2023 TOP 5 FOUNTAINS

Fountain fireworks are ideal for smaller gardens, and are also great for starting larger displays, but with so many on the market which products are considered the better buys? Here we list our top 5 fountain recommendations.

Traffic Cones - Noise Rating 2/10 - 25 Seconds Each - Cost £3.96

In fifth place we have Traffic Cones by Standard fireworks and these fountains are surprising for a number of different reasons. Firstly just £3.96 buys you a pack of 3 machine-pressed high-quality fountains, and secondly you won't believe the effects produced from fireworks of this size! The cones, measuring just 8 cm in height, are able to thrust beautiful effects well over 6ft high, and combined they have a duration of 75 seconds. For such little money, you simply can't go wrong!

Titanium Fountain - Noise Rating 2/10 - 60 Seconds - Cost £14.94

Black Cat's Titanium fountain oozes both class and sophistication. This high-end fountain has a premium build quality and, lacking any crackle, is extremely quiet throughout. Ideal when fired to music, this would look amazing in multiples and gives a vivid blue flame, powerful titanium spray and a third layer of golden flowers. Put simply, fountains don't get classier than this!

Spectrum Fountain - Noise Rating 2/10 - 40 Seconds - Cost £11.94

Standard's Spectrum Fountain produces fantastic 'jelly bean' like stars and because they are much larger than the sparks produced from a typical fountain, they are not only much more vivid, but they also burn for much longer too. The Spectrum fountain is highly unique, and easy to distinguish from other fountains. Its display is kaleidoscopic, quiet, extremely bright and effects will reach the ground before bouncing around joyfully.

Copper Rain - Noise Rating 5/10 - 50 Seconds - Cost £9.96

In second place is Black Cat's Copper Rain, and this is easily our most impressive conical fountain. The cone is reported to be the most powerful conical fountain in the UK, and its colour gives a dirtier gold than most traditional fountains which in turn produces a jaw-dropping rich copper colour, as the name suggests. Copper Rain produces an abundance of thick, showering sparks, gives little smoke, has a consistent and steady burn and lasts a full minute in duration.

Glittering Fire - Noise Rating 5/10 - 180 Seconds - Cost £14.94

In top spot we have Glittering Fire, a fountain which unbelievably lasts for 3 full minutes in duration! This firework is certainly the jewel in the crown, and a glittering cascade of jewels is what awaits all lucky enough to see this fountain fired. During its stunning, and hugely varied, performance this multi-effect fountain consumes over 200 grams of explosive powder, pushes effects almost 4ft high and produces golden spray, red flame, popping chrysanthemums, yellow flame, green and red stars, fluttering bouquets, popcorn clusters, crackling, very rare swimming go-getters and much, much more. You certainly won't be disappointed.

In our opinion all displays benefit from the use of fountains and by choosing any of the choices above you are guaranteed excellent value for money, premium effects and good duration.
