Would Not RecommendDid not work. I even filled the hoses with water first and it still did not work. A piece of trash. Absolutely no suction or push on either side.

Absolute trash. Doesn't work at all
Would Not RecommendSorry I didn't read the almost universal negative reviews. This didn't work for even one second. Tried priming it and everything. Back it goes to Lowes. A totally wasted trip.
Piece of junk
Would Not RecommendTotal waste of my time running to Lowes to buy this piece of junk. Now I have to make another trip to return it.

Not a solution to any problem requiring a pump
Would Not RecommendAfter about 10 minutes of continuous drilling, i was able to transfer about 6 oz of water. Would have been faster with a spork. The plastic tubing it comes with is tied in a knot and crimped. The pump part leaks. This has like 120 one-star reviews, why is it still on the shelves?

Take the advise of others, no good.
Would Not RecommendJunk, could get it to work, even with a flooded suction. Had an emergency, ended up using buckets and cups.

junk
Would Not Recommendit wont pick up a prime no matter what i do... its total junk

Garbage, doesn’t work
Would Not RecommendFlat doesn’t work. Based on all the other reviews I’m shocked Lowe’s carries this still. Waste of time and a trip, very disappointing.

Very Poor Quality
Would Not RecommendAs my title said, it is very poor quality. I followed the instructions and the pump did not perform. Even with no suction lift, the pump would barely pump water. The hoses supplied are folded and kinked and had to soak them in hot water to get the kinks out. I do not recommend.
