Ratings & Reviews for Utilitech 115-Volt Thermoplastic Submersible Utility Pump

Good little pump!

Only wish I had is that this pump was automatic other than that it works great!~!~!

Hardworking and Reliable

This is the second of these pumps we have purchased from Lowe's, this one as a backup to a 5-year-old one that would cause flooding if it failed. So this one is the backup, and it pumps a lot of water through about 50' of 3/4" hose against an 8 foot elevation. It's quiet, reliable and really will pump down to about 3/8" depth. Clean water only though, and the instructions say "not tested for use with chlorinated water or 'water features and fountains.'"

1/3 utility pump

This pump works great would not think twice about buying again

A very pleasant surprise.

I bought this pump to remove water from the cover of our swimming pool. I had previously just siphoned the water off using a garden hose. I bought this pump because I needed to remove the water after a very rainy period. I hooked a garden hose to it, ran a heavy duty extension cord, and plugged it in. I had placed the pump in the pool leaf and debris net to prevent getting the inlet clogged. Within a short amount of time, and requiring very little effort on my part, the excess water was removed ...

Purchased 2, got 2 nightmares, quits many times

This product overloads quickly and frequently and can't be trusted to get the job done. I had to spend hours babysitting mine, making sure it wouldn't quit and need to be unplugged then replugged back in to work. I have bought 2 and they were both junk. At least the jerk that stole my first one will get headaches from his when he uses it. Why 2? I needed one today in an emergency to move some water and the one today was as awful as the first one. These pumps should be able to run on their own, ...

Champ of a product

I had a contractor come over to replace a part on my heater in my crawl space only to find a large amount of standing water (a problem for another day) Went online and found the product (Lowes even tells you what stores have it and what aisle its on) pulled it out of box and without reading directions i was pumping out water like with coming out of a spigot. Heavy duty and works like a charm.

Utilitech 0.33-HP Thermoplastic Submersible Utilit

We ran the pump for seven hours without a problem to remove the water from our basement after our sump pump stopped working. It was worth the price VS spending hours using a shop vac.

Fantastic water pump

Got this to remove the last inch of water in my pool, worked great..... have a 23000 gallon pool, just keep pushing the water to the pump with a broom, prbly took 1 hour, soooo awesome!!!

Life saver

It was pool closing time and my old pump crapped out! I went to Lowe's.com and ordered this one. I picked it up in an hour and all was well. I use it to pull the water off my cover now and it is a life saver. Portable, easy to use, definitely a great deal!

Very effective

Need for pool cover. Product works very quickly and water is gone!! Would be great for a sump pump, too! Cheaper and drains quicker than other products costing twice as much!! Don't hesitate to purchase, a wonderful draining machine!! Enjoy!!!!!

Good product for draining water

This is a submersible pump that will drain liquids. It works well and pretty quickly. It has a screen design on the bottom to keep solids from being sucked into the unit. Works well and quick. Seemed slightly pricey but all submersible pumps seem to be

REALLY WORKS....

I bought this pump on a gamble about four years ago (2012) to empty my swimming pool. I have used it every year to remove the water on top of my winter cover. At least twice I left it running overnight, only realizing the next day it was still running, WELL< little did I know there is an automatic shutoff, otherwise, it would have burned up. This thing is like a Timex watch, it just keeps on ticking. I would not hesitate to buy another one!!!!!

Quality pump.

I bought this pump to pump rain water out a low spot on my property. Does not clog up and I ran it for 11 days straight without a break. Still pumping with Zero problems!

Great little pump!

Bought this little pump to help with my pool during "El Nino". Worked like a champ. Setup was easy and kept my water level from cresting the top of my pool deck. Hopefully it'll last a few more years in my garage to help whenever we have too much rain.

EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED

We had excessive rains and this put over 2000 gallons of water in our basement. We previously had a water transfer pump but it burned up so we purchased this submersible pump. This little pump is GREAT. Not as powerful as the previous pump but you don't have to prime it, just place it in the water, connect the power plug and that's it. Highly Recommended.

Best $100 I've spent lately!!!

Our house has flooded numerous times this year and I don't know why I never thought of getting one of these pumps before. Several years ago the city decided to raise the street and that complicated the flooding issue...add that to no drainage on our street and when it rains we run for the shop vac! :(. Anyway, i got up yesterday morning to get ready for church and when my feet hit the floor....squish!!! We vacuumed out about 200 gallons of water and later in the day I decided to get a pump for t...

Submersible Utility Pump

If you have an in ground pool and its winterized, you have to pump water from the pool during the winter months. This is the submersible pump you will need. Pumps a great volume of water and is very dependable.

Did the job at hand.

Pumping water out of our basement was a breeze with this pump.
