Our backyard pond is home to a few water-polluting Koi. In order to keep the water healthy for the fish, we have two separate pumps. One is located inside the skimmer box and pumps water to a mechanical/biological waterfall. The second one is located on the bottom of the pond and pumps water through a UV Sterilizer and then through an above-ground biological filter before emptying back into pond. Our purchase of this Danner 3000GPH pump is as a replacement for our skimmer pump (a Laguna model that suddenly stopped working after 7 years of dependable service). Since that Laguna model has now been discontinued, we searched for another reasonably priced pump that would fit into the smaller confines of the back section of our skimmer box. The Danner Waterfall Pump is specifically intended for this purpose and is very economical. We assumed the GPH (gallon per hour) rating was consistent among pump manufacturers and so we initially ordered the 2000GPH Danner pump in order to match the pumping strength and water flow of our previous model. For those people who are just beginning to get into pond set-up, you do have to make some calculations/considerations for the necessary GPH if you have a waterfall. If the pump has to move water to a considerably higher area or through a longer length of buried hosing...then you need to increase the GPH. BUT, if the water rushes too quickly through the mechanics of the waterfall, the bacteria in the biological filter doesn't have time to do its thing. Our previous 2000GPH pump was just perfect. It gave a nice, splashing amount of water coming from the waterfall...but didn't rush water through the filter too fast.

The GPH didn't begin to compare though. While the new Danner model was easy to set up, the amount of water coming from waterfall was only a bit more than a trickle. Really lackluster. So we returned the GPH2000 for the GPH3000. Works great now. The water is now pumping at the rate of our old GPH2000 model. We've only had experience with Laguna pumps so are not really sure if this is just an issue specific to the manufacturer of the Danner pumps or if the GPH can vary that much by manufacturer. If two different units are advertised as pumping 2000 gallons per hour; logic would say that the water flow should at least be similar, right? A mystery. Anyway, the new pump is working great so far. I would have given a 5 rating for the ease of set-up and the good value of this pump...if not for the issue with the incorrect flow rate. I'll update this review if the pump turns out to be unreliable.

UPDATE (February 2, 2013): Well, less than 6 months later...and the pump is dead. Our initial rating was 4 stars because of how well it worked; but feel now that it doesn't deserve more than 1 star with the durability/longevity problem.

I bought this pump and used it about 8 hours per day in my pond for four weeks. Went out one morning and found the pump wasn't working, I checked the gfi and found it had blown. I tried to reset it and it wouldn reset. I unpluged the pump and then could reset it. Thinking my gfi might be old I pluged the pump in direct to see if it would run the motor humed but wouldn't run. The motor has shot. I checked it with a volt ohm meter and found the motor was bleeding to ground. So $150.00 bucks plus shipping down the drain. Mine could be an exception and it did work well for the four weeks but wouldn't by another one.

The pump was my "go to" pump used it on my various filters my prep external filter in the Spring to get the pond ready for the season, then later as the waterfall pump. Used it for October, put it away for the Winter, then pulled it out again for the next year. So I used it for three weeks, stored it (indoors, after cleaning it) then used it for March, April, May and June. It died in the middle of July. I took it to a local pump repair business the starting capacitor was blown, and would cost more to replace than the pump was worth.

I've stuck with other pumps since then, usually a Tetra with a 2 year warranty. Had one of those go bad after two seasons but in warranty and it was replaced by the manufacturer.

Honest reviews on Danner 02660 3000GPH Magnetic Drive Waterfall Pump

Using this in an application that is kinda tricky. It is sending water up my homemade stream roughly 10 feet into a 3" pipe. This exceeds what it is supposed to be able to do. Yet it was able to perform great. It goes on every night, runs for 8 hours, then I turn it off. It has been performing flawlessly.

Reviews of 12000 - BTU Propane Stove Heater

Customer Ratings:

I find this heater to be adequate for my purpose which is to heat my RV during the winter. I use this unit for the front and an electric heater for the rear. Together they provide enough heat although our temps have only gotten down to the mid thirties so far. Manufacturer suggests using it for fifteen minutes outside before putting it in a confined space but I found that it took several uses to burn off the toxic-smelling paint used. Easy to use but plan to spend as much on venting material and gas hoses/hardware as you did on the unit itself.

Buy Ceramic Honeycomb Catalytic Combustor (CC-251 / 1P346) for VERMONT

Customer Ratings:

We bought a Condar replacement catalytic combustor in 2005 for our Vermont Castings Intrepid II wood stove. Previously we did not have good luck with a new replacement catalytic combustor (more on this later). Our stove was built in 1983, it was the first model catalytic Intrepid II built. The life of the catalytic combustor depends on how much air the stove gets during catalytic operation. If it has air leaks from seams, the combustor only lives a couple of years, not six as advertised. I got tired of taking the stove to the barn and chinking it with stove cement to seal it up. After it ran a while, the stove cement fell out anyway. Operating the stove this way shortened the life of the combustor and the stove burned more wood due to the increased air fed to the fire. Lately I decided to chink up the seams on the stove body with aluminum foil. .. This did not last very long and required a lot of maintenance. Improved chinking made from length of stainless steel wire wrapped in steel wool and this all wrapped loosely with aluminum foil has proved to be a durable and lasting stove seam sealant. The old 1983 Intrepid II runs a steady temperature (550 to 600 degrees surface temperature, has no leaks and runs longer than it did when it was new (better seal). Stove cement is useless as far as I am concerned. It crumbles after a while from heat and the stove body flexes as it heats and cools, which destroys the cement seal. The method I describe for chinking the seam does not fail. I finally had to change the combustor because it did not work well anymore after 8 years. The new one performs beautifully. Try this trick, you do not have to move the stove, nor do you have to cure the seal, or smell the stink of the stove cement drying when the stove is first lit. When you take the combustor out and clean it, handle it lightly, be careful when you blow a little air through the combustor to get rid of accumulated ash and it will last a long time. Eventually you will have to replace it, though. I use a small wooden tool I made to chink the wire, steel wool, foil seal into the seams of the stove. It looks like a large straight blade screw diver made out of wood. The blade is about 1 to 1.5 inches wide. This does the chinking job nicely.

Good luck with your wood stove.

Best Everlasting Glow LED Ivory Pillar Candles, Remote Control, Set of Deals

Customer Ratings:
List Price: $32.00
Sale Price: $26.78
Today's Bonus: 16% Off

I bought four sets of these flameless candles (one set for each side of our fireplace mantle, and one set for each side of our dresser).

Each set includes the batteries for each candle (three AAA's per candle), and the button battery for the remote. They are shipped with thin plastic tabs protruding out of the battery compartments of the candles and the remote to keep them from activating while being shipped. Just pull out each of the tabs (you don't need to open the battery compartments to pull them out), flip the switch on the bottom of each candle to the "ON" position, and the candles light; they can now be operated via the remote. (One remote will operate more than one set of candles that is in range of the remote.) (The instructions say that if the candles won't be turned on via the remote for more than a week, it is recommended that--since they do use the batteries a little when the switch is in the "ON" position--that they be switched to the "OFF" position.)

I bought these for their safety, decorative appeal, and to use when we have a power outage (which, ironically, happened two days before these arrived).

Safety: I enjoy candles, but have not burned any since an acquaintance of ours tragically died after she received full body burns when the robe she was wearing caught fire from her burning candle. These flameless candles provide the ambience of candles without the risk of fire.

Practical: The soft glow of these candles make them ideal to use in the middle of the night when you want just enough light to navigate a short distance (e.g., walking to the bathroom) without turning on a bright light that hurts your eyes, and causes you to become more fully awake, making it harder to go back to sleep. And, as mentioned above, these will be used when we have another power outage. (I'll buy some extra long life AAA batteries to have on hand to re-supply the candles in case we need to have them on for a long time.)

Beauty: They have an authentic waxy candle feel to them. They each have a soft glow, and the lights flicker randomly just like a real fire lit candle. I enjoy sitting with a cup of decaf in the evening and relaxing while watching their flickering glow; it is calming and soothing, and is an inexpensive way I can pamper myself after a long day.

I come from a firefighting family, so have always avoided unnecessary candles as much as I love them. Now I have candles everywhere, hooray! And firefighter-approved!

I've bought other brands of flameless candles before, but found them weakly lit, and short-lived for their little watch batteries.

But these are different. They're made of real wax rather than plastic, and they smell faintly of vanilla (nice touch). The're powered by AAA batteries, which means they last much longer than more some of the more expensive candles with battery-watch powered versions you find elsewhere.

The flicker rate is also much more pleasant on these than on, say, the ones sold at ThinkGeek. ThinkGeek's flash much more harshly...like, headache-inducing harsh. These Gerson candles are far, far more mellow and realistic in their flicker. Relaxing to watch.

And lastly, the remote control is a laugh riot! Surprise your significant other when he/she comes home to a dark house and then WHOOSH...candles everywhere, and you haven't moved an inch. Spooky. :) (It's also nice at the end of an evening to just click 'em all out, rather than having to make sure all the candles are safely out and fireproof.)

These are great. Look like real candles and can go in places you can't get to easily with the neat remote. Used for 2 weeks every night through the Cmas season and the batteries are still good, that's impressive to me. I expected to have to replace them. Very happy with this product.

Honest reviews on Everlasting Glow LED Ivory Pillar Candles, Remote Control, Set of

I bought two sets for my 89-year-old mother for Christmas decorating. The remote control feature is brilliant, and I love how they look. However, one of the six pillars does not respond to the remote control from a distance. It will respond if you move in close and click several times. That is annoying. My mom has limited mobility; the convenience of using the remote from her chair was the most important feature for her. The candles also have a stong vanilla scent, which may not please those who are expecting an unscented candle. Even with those issues, I will probably buy a set or two for myself.

Since my husband and I rarely use our see-through fireplace it looked so empty and frankly,--ugly. I decided to put a floral vine around some flameless candles atop the fire grate. A flameless candle is just another flameless candle, right? WRONG! I bought 3 very similar to these at a big box store and to turn them on and off you had to flip a switch. Getting into the middle of this massive fireplace is no easy task. Scratch that idea. Well, again I bought another set but with timers that automatically turn the candles on and off. That should work, right? WRONG! After setting the timers you have no choice as to when they come on and off unless you reset them--again diving into this fireplace. So---I spotted these here at Amazon and found the perfect set of candles. They look realistic---very important, but the big plus is the remote. I can turn them on and off with just a touch of a remote while watching tv or relaxing in the family room. I use them the hours I want to, not according to a timer or an on and off switch. Everyone who sees them falls in love with these candles. The best solution yet that I have found and by far, the prettiest.

Best Napoleon EF39S Electric Wall Mount Deals

Customer Ratings:

Buyer beware this is not a simple installation. We hired a professional installer who read the directions thoroughly several times. He understood the unit would need to go into the wall six inches in order to mount flush with the wall. We thought our wall was 4 inches deep. He built a frame but after making the wall cut, discovered an iron pipe behind the cut. He then started over with a new frame and was able to complete the install. The cutting, frame building and time needed to purchase new materials required 10 hours of his time.......no small expense. The remote did not work. The company responded saying they will ship a new remote. The flame presentation is lovely. One thing we did not know until we read the installation directions is that when the light bulbs go out, the entire unit must be pulled from the wall to replace the bulbs.

Our fireplace insert is no longer made, so we couldn't find a blower to fit in it. So, after a little bit of research by my husband, we bought two of these little blower fans along with a thermal switch and a variable speed control for it. My husband installed them, and the installation was a breeze for him; however, he is really knowledgeable about this kind of stuff. They work great and our fireplace is so much more efficient. The heat blows out into the room rather than staying by the fireplace.

Review of Single Panel Curved Black Wrought Iron Screen

List Price: $139.95

Today's Bonus: 28% Off

This product is cheap. Cheap materials, cheap construction and cheap looks. You certainly get what you pay for. The product, while one of the least expensive on the market, is not worth the expense. The light gauge materials cause the curved frame to "rack" leaving it looking warped. It looks much heavier in the advertisement. I do not trust this piece to stand up on its own and would suggest using tie-wire to secure it to some eye-hooks to prevent tipping. It is very plain, which is can be interpreted as a positive comment. No frills might be a better adjective. The packaging was awful. Clearly this was a retread from a return. Box was opened and re-secured with a single span of tape across the center of width of the box. Buyer beware!!

Simple , clean design and Inexpensive to boot. Works great in our mid century modern home.

Construction is adequate though the frame could have been a little beefier. Overall good product at a great price and not some traditional eyesore. Barely notice this is there when the fire is on.

This screen is decent. Although the quality is not stellar, it is one of the cheaper ones on the market, so you get what you pay for. However, I am returning it because the advertised specifications are wrong. The screen I got was only 40.5 inches wide. I realize that a half an inch is minimal, but it was enough to make it too narrow for our fireplace.
