Leigh Country TX 93471 6' Rustic Tripod Fleur De Lis Metal Windmill

I purchased this Windmill for my husband's birthday, he loved it and put this together the next day and placed it in the yard using the 3 spikes that came with the product. The next morning he woke to find the windmill on its side. The spikes did not do the job of holding the windmill up and that was disappointing. My husband anchored the windmill using other materials but we now have this beautiful windmill that was supposed to be quiet, making the most irritating noise when the wind blows strong. Very disappointed and would love to know if I can purchase the round blade so that we can once again enjoy this beautiful windmill.

Coating was chippping off when it arrived. Legs had slag in joint area and required cleaning prior to assembly. Difficult to assemble tier below blades and did not readily fit into place. Tail piece does not readily shift. Will require some modification to easily swing. Blade assembly binds and will require minor modifications to easily turn. Poor directions and difficult to assemble.

The assembly instructions were vague but passable. If I had followed the step that said to securely tighten the cap nut (in front of the propeller), the propeller would never rotate. Otherwise, it's a good looking decoration.

Beautiful lawn decor. Heavy gauge metal. The only thing I didn't like is that the blades on the windmill do not turn as they are too heavy....
