 Forget about it. Jul 25, 2011
By indian maiden
The pump that arrived was not as pictured, but that didn't matter to me as long as the GPH was correct. I used it in a very small fountain and it didn't pump water any faster than my old pump that was only 75 gph. After working for less than a day, it finally...ran...down...to.....a trickle. So I returned it.

My first review was deleted. May 24, 2011
By Andrew Sansom

The picture of this pump and the actual pump are not the same. The cord is 1/2 the length stated in the description and the dimensions are not the same. After my first review I was contacted by the distributor and offered five dollors to change my review. The lady told me amazon.com chose the photo to display and it was not her fault the pump and dimensions were not the same as described. Classic bait and switch.

 Beckett M130AUL 7091510 Fountain Pump Jan 12, 2011
By Scott Alexander
Beckett seems to build a much better fountain pump than the others that I've tried. We have an outdoor fountain that can be hard on pumps (the wide temperature changes in Texas and the debris accumulation). The previous Beckett pump lasted far longer (I'd guess at least 5 years) than any of the other brands that we've tried.
I ordered another brand, and it wouldn't work after I installed it, so I had to return it. Thankfully, Amazon has a "no hassle" return process, but I wish I hadn't disassembled the fountain, run the wiring, reassembled, leveled, and refilled with water -- only to discover it wouldn't work. Then I had to disassemble again. Cement fountain pieces are heavy and bulky, in case you wondered. I bought another similar pump (different brand) from Home Depot and tested it in a bucket of water first, and had to return that one since it would only hum and not pump.
Finally, I've got a pump that works and have learned to stick with Beckett. I've also learned to pre-test the pumps before installing. The only problem I've found with this pump is that Amazon advertises a 15 foot power cord (the same length as my previous Beckett cord), but only a 6 foot cord was provided. I'll have to attach and weatherproof an extension to reach the power outlet. If this pump lasts as long as the previous Beckett, we'll be very satisfied.

 What you order is NOT what you get Jun 18, 2011
By Grit
Beckett 7091510 130gph Fountain Pump I ordered the Beckett pump specifically for two reasons--my past experience with Beckett pumps is that they are very reliable and also, this relatively low volume pump had a 15 foot cord which was exactly what I needed. To my dismay, when I received the pump, it only had a 6 foot cord. Reading other/previous reviews, I noted that another customer had made the same complaint previously. Guess I learned two things---read reviews in advance and do not necessarily believe the detailed description placed in the ad. for this to have happened to one customer is understandable--mistakes happen. However--when it happens to more than one customer over a period of time, it tells me that Pricebully does NOT consider customer feedback and attempt to avoid the same mistake down the road.

Two Times a Dud Feb 02, 2012

I ordered the Beckett 130gph auto off fountain pump. It arrived on time and as described. I placed it in the fountain, plugged it in, and....... nothing. I gave it a little shake, heard a faint grinding noise and that was it. I boxed it up and exchanged it for a second one of the same make. Amazon's return policy made it easy to exchange! I got the second pump in a matter of days. I again placed the pump in the fountain and this time was excited to see that it pumped. But, alas, my excitement was quickly dashed away when the pump stopped after a mere 3 seconds. But then, all of a sudden it started pumping after nothing for about 2 seconds. It repeated this pattern, 3 seconds on, 2 off, for bit before stopping completely. I am returning the second pump tomorrow and am currently looking for another brand of pump. My advice, stay away from Beckett's pumps.
