Customer Reviews for BECKETT 160 GPH Low Water Auto Shut-Off Submersible Fountain Pump

Works great for a low volume, low lift fountain. Perfect as a "bubbler" fountain when placed about 10 inches below water level.

This pump has a nice and easy dial to turn how much flow you want in your fountain. Powerful pump.

Works great with a 3 tier water fountain. Very quiet.

I ordered this pump to replace the pump in a table fountain I bought for my daughters’ bedside tables. We love the fountain, but the pumps stopped performing after just a few months, even though I cleaned it frequently, and I didn’t want to toss the entire fountain. This pump is wayyyyy better quality, solidly built and I can take it apart to clean it if needed. It pumps well, creates a nice water trickling sound, without having to listen to the pump motor. Fortunately it fits perfectly in my existing table top fountains (included a pic so you could see the size of the fountain), and connects to the existing 1/4 inch tubing in the fountain, the pump itself doesn’t come with tubing. The only downside, is the cord is thick side. Nonetheless, I didn’t have a problem fitting it in the base, and it’s easily hidden behind the fountain when placed on the table.

Easy to install. It comes with a little adjuster so it can fit different sizes of tubes. Just slipped it on and plugged it in and the fountain started bubbling away. Holds up to subfreezing temperatures on my deck. Very good product.

The pump was the perfect size for my patio-pot fountain!

I bought it on May 15, 2019 and it worked until May 29! When I checked the pump it was hot and did not work. I can’t returned it because I threw the package to trash. So sad

The box had been opened previously and taped back shut. There was no rating table showing the flow rate versus height so in my application with a 6.5 foot lift the flow is much lower than expected. More of a .75 gallon per minute rather than 4.2 gallon per minute flow rate (250 gallon per hour) claimed. The pump is very quiet and with limited use so far it has been dependable. I like the extra long power cord that reaches all the way to the outlet with no extension chord needed. I would recommend it to someone with a project not needing much of a lift.

This works perfectly for our fountain.

This sweet small fountain pump is just perfect for my bird bath, which I wanted to add some gentle movement to the water. I covered it up a wee bit with some large seashells for two reasons: 1) to hold the pump in place, and 2) to help camouflage the electrical cord. You'll see I also added some Boston ferns around the bird bath which all 3 I bought at Home Depot also! LOVE it! So easy and I didn't need/buy any plastic tubing to increase the height of the water: I used the pump as is out of the package. It's only been installed for a week, so I may change my mind and add a small tube. If I do that, I have to be careful because I don't want to make too big of a splash so the water doesn't need replenishing as often. (The bird bath was not purchased at Home Depot.) In this picture, the seashells are moved over so you can actually see the electrical cord that's normally hidden; this may be helpful in seeing the size of the electrical cord.)

The pump works beautifully, just what we needed.

My wife and I were at a flea market type event in our RV park winter home in South Florida where we saw this awesome terracotta bowl covered with seashells embedded in grout - and I immediately said - that would make a great little water feature - so I bought this pump and the fountain kit, 4 LED multicolored light strips with controller and a bunch of glass beads and viola!

i purchased this to replace a birdbath fountain pump. Works much better than the original. The original had the wrong tubing with it, The Home Depot specialist helped me with the entire purchase. He found this pump on line, since it was not in their store. I'm loving my fountain, far less maintenance than last year. I highly recommend this for any small submersible pump needed.

So far so good. It pumps the water nicely. I love the pressure regulator and is very easy to assemble.

We needed a pump for our Christmas Village Mountain Waterfall. This worked fine. The only drawback has been that the pump must be fully immersed to work correctly, and in our application, that means we must keep the water level completely full all the time, adding water at least once a day. Not really the pumps fault, but there you have it. It did allow me to regulate the flow which was necessary to get the right cascading water effect.

I got the pump home and it attached perfectly with the 1/2" PVC pipe I purchased to run a home made fountain/Hummingbird bath. The adjustable attachment allowed me to fine tune the flow.

The pump was very easy to install. Unpack, connect, plug in and enjoy. Although the previous one did not last long. Don't know why. It just stopped working.

starts for a brief time 2-5 sec then stops and won't start again. tried it it both vertical and horizontal positions What a waste of my time. Let's see if this is a item or a product problem - returning to HD for exchange

The pump was a really easy install. Choices in the connection. Pretty much plug in and go.

Small, quiet, perfect flow rate for my fountain. Low water shutoff works well and would recommend.

Great pump perfect for my application

Perfect for my specific needs.

My first pump burned out after less than 3 months. It didn’t run out of water, it just stopped working. Had to buy a replacement but extremely unimpressed

It works just like I thought it would.
