Review on 🐠 Hygger Bucket-Free Aquarium Water Change Kit - Auto Siphon Pump Gravel Cleaner Tube with Long Hose: Efficient Water Changer Maintenance Tool for Fish Tanks by Agustin Pavoris

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent value for money and quality!

Even though this review is over a year late, all I can say is that the water change kit does what it says on the tin. I bought the kit with the longest PE pipe to use my garden hose as none of the faucets near my aquarium have a compatible spout, although various adapters are included in the kit. In addition, the longer hose also allowed me to pump water to my garden plants instead of directing it down the drain. The most important feature is the ability to switch from suction to reverse flow and pour water back into the tank by simply turning the ball value. My kit was purchased in 2020 and as mentioned, has held up well with the few water changes I've done. prior to this review where part of the siphon (tee) broke off trying to tighten the hose fitting. Totally my fault I may have overtightened the fitting. With that in mind, I suggest doing the same if you're considering buying this kit. Do not overtighten connections! The block is made of plastic. The important thing is what happened after the part broke. After a year of use I didn't think this unit would be under warranty but I emailed Hygger and offered to buy a replacement. To my surprise, they responded almost immediately, and incredibly, I received a free replacement in the mail the next day (email sent Friday, replacement received Saturday). Dollars and with the customer service experience I've had (YMMV of course) I'm very happy with it.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • No automatic
