Woodstock Wind Chimes of Mars Chime for Outside 17" Bronze Small Light Sound Wind Chime Décor for Outdoor Garden, Patio, Porch, Encore Collection

Yes, it is small, almost delicate-looking, but it is very pretty, both visually and auditorily. I don't know what other reviewers mean about the chimes needing a strong breeze to work. I hung mine at the back stoop, which is protected under a metal awning. They still need only a soft breeze to quietly, peacefully chime. In a stronger breeze, all the chimes are rung for several seconds and then fade away. I like the difference in tone and loudness with different "breeze strength". This is my first set of chimes from Woodstock, and I'm impressed by the quality difference that tuning seems to make. None of the tinkly, sometimes irritating quality of ordinary cheap wind chimes. I can't say I know the difference between Mars, Pluto, and Earth ones, but my Mars chime really does sound like music. I'm happy with my purchase and would consider buying a larger, more expensive Woodstock chime in the future for another spot. Definitely worth the money.

Bought first set in 2011, absolutely loved them under bedroom window. Stayed out 13 years and wasn't quite diminished but decided to replace. Same quality, wonderful sound, highly recommend!

I have been looking for wind chimes to hang outside our apartment for a while now, and I think what finally convinced me to make this purchase was the price. It was low enough that buying the product to try wouldn't break the bank. When we first hung the chime from a hook in the ceiling of our back patio, we realized it was too sheltered under the overhang, so we added a carabiner clip to make it hang down further. Once we added the clip the wind was able to reach the chime and it sounds lovely! The sound is a little different to traditional wind chimes, it's soft and does sound like the video clip on the product page. What I especially liked about this Woodstock chime is that the product comes with with the notes the chime will play as well as a tuning guarantee. So far the components of the chime have stood up to some spring storms, so the weather-proofing is more than adequate.

I have owned many windchimes over the years mostly purchased at local discount centers or dollar strores. Well, these are way different! The Woodstock chimes are excellent and made with high quality materials for long life and beauty. The one I got is a small one so don't expect a huge bone shaking chime. It is a pleasant high pitched and melodious song. I love it and you will too. The price point is way below the quality.

I'm happy with the purchase, but MUSICIANS TAKE NOTE! These chimes are tuned to the G **MINOR** scale. From bottom to top: D, E flat, G, A, B flat. As a result, the sound is SOMBER and mysterious. If you're looking for cheery tones, these chimes will not fit the bill. If you look diligently, the little movie that provides you with the sound sample also shows the notes of the scale to which these chimes are tuned. I didn't spot that until after receiving these chimes. It's to Woodstock chimes credit that they do this, but I wish that information wasn't "buried" in a not-obvious spot. And there's another thing to keep in mind. The "drop" - the diamond-shaped piece of wood that is meant to catch the wind - is too heavy to allow the chimes to sound in anything but a brisk gust of wind. The good thing is that the drop is easily replaced. I cut an equally sized diamond shape from the plastic top of a disposable food container and now the chimes sound with subtle regularity. I have found this "heavy drop" issue to occur with other Woodstock Chimes I've purchased in the past, though with others the drop was not replaceable. So I recommend these chimes, but please be aware of those two characteristics and decide accordingly if you're considering a purchase.

We have always purchased Woodstock chimes because of the incredible quality of SOUNDS. We own 4 now in the gardens and this one is near an office/bedroom. Its a dreamy chime that calms you. Not so loud it startles you like a bang.

I had previously purchased a larger chime from this company and impressed by its quality and sound decided to go with the same brand when purchasing additional smaller chimes. These are exceptional quality for the price - well made, a great size for hanging on my trees and they have a pretty chime. It is good to go right out of the box and hangs easily with good quality cord . The chime is pretty and easily activated in a light wind - but not so easy that it becomes over bearing! It has a delicate pleasant tone. It has a great design, in bronze tones that are simple with clean lines! Overall this is an exceptional quality for an amazing price

My favorite windchimes!! Third set I've purchased. The price here on Amazon is half the price of what they retail for at fancy garden centers. These chimes sound wonderful, even better when paired with other Woodstock chimes. I have Mercury and Mars in the same area. A light breeze is just enough to make them move. I ordered a black set to match all the wrought iron in the garden. The other sets I own ended up getting spray painted after they had aged quite a bit. Woodstock offers replacement parts on their chimes. I was unaware of this until now. My oldest set lasted 10 years in the baking hot summer sun and through years of storms until a piece was lost. I'll be getting the missing part for that set now, reparing them, and returning them to the garden!!! Recommend these!

dzwonki przy średnim wietrze nie dzwonią :(

J'ai mis ce petit carillon à l'extérieur accroché à ma tonnelle. Il tinte au moindre petit vent et produit un son très mélodieux. Il n'est pas grand donc distrait et souvent les gens ne le remarquent pas sauf quant il tintinabule.

Bellissimo colore, suono melodioso, cercavo proprio qualcosa di rilassante e meditativo ed è questo il caso. Non è troppo grande il che lo rende perfetto per il mio albero di mandarini, nello stesso tempo spicca per questo colore molto bello; mi piace che il Wind catcher sia staccabile e personalizzabile, ho delle idee in mente! Molto soddisfatta del mio acquisto

チャイム(chime)の、煌びやかな、音色が、時折、日々の喧騒を、忘れさせて、心(こころ)弾ませたり、和(なごみ)を、与え、時には、明るく、楽しい、気分になる、どこか、神秘的な力を持った、洋風の、風鈴の様な、物ですが、高音で、鮮明な音色を、奏でる所も、この商品の、魅力の一つでも有るように、思えます。人は、十人十色で、価値観も、多種、多様で、個々人によって、全く、異なる物で、有るけれども、時々、柔軟な、思考や思慮、心情、思想、若しくは、考え方等を、持つ事も、大切な事の、一つでは無いのかとも、思います(飽く迄も、一個人としての、思慮です)。

For sound quality Woodstock Chimes are clearly the best. From past experience you can get over 10 years problem free, after that just a little maintenance now and again. They will last longer than most marriages.
