DannerManufacturing, Inc., Supreme Aqua-Mag 500 GPH Magnetic Drive Water Pump, 02515

Using inline as a replacement pump for an Intex pure spa. Noise level is acceptable and it's working as advertised. Provides better flow than the pump that came with the spa. Completely satisfied.Product description does not claim made in USA, but at least one review here makes that claim. This is not made in the USA, per the box (see pic).I'll update on longevity and whether or not this thing melts when used inline, as another review stated.UPDATE 8/24/2021: This pump outlasted the spa (inflatable). While no longer in use, this pump worked well for a year.--javasnow

I know they want a detailed review, but there's not a lot to say about a pump. The last one I had lasted many years and this one seems to be equally sturdy. Worked like a charm from the first moment it was plugged in.

This pump worked great when I first purchased it. Little loud but not a problem since it's for an out door small koi pond . The pump only lasted 5 months not working any more. My last pump lasted 3 years it was the same pump .when it did work it had great pressure pushing 300 gallons of water through an out side filter . The pump is submerged in water. I purchased the supreme classic model 5 500 gph magnetic drive . It has a max shut off of 10.5 ft 1/2 " fpt 1/2" mpt outlet . Had to change my original review on the product . Hope this helps

Moves water well under 3' of head. More than that and it loses flow pretty bad. Would make a great closed loop pump if you could plumb it with minimal head height.

The media could not be loaded.  I purchased an estate fountain June 2019 and this exact model pump came with it. I run it 24-hours a day for 9-months a year here in coastal SE. In April 2020 I thought I’d better have a “backup” ready to go when the first pump dies, so I ordered another identical pump from Danner. Again, that was April 2020. That second pump is still sitting in the box it came in, unopened!! My first pump is still trucking along, 9-months a year, 24-hours a day!! Im fairly good about cleaning the water manually of debris and leaves shooting to do once a week. But sometimes it goes 3-weeks before I can clean. All in an attempt to preserve the first pump but man it is still going!! So it appears my first pump is cruising to a 4-year life span, and maybe longer if it survives past June 2023! Full Disclosure: when I received my second pump I did take out the filter screen sponge thing and have swapped it out with my original one, so as to alternate them. Every week or two I put the cleaned dried one in and clean the other. That probably helps the wear and tear but still this pump is a workhorse!! Highly recommend.

The pump itself is great, works perfect and doesn't need to be primed. The problem I have is there are no hose attachments included. Who ever heard of buying a pump and it not coming with the connections. I am using 1 inch hose, and it's almost impossible to find 1/2" connections with a 1" barb. Would not buy this pump again just because it's to hard to find the hose connections.

Already own one Danner Supreme 500gph pump for use with the U/V light in our 5,000 gal koi pond that has been going 24/7 for a decade. Now buying a second 500gph pump to connect to a filter for our koi quarantine facility. Very happy with the durability and flexibility of these pumps. Also, just as an FYI, the pump does include a sponge pre-filter.

I actually bought this as a replacement circulation pump for my hot tub. It was less than half the price with just about the same specs. That was over a year ago, and it's still going strong, 24x7. A quality pump!

I bought this to replace a tetra pump that I bought for only a few dollars less. Lesson learned - it's worth it to pay more. The pump is really powerful to run my UV filter and so quiet - which is important when your aquarium is in your living room. I really like that this is made in the US - the quality is really there.I was surprised to see when I opened the box that it comes with a prefilter, which removes the fear of plants and baby fish getting stuck in there.The *only* thing its lacking is suction cups for the bottom (and somewhere on the bottom to attach them) to affix it to the side of a tank or pond. Right now mine is sitting on the bottom of my tank and I created a wall of val grass to cover it. As far as I could see, there is no way to attach this to the side of a tank.

It is exact what I was used last one. I keep it running 24hours a day and 7 days a week. The last one used for two years. I will update later when this one stops working.

Its like playing pump roulette,the house always wins.Save your money.

Great pump my old pump ran in fish pond for 26 years . I should have got the 750 model as that’s what my old one turned out to be

Worked perfect out of the box. Fast service.will buy again but bigger
