DannerManufacturing, Inc., Pondmaster Pond-Mag, Magnetic Drive Water Pump 1200 GPH, Black, 02722

Great pump

This pump is incredible! Piped it into my cold plunge. Chiller dropped 20 degrees in 2 hrs. Quiet, efficient.

I have using Danner pond pumps for the past fifteen years. Reliable and price point cannot be beat.

Had the pump running for a couple weeks now and no issues. Pond has been clearing up and flow rate is excellent for a small waterfall feature and filter setup in a small water garden.

My husband like the pond cord

Worked prefect. My fish survived the winter.

These pumps appearantly do not stop working. Had a 250 GPH in my first pond running muck and all through it for 3 years. Have in a skimmer now in a new pond and still going strong 24/7 It is also the same one I run in the winter, so actually 24/7 and all year round. the 1200 gph is just as good. If I HAD to complain and IM NOT, I would say that my 1200 which is used "inline" now is a bit noisy but it really isn't a problem and not sure why it would be a problem for anyone esp. since these cost me next to nothing to run BOTH. cant say enough about them, esp. if you run them in the last phase of a gravity filter (like you should anyway). Theres really nothing to break except the impeller and I don't see why it would even break in my situation. Wouldn't consider any other brand after using these. I really liked the nice looking external pumps I've seen online, but these have already been proven to me. Even if those other ones I was interested in do run a little cheaper per month w/ more gph, whats more important to me is these just wont stop yet.One more thing is you should take the time to run 1200 gph model through no less then 1 1/2" pipe. Get the two extra fittings and do it right.*updatePumps are still flawless through a properly set up koi pond (bottom drain, gravity filtered, settling chamber, matala, K-1 media bed.. the works) Koi happy and healthy w/ no losses, and all of my pumps have been running since my last review appearantly 22 months ago. As for the negative reviews, yes dont buy this if your going to put a pump in the bottom of a store bought pond and pump filthy, lifeless water through a 3/4 inch flex hose from the big box store, then over some rocks, then back to the "pond". Research your needs.

I've used these in the past and they have always been great. I ordered a new one and it came with the back plate broken off. There are screwdriver marks where it was obvious that someone was trying to get into it for parts. After seeing there was no way to get into it past the back plate they must have returned it. I was the lucky guy to get it. I'm trying to use it and it seems to work ok but a little noisier than my last one. Hopefully it keeps working.
