Strong pump and very quiet. Great price too!
Great replacement pump for my fountain. I purchased the 400 gph (gallons per hour) and it works perfectly. I appreciate the variety of fittings to fit a few different sizes of tubing. I didn’t use the tube that was included, but it may come in handy for future use. I also like that the pump is very quiet. All I hear is the waterfall on the fountain.

Spooky season DIY fits perfect
Used this to power my puking skeleton decoration and it worked perfectly. Strong flow, quiet operation, and the tubing fits easily. Made the Halloween setup look way more realistic — solid, reliable little pump. Fast operation as well as easy to clean and install. Would definitely say this is a pretty good value for the money if anyone wants to use for a DIY skeleton decoration.

Don’t forget to prime the pump. It’s not a work horse.
It’s a relatively small pump. I bought it to remove excess water from the AC drain pan. At first, it didn’t do anything but after I tinkered with it, it worked great! I think it was slow to work because it need to be “primed” which is getting water in it to start working. Once I moved the little “door” on the side a few times and tried the pump a couple times, it worked exactly as I wanted. It’s not a work horse but for my project it worked great.

UPDATE: works just fine. PREVIOUS: Died after 5 months of gentle use
UPDATE: it didn’t die. I have it wrapped in a mesh bag to keep debris from nature out of the mechanics for extended life, and just so happens lots of stuff got clogged in the folds of the mesh bag. Cleaned it off and the pump can function again as normal. Works like a charm. Changed from 1 Star to 5 stars. -Good pump in the beginning, but started getting weak around month 5 as mentioned in the title - just long enough to make it past the return period. Barely a trickle coming out now. Ordering a new one but different brand. better luck next time, I hope

DANGEROUS
This pump worked really great…until it didn’t and almost started a house fire and injured my husband. We used this pump almost every day to replace 5-25 gallons of clean water in our aquariums. Almost 2 weeks after using it, we were doing a normal water change and my husband plugged it into the electrical outlet (same outlet we’d used it in daily) to start pumping water and the cord literally blew off of the plug end and the plug was hanging from the wall socket! I saw a bright flash (when it arched) and heard a loud pop and immediately looked to make sure my husband was safe. Thankfully he was not shocked/electrocuted (you can see the residue on his hands from the explosion) and the rubber tubing was the only thing running into the aquarium, so the fish were unharmed. My husband looked over the exploded ends and said there appeared to be a bad connection between the plug’s base and cord, and eventually it would have blown off if it hadn’t that night. He works with electricity everyday as a lineman and knows the dangers, but did not expect to be exposed to a dangerous arch at home when simply plugging in a water pump. Maybe we got a dud pump with bad wiring, but I feel obligated to warn others who may use this pump that this is a possibility and to use with caution. I’m now terrified to plug in a water pump, or any appliance for that matter!! Also, during the first few times of using we noticed little flecks of thin/chipped metal in the bottom of the bucket of clean water that were not there before we put the pump into it to pump clean water back into the aquarium.

Must have for large water changes
This thing changed my life. I use it to refill my tanks after water changes and it makes it so easy and less time consuming. I just fill a 5gal bucket toss this thing in and the tube into my tank and it only takes a couple minutes for my tanks to be full again. Water flows consistently and you can adjust it as well, although the lowest pressure is pretty strong.

Works well in outdoor fountains
Works, but the last one I received was a bit noisy. I have two pulling up about 2-3’ water in my fountains. I do like that they have a dry run option, as on overly windy days, the water dissipates on my one fountain with a steep drop. Unfortunately, They only last about a year.
