Added a waterfall and needed a larger pump. The pump I replaced was a pondmaster that was four year olds and still working. Waterfall looks great and fully expect the same performance from this pump.

So far so good with this pump. I am using it on a waterfall and it has done well so far. Has not clogged up or given me problems in 2 months.

I've owned two of these pumps for my backyard pond. The first one lasted many years, about 10, and probably would have kept on humming if our big pup had not pulled it out & chewed the cord before I set the pond up this spring. I also set this pump inside a pump sock that has pvc balls inside. The sock acts as a filter for fine particulates and the pvc balls act as a bio-filter to help clarify the water.

Very good construction and quality - love the pump but think I oversized initially....am downsizing to a model 7 pondmaster to better fit the 60 gallon acrylic I have. Thanks.

Owned a much smaller Pondmaster MagDrive - 350 that runs continously even during the winter for more than 8 years. Never a problem. I expect this should perform the same way. Its very quiet and well built. The specs of the pump are dead on with regards to the GPH it provides. WIth 10 feet of 1 inside diameter hose pumping 3 feet of that below water - through a UV lamp it will produce about 700 GPH to my pressure filter which isn't bad. I think a 1 1/2 hose would produce a bit more. Vendor delivered the pump quickly and it was in a retail box. What more can I say - its a good quiet and well made pump. The price was far cheaper as well.

Keeping it for a back up because pond maintenance always has unexpected problems arise and I like to be prepared.

I've had this for a year now and have not had any problems with it. It's being used as a return pump for a saltwater tank.

I have been satisfied with the performance of the first of these pumps I purchased, and I expect the same performance from this one. I purchased this pump to keep my pond going while I maintain the first pump (clean the impeller). These pumps are dependable and easy to maintain.

I used this pump to setup a mixing station for my saltwater tank. It is very powerful and pretty quiet. Product came as described and in good new condition. Took awhile to arrive, but still in the shipping/arrival window that was estimated.

I ordered 3 pumps for an indoor fountain. others made too much noise and were cheaply made. this pump runs so quietly, I don't even hear it running. it does make a clunk noise when I turn it on, but runs like a charm and is unbelievably quiet. I would definitely recommend.

I purchased this to replace a Barracuda 1/4 HP Thermoplastic Utility Pump which continually tripped the GFCI and would occasionally stop working altogether. The old pump was rated at 1800 GPH as compared to the Danner at 950 GPH. The Danner pump vastly outperforms the Barracuda pump despite being rated at 50% of the flow. NOTE: This pump comes with the Rigid pump filter and not the foam filter as stated in the listing.

Have had this running as an in-sump pump for my 225 gallon aquarium for about 2 weeks now. Absolutely no problems with it, and it is DEAD silent. I can't hear it running at all, even when I am right in front of the sump. Good, strong flow, runs quiet, good warranty, and is repairable if something happens to the impeller. One concern I had going in was what kind of heat might be added to the tank by using this submerged, but the difference in temp has been negligible (maybe 1 or 2 degrees, if at all).Would recommend to anyone looking for a submersible pump, have not tried it externally.

The pump is working great, but did not come with the foam filter as described. It has a plastic cage prefilter which I think works better. I will eventually connect it to a skimmer and will not need the prefilter.

I bought this pump for a fountain I built. It provided more than enough water flow than I needed.

Bought this pump over 5 years ago. Still going and it runs all year 24/7. It has only been taken down two winters during extreme cold. Unless the water freezes around the pump or lines freeze it can easily go all year. Easy to maintain and parts are readily available. I have only had to replace the impeller once. It does come with a hard plastic cage prefilter but is adaptable with foam filters in most pond supplies--a non issue--got my foam filter at local big box hardware. Works perfectly.

This is the third Danner Mag Pump I have had over 10+ years and am replacing the existing one after 6 years continuous duty submerged in my fish pond not because it is broken - it is still running strongly - but I wanted to increase flow rates.If you are looking for total reliability backed by a good warantee ( never useded ) this is the pump you should buy.

This is a solid product. It runs quietly and works well for the waterflll on my 800-1000 gallon pond. I run one 3/4 inch hose from a filter box to the pump and another from the pump to the waterfall. It is a plus that the impeller can be replaced for $25-30. The item was shipped quickly.
