Great product and good value

Great pump powerful good water flow

In brief:This pump is effective, no-nonsense, and easy to set up and use. It feels robust, and does it's single job perfectly well for a reasonable price.Don't buy if:1. Your water pool is more than 1.5m from power2. The water pool is less than 3 inches deep3. You need considerable vertical lift on your water (i.e. from a pond to a high fountain)Buy if:1. You're after a no-frills, quiet-ish pump for water close to a socketDetailed review:I needed a pump which could help me setting up new aquariums, where I need to empty and refil a few hundred litres of water per day, and would otherwise be using a siphon and bucket. I decided to look into pumps to ease the load, and soon found myself looking at an entire range which all seemed to do the same thing (spoiler: they do). I picked this one almost at random based on it fitting my needs of flow rating (LPH) and generally having favorable reviews.I can't judge this based on how it would perform running a pond waterfall for example, but for my purposes it's been a dream. Simply attach the fixture and piping, dunk it into the deepest part of the water, plug it in and you're away. I've moved a few thousand litres of water a day using this and it's saved me hours. Even pumping water around 12 metres away (I bought a longer hose) and back when refilling.With options for 12mm and 16mm hoses, variable flow rates, and good quality suction, this should serve you well for most of your water pumping needs.The power cable is around 1.8M from plug to pump so make sure you are near enough to power by the time your pump is sunk to the bottom of the water pool. The top of the intake is a touch over 2 inches from the bottom of the suction caps, and given this moves the water on operation you probably need a water depth of at least 3 inches to avoid excessive air intake.In summary - does the job, I'm happy, and chances are you will be too.

The media could not be loaded. Having been asked by a friend to repair and make working a garden cascade (minus pump) that she had been given, I chose this item. It does everything required and does it well. It raises the water high enough and at sufficient volume. In my accompanying video, the pump is set to maximum flow and you can see that it is more than adequate. The inside of the cascade's base is not smooth enough for the pump's suction cups to anchor it, but it seems quite happy just lying on its side in the reservoir. I'm very pleased with it and can recommend it.

Excellent build quality and good pump. Repeat buy.

Having 2 water features over a period of time l initially bought 2 pumps. Regretfully one of 2 failed to pump . I then bought a third to replace the broken one. Although the most recent purchase works, one of the initial 2 has failed. I am now left with one pump which works, being the most recent purchase.Hopefully this will continue to pump.Understandably l will not buy another pump of this manufacturer.I will now search for an alternative

Bought to empty out a pond I had inherited. Now knowing it’s capacity I bought this pump given how cheap it is but in hindsight I should’ve gone for a larger pump as it just makes life so much easier. Whilst this pump performs perfectly fine & probably does deliver the output advertised (my pond is just over 1000 litres) it could benefit from a longer wire to make it more practical. You live and learn.Edit- Oct 2023 - pump had stopped working - currently in communication with seller. Removed 2 stars.

Small and works away in small;l pool
