Luther R.: These worked great for my diy rain barrels. They are on there second summer in MN at the bottom of a 55gal drum, I just turn on the pump with a garden hose attachment and water our garden.

Molly G: The amount of water this thing pumps is crazy! Bought it to drain my outdoor pool. The problem is, because of the float mechanism, it stopped when there was still 4 inches of water left...we had to trick the float so we drain more. Had to shop vac the rest, which wasnt the most convenient. The previous pump we had let us get all the water out except for where it pooled in a few uneven spots on the bottom. Nevertheless, Id still buy this again...very well made.

Texas farmerTexas farmer: This is a great pump for rather large volumes of water. I have successfully used other pumps (see picture) but two virtues of this pump are it claims to pump dirty/muddy water (other pumps tend to clog) and low price. This type of pump with a large diameter hose (see picture) pumps much more water than when used with a garden hose. I use this with a quick "Banjo" connector. The used a flexible connector from Lowes (see picture) to connect the pump to the Banjo connector. The float needs to be propped but it still only pumps down to a few inches. I use this to pump for a low spot in my yard.

Danielle: Had this product been assembled correctly, it could have been a good unit. It turned what should have been an inexpensive DIY job into a nightmare. Had a lot of rain and needed to pump out cellar. The first issue was the adapter for different hose sizes. They should have just put in several different adapters instead of trying to save money by making it into one unit because what could have been made useful by dealing with floods and gardening, you cant connect the smaller hoses unless the adapter is cut which means if you want to use it for more than one project, your going to have to buy the extra parts separately. That's not why the one star. The one star is because the company assembled this and had QC stickers which is supposed to mean the unit got tested, but obviously it never was due to what happened next. After plugging the pump in, and standing back to watch it work, water started spraying out of the seal, or where a seal should have been in the first place and my luck, hit the power box which meant I could not walk into the water pump to unplug it or use the breakers to shut the power off. Being the cellar has only one window near the breaker box,...

Jessica A. Martinache: I will update this review later after I've had the pump for a while, but so far it's been great. I've put it through a lot, pumping dirty water, through a long (75' hose) uphill and I haven't had any problems at all. Not using it as a sump pump, I'm a landscaper and been using to pump muddy water & mud and I am very impressed. I didn't want to use my expensive pond pump for this, because I was worried about it clogging up. I am so happy with it I plan on purchasing another one. I did take the precaution of pumping some clear water through it after pumping the really muddy stuff, so that may have helped. Overall, I think this is a great pump. Pond pumps of this capacity (that are not recommended to even pump really dirty water and clog up with larger particles) are much much more expensive, and really don't perform any better as far as this one has. So the price of this unit vs. my utility servicing pond pump (designed for waterfalls, etc but I mainly use it for cleaning ponds) which cost around $750 doesn't do any better. I think the more expensive pump (should) have better head pressure, but for what this pump has done for now, all I can say is WOW!
