What Customers Are Saying

This water pump is generally effective and affordable, with strengths in its ability to quickly drain large volumes of water and quiet operation, but also some weaknesses in durability and design issues with the hose fittings. While it can be an effective solution for many water removal needs, users should be aware of the potential quality control and reliability concerns.

Got the job done

Would Recommend

Used the pump to clear water out of a flooded basement. Although the claim of 30 gallons of water moved per minute might be a...bit optimistic, the pump was easy to set up, efficiently removed the water and was quiet in operation. Glad I made this purchase and was able to do same-day pickup at Lowe's.

Output grossly overstated

Would Not Recommend

Advertised as 30 gallons per minute (GPM). Actual output was about 5 gallons per minute- at a 3 ft lift. I’ve bought pumps in the past and know the one must take the advertised output and divide by three to get true output but this one at 1/6 actual flow is absurd.

Submersible water pump.

I love the fact that it is submersible. Excellent for draining spas or swim spas.

Cheaper than hiring someone

Pumped 2000 plus gallons out of my crawlspace after a flood, in a short amount of time.

Buy a better quality pump

Would Not Recommend

It is not worth the money spend a little more and buy a better one. The cheap plastic threads were stripped on the first day. I am returning it.

Best pump for the price

Would Recommend

I bought this pump to do maintenence on our instant hot water heater (to run vinegar thru the system). This along with a hose set for a washing machine, a 5 gallon lowes bucket, and some vinegar, and we are good to go!
