Anyone who buys this and gets it to feel sturdy with what is provided in the box more power to you.

I installed it in rocks thinking it would be easiest way to get level. Not so much. I’m not a perfectionist but if it’s not level or close to it the water will be unlevel when you fill it up and it looks really bad with the design of it. And what’s worse if it’s unlevel when you put water in it, the bath I swear gets even more unlevel. If this is how it is day one, in a few months I’d hate to see it.

After 3 attempts to level it and put the provided stakes in the ground I decided I had to actually put a big stake right down the center.

I took a junk 1×1 and shaved off about a quarter of an inch and made the end have a spike. I put the spike through the center of the first few sections of the birdbath (easy to do it’s hollow) and then made sure it was level before I put the top on. The top being so wonky it was tough to find a good place to put the level. Once it was good, I put the provided stakes on the base for security. And filled it up.

Doing this took about 15 minutes and 5 of those minutes was me finding the scrap wood and tools.

Now it’s sturdy and won’t tip. This would be perfect if they provided a stake that would run down the base. See photos. I snapped them as I went.
