This small pump is a real dynamo! We have it in an outside standing fountain and haven't had one problem with it. I bought this to replace a similar pump I purchased at a local garden store. That pump cost me almost $70.00 and lasted less than 2 months! This terrific pump from Amazon was less than $15.00!

| This is a fantastic pump! It's unbelievable how small it is, yet it is quite powerful. If you're looking to replace a pump in a small (table-top size) fountain (or are building a small fountain) this is NOT the pump you want! Try the Zoo Med Micro Pump 104 instead (another great pump, but not quite as powerful). It is adjustable, but is still rather strong, even on the lowest setting. I'm using it in a larger fountain, and it works great! Very easy to hide under rocks/pots, etc. Terrific pump at any price, even better at the $14.99 Amazon price. |
Zounds what a pump in a small body!

| This is one powerful little pump--probably more than I need for a small tabletop fountain. It will pump water 3 feet up. I got it for a bowl, rocks-shells type of tabletop fountain--nothing too elaborate. I filled up the bowl with the pump (right out of the box), some river rocks, water... plugged it in, water shot up out the pump in the bowl, sprayed my upper arm (I was reaching over it to plug it in), startled me to a little dance where I immediately unplugged the pump and turned the setting all the way down. And this is a 5" deep x 10" wide bowl I'm putting it in. You could easily get away with the smaller version of this pump for that size fountain, all I really wanted was a small burble over some stones, but I have to do some more constructing around the output of this pump--otherwise my desk will start to get a little soggy, and this is on the lowest setting. It still is pushing water up and out faster than I need, but it seems pretty solid so far. And it has little suction cup feet to stick to the bottom of the basin/bowl--nice! It stays in place so you can stack everything up nice and not fight the pump waggng all over! I'll update if I find anything else later on. |
Nice Little Fountain Pump!

| Great pump! It was easy to set up and really works great. The adjustment comes in very handy if you don't need to spray water everywhere. I'm using mine in a small outdoor fountain with a old coffee filter turned upside down to keep junk from getting in the pump and it works great. I replaced another pump with this one. Well worth the price! |
Insanely Powerful

| I bought this for an indoor fountain and it's really powerful. The first time that I plugged it in, it shot a stream of water a few feet into the air. Crazy! I've had a lot of fun with it so far. |

I bought this product for use in an automatic plant watering system and it has performed beautifully. I currently have it plugged into a switched power outlet however it could easily be connected to a timer instead for fully automated watering.
As for the pump itself, the flow and pressure are perfect for my use. I fooled around a bit with the flow control knob on the device but it didn't seem to change the flow at all. Either way, I am extremely satisfied with the product. |
