Review on πŸ’¦ WAYNE PC4.5 1/2 HP Cast Iron Multi-Purpose Pump With Suction Strainer, Model 55832 by Donald Vargas

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great rain barrel pump

Bought this pump to pump water stored in a 55 gallon rain barrel. That works great! It took me 1 1/2 hours to fill and empty the plant rain barrel with the water canister, but 10 minutes with this little gem. The water flow was just right, even at the top of a 20ft hill. Instructions are almost non-existent, but it just requires screwing in two brass fittings to add inlet and outlet hoses and attaching two rubber feet to the underside of the motor. Fill with water, then screw the cap onto the primary fitting, attach the hoses, open the nipple on the water butt and the end of the hose, plug in and you're good to go. This is a huge time saver and also a lot easier as I don't have to carry all those watering cans around with me! Hope it lasts for years.

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • Not bad but...
