Jebao PP333LV Submersible Fountain Pump, 66 GPH

I purchased this product to replace a previous version of the pump that was shipped with a PetMate Deluxe Fresh Flow water fountain/dish. The main difference between these two pumps was that the original had a dial knob that was used to control the water flow (see attached picture). This new one uses a slider inside the front "filter", and must be adjusted with the unit outside of the fountain/dish; this is not a problem once the right flow is determined. But I did prefer the ease of use of the original flow control. Note: The old front flow controller/filter could be used with the new unit, but it is not as snug as I would like. The only negative I can really state is that the rubber suction cups REALLY work well on the plastic of the fountain. Unfortunately, the downside is that when I have to remove the pump from the fountain to clean it (and I have to do that at least once a week, as my cats tend to drop food into this dish), the suction cups stay behind, pulling out of the pump. I never had that problem with the old pump. I have found that this is not too bad, as with the help of a jeweler's flathead screwdriver, I can pop them back into the bottom of the pump without much effort. I have read other reviews stating that this pump is very noisy; I have always found this pump to run silently except when: a) The pump is just turned on after cleaning and it still has air in it; I have found that after 15 seconds or so, the air is passed and the pump runs silently as expected. b) The front filter becomes clogged and cannot pass enough water; then the unit does get noisy. When normally running, neither I nor my cats are disturbed by any noises from this pump. I am definitely happy with the silent running of this unit. One other small "gotcha" with this new unit vs the old was the on/off switch on the cord the old pump had. This is a minor difference, as I rarely used it anyway, as I would just disconnect the cord from the adapter when cleaning the fountain anyway; an extra switch is just that, extra. Overall, I am satisfied with this replacement unit (which by the way, had EXACTLY the same model number as the old unit). It does the job, and it does it silently. And it fits my PetMate Deluxe Fresh Flow water fountain/dish perfectly, once I replaced the 1/2" nozzle with the 1/4" (smaller) one. My cats love using the fountain, and will no longer use a bowl unless the fountain is not available (i.e., in the dishwasher).

Installation was easy and worked great. After all this time, still works, cleans up easily.

Easy to install. It even came with an adapter to mate the narrower pump output to the larger diameter input line to my water appliance. The reasons I didn't give it 5 stars is because one, it took a unacceptably long time to get it to me and two, the power cord has no power on/off switch. I bought one at the Home Depot and installed it, but I shouldn't have needed to spend time and the $5 to add a way to turn it on and off without unplugging it.

This replacement pump for my Petmate Deluxe Fresh Flow drinking fountain, although the same model #, is slightly different but it works well. The white flow control lever on the old pump (which stuck through the hole in the fountain between the pump compartment & the water "bowl") has been replaced by a tiny sliding control nub on the face of the pump, only accessible before the fountain is assembled for operation (I would suggest setting it in the low flow position for the first time since it seems more powerful than the replaced pump). The ac/dc adapter power cord is about 14" long (note: 2 prior pumps I owned broke where the hard, very thin plastic power cord meets the cord "collar" on both ends... I suggest reinforcing this flex point w/electrical tape). The cord from the pump to its female end (where it plugs into the adaptor cord male end) is at least 4' long (I didn't stretch it out to measure) but is missing the dial power on/off switch of the last pump (although if you need it this is very easy to re-install onto the new cord if you are at all handy). If like me you are using this for the pet fountain, 2 things: make sure to keep the cord "clamp" from the old cord (the black piece that holds the cord in place where it exits the fountain's rear); and twist out the plastic 1/2" (outside diameter) "pipe/ nozzle" sticking out the top of the pump & replace it w/the smaller 1/4" nozzle (packed loose in the pump box w/no instructions w/it so you at first wonder what it's for) which fits into the water flow tube of the assembled water fountain.This is a cheaper option than buying a new Petmate fountain. After a few hours of use so far, seems more powerful & quieter than previous pump.

I bought this item to replace the pump in my Petmate deluxe fresh flow watering bowl. The pump recirculates water in the bowl, making it more attractive for your dog or cat to drink. Several years ago, Petmate substituted a different pump in later versions of the bowl---one which I found too noisy for my tastes. I was pleased to find the older pump still available from this vendor. When the pump came, I was a bit confused at first, because the nozzle on the pump didn't fit inside the "stack" in the fountain, a vertical column which carries the water up to let it flow down a slide into the bowl again. The diameter of the nozzle was too large to mate up with the Petmate stack. I emailed Amazon and the vendor responded almost at once, even though it was a Saturday. He explained that a nozzle with smaller diameter had been included in the shipment which could be swapped for the one the pump came with. (I had thought that piece was an adapter for some other use). The nozzle was easy to switch and now I can look forward to years more use of the quiet fountain. This is a good, quiet pump that lasts a long time, and the vendor service could not be better.
