Customer Reviews for BECKETT 430 GPH Submersible Fountain Pump

The pump does what it's supposed to do. My only minor knock is that it seems to produce weaker output on warm days, but that could just be some scientific thing for which there's no real cure (atmospheric pressure?). I don't know. Anyway, it was quick and easy to set it up. I wish that it had come with the little hose clamps for each end, and that the little plastic insert/adapters were made of metal. I haven't cracked one yet, but I always fret when tightening the small clamps that I purchased to fit on the hose connection, which isn't quite snug enough that I'd run it without securing it (with the clamp).

Works good, nit quite head press as advertised so buy up one size. Last one lasted for years as this was for replacement

I wasn't expecting to get more than a couple season out of a tiny pump like this. With just regular maintenance (rinsing, unclogging the intake, and clean before storing for winter) this little unit keeps running.

Works really well

It works great for what I need it for!!

Pump works well and gets the job done...It's the second one I buy as the first started making loud noises... I had the first one for several years so it lasts me for a while...

Perfect replacement for my 6 year old Beckett fountain pump. I hope this one last as long.

I had a Beckett pump for over 15 years. It finally died and I looked over the specs for other pumps. I have a fountain which requires a 5/8 inch hose and a side or horizontal discharge. It was very difficult to find one. I found this one. The discharge rotates to horizontal and it takes 5/8 inch hose. It comes with an adapter for 1/2 and 3/4 inch hoses. The best thing about buying a Beckett is that they are high quality and I expect this one to last another 15-20 years.

the best pump ever!

The pump worked perfectly for the fountain I have. As expected.

Works for me! For our bird feeder fountain this pump works as needed. It works in 1.5 inches of water and only needs to be topped off once or twice a day. The only other thing is that debris can clog the intake grill so it needs cleaning from time to time. I could burn out if left clogged too long or run dry.

Bought this for an old fountain i had , it fit perfectly and the flow is great . The multi function tip is great for all types of hose sizes . Good for double or triple tier fountains .

I needed a pump that would fit my fountains. The manufacturer gives you one when you purchase the fountain but they don't last long. This one works much better and is really pumping out the water.

Although the warranty is for one year, the previous pump lasted for 7 years, which made me buy the same exact pump for replacement. Home depot don't carry this model in stock, but ordering online was a breeze and I had it delivered to the store for pick up. The riser is made of a 1/2" PVC pipe that had to be honed at one end to fit the pump outlet, and a 1/2" PVC cap with several drilled holes to create the spray/fan effect. Flow valve was adjusted to half capacity and all works and looks great.

I had ordered this same model on Amazon two weeks prior and it broke down. Based on the gallons with extra added, I ordered this same product again from Home Depot. The pump is BAD...began by making a grating noise and now it pumps, but, for how long?

This is a replacement of the same product that failed after 6 years of operating about 12 hours per day.

I was searching on line and in-stores for a solar pump and could not locate a small device for the small water fountain as pictured. I decided on the electric version and located the Submersible Fountain Pump at Home Depot for the best price. The instructions were easy to follow, install was simple and it operated appropriately. I love the valve to adjust the amount of water pressure to release through the tubing to properly set the flow of water to your needs. I would recommend this product!

Works perfectly and quiet. Purchased to replace dead pump for a 20" indoor fountain. Used the same connections and had an added part that allows for flow direction adjustment. Very satisfied. Picture shows fountain running.

The water pump for my tile saw finally gave way and I needed to find a new one quickly. I searched online and The blue store had a few but all with bad reviews. The Depot had a few also and some decent reviews so I headed over and picked one up out of the garden section. This pump is for a pond or whatever but it came with multiple attachments that allowed me to connect my little 3/8 inch hose up to the pump. Not sure if the output of the pump is accurate but it does push a lot of water to my saw blade so I can get back to work, not sure if you will be able to see it in the picture but this pump is the same thickness as my last one so it gets covered by water easily, also puts a good amount of water onto the blade as the water rides the saw blade and "cuts" the water, just the way it's supposed to. I recommend this pump if you are replacing your tile saw pump, although I can't comment on it's performance as a fountain or pond pump.

I have a small pond with a stone waterfall,and the original pump/filter was not powerful enough for a fast flow of water , so by adding this pump, the water flow has doubled giving an authentic sight and sound to my waterfall

just what i neeeded. wife said ' buy it "..

I have it supporting a three bowl fountain with 4 foot rise. It provides a 4 inch head and feeds the lower bowls no problem.

Works well for my application to drain water from decorative fountain to water my garden plants. Suction cups work great to keep pump at bottom of fountain reservoir while in operation. Used this pump for one month. Good so far!
