@PondEco they are, the most reliable submersible pumps Ive ever used. I've been using a MagDrive 500 and 250 on my saltwater aquarium and they have never given me trouble (the 500 is about 12 years old now while the 250 is about 7 years old).

If Pondmaster is one of the best then that's a pretty bad statement. In my experience I've found pond equipment to be some of the most poorly manufactured junk around. I might as well just dump it in the pond and let it run without any maintenance whatsoever considering how poorly the stuff is manufactured. I even had a CalPump die in a matter of hours and then saw its replacement die in a couple days. Many manufacturers don't even use stainless steel because of their low standards.
Pondmaster pumps are anything but reliable. I've had nothing but trouble with mine and Danner Manufacturing (the company that produces Pondmaster pumps) is a pain to deal with. They are slow to repair and don't even pay for shipping when their cheaply made pump fails to work.

I disagree, I've been selling PondMaster pumps for about 10 years now. The return rate is less than 3%. Danner Mfg. has a 5 year warranty on almost all of their pumps. (This is unheard of for a continuous duty pump). As far as returns, Danner Mfg is the easiest company/vendor I've ever dealt with.
