute delight! Easy to install!

We ordered this rain chain to replace a downspout by our front door. We had an old post removed and a new porch railing put in, so the old down spout was about a foot away from the new post and hanging in mid air. In my experience: PROS -Beautiful and unique. Adds to curb appeal and visual interest. -Good alternative to ugly or weirdly placed downspouts. -Sounds really lovely and is relaxing to watch (see my attached video) -Can water plants in following days from the rain water collected in a pot at the base of the chain. It’s best if you have a French drain of some sort underneath, but an anchored rain barrel can work well too. CONS -Can get overwhelmed in heavy rain if your gutters are not balanced. We are having our gutters replaced soon and plan to divert some water away from the porch where it comes down the rain chain. If you have very heavy rains or storms, it may overwhelm the chain. This really works best for drizzly rains. -A little tricky to install, but not bad. We bought the extra attachment to make the opening at the top where the gutter meets the chain smaller. -Started oxidizing quite a bit after the very first rain. It’s copper so that’s to be expected, but I hoped it would be more gradual. Overall we really like this chain and don’t regret purchasing it. I do with it would have been a little bit cheaper though.

It is a beautiful rain chain. It has enhanced the front of my house.

Nice product

By two if you're putting on in an eves for a nicer length. The price is expensive, but its cooper, so we will see how well it takes the weather over time. There is no dowl or pin to hold this in a drain spout, I had to use a stick.

This was a Christmas gift for my daughter and her family. They thought it was such a unique and attractive gift. The quality of the copper and the workmanship are just excellent and the individual lotus flowers are very beautiful. It is now hanging outside beside the living-room picture window. In a heavy rainstorm my grandchildren just love watching the water coming off the eaves trough and flowing from one copper lotus flower to the next. I am planning to buy another one this Christmas for my best friend because this one is already oxidizing into a beautifully burnished piece of garden art that the family treasures.

Well made. Exactly as described. One week out in the rain and already getting a lovely patina.
