I think this is a good idea, they save power. They aren't as powerful as a
Beckett, in that they lose gph fast due to head. As in, on my pond, the
Danner 1800 will only give 1300-1400 gph, while my 1600 Becket will give
me
1500 gph. ~ jan
=======================
That's quite a difference. The old Beckett served us faithfully for years.
But as someone suggested, the quality may be slipping. I'll avoid Beckett
for awhile. I have a smaller Beckette (traded for koi) that's holding down
the fort until the new Pondmaster gets here.

At the Pet Industry trade shows, you don't see Beckett. You will always
see Pondmaster.

That doesn't surprise me a bit. I don't mind the S&H charges for
Pondmasters if they last awhile.

I got mine from azponds.com and if I remember right, shipping was free.

That's where I ordered my new Pondmaster from. It should be here in a few
days.

I'd rather have something I know will work. One lousy afternoon at a
really inopportune time rushing to change a dead pump will generally
cure you. :-)

LOL!!! :-D That's exactly what happened. I'm glad I keep extra pumps
(small older ones) on hand. I 102F heat, tired, hungry, thristy from a day
of yard work, we're out there pulling back the net and dragging up the "new"
pump..........
