Towering Wind Spinner is a Year-Round Attraction

Like a jumbo version of a child's pinwheel, this 74" tall kinetic sculpture turns in the slightest breeze. The two, flower-like blades spin in opposite directions to create a fascinating visual effect. An instant and dramatic focal point for your garden; just stake it into the ground and watch the wind bring it to life.

  • Powder-coated steel
  • 74" H installed x 22" W
  • Note: in high wind locations, base should be embedded in concrete

        Comments about Dahlia Wind Spinner:

        This product is the worst I've ever bought. It's beautiful and we set it up based on following the directions. Even in big wind, it barely moves and in light wind, forget seeing it in motion. We have slightly bent it and even added oil to make it easier to move with no luck. A lot of money for a product that doesn't spin which was why we bought it.

        Comments about Dahlia Wind Spinner:

        This product is awful! I have a variety of these spinners and they all work incredibly well in the softest of breezes. This one doesnt rotate on its own to catch the wind. It just sits there doing nothing. Maybe one day the wind will blow in just the right direction and it will spin? It sits in a grouping of other spinners and doesnt spin at all. If I had known it didnt rotate, I would have never ordered it. They need to rotate in the direction of the wind to spin! Someone needs to educate the artist how spinners work. Oh, did I mention how flimsy it is? Awful! Just Awful!
        Save Your Money and throw it to the wind!

            Nice looking but had florescent green paint accents that did not match the "Rustic" description. Spinning blades where not balanced and would not spin in moderate winds. Sent it back USPS and it cost $34.58 :(

            Comments about Dahlia Wind Spinner:

            This was an attractive addition to our bird & butterfly garden. Unfortunately, the blades are very, very fragile. Under normal use (spinning in the wind), several of the blades have broken off and I've reattached them. Now, however, I see that two more blades are missing. It would be a great product if the blades were made of some other material.

              Comments about Dahlia Wind Spinner:

              This thing just does not want to spin. In a heavy wind perhaps one side might spin a bit, but rarely are we lucky enough to see movement. We've moved it around to face in different directions with no discernable difference in the result. If you want motion in a yard ornament, this is not it.

                Been coveting this for awhile. Got it for Xmas, but it arrived damaged (like everything I ordered that was delivered by UPS this year). But customer service replaced it immediately. Nice to know the company stands behind its product.
                Can't wait to put it in the garden this spring!!

                Comments about Dahlia Wind Spinner:

                I have adjusted the blades on the wheel to the point where the stress on the parts may break them. Both of the wheels are out of balance. The wheel just "hangs" in the still position -- heaviest blade down. The inner parts of the wheel spokes are quite stiff and I cannot risk breaking them by adding too much pressure.

                Becuase directions with the product call for the product to be set in concrete in an area subject to winds, we will not be able to set-up and use the product until after the spring melt and ground thawing. Also, because the product does not follow the wind direction, we will be forced to find an unplanned location for the spinner in order to view it face-on. NOT A WISE PURCHASE!!

                  Comments about Dahlia Wind Spinner:

                  I purchased this as a gift for my daughter. They were thrilled. It adds interest to their backyard, and is very attractive. Because they have a stockade fence, we had to adjust the position several times before we caught the wind.
                  The only negative is the support rod vibrates quite a bit.
                  I hope it can endure the elements.
