Too loud to relax

I had to send it back because it was too loud. I had an AP-100 so some noise is to be expected, but when it's in a closed cabinet, sitting on a mouse pad and competing with a TV in the same room or a fridge compressor in the next room, it's too much. . I've since replaced it with the Whisper 100, which is noticeably quieter but still doesn't whisper as much as the manufacturer claims.

Pros
  • GOLS certification
Cons
  • cushioning

Quiet and powerful air pump

I've been using this air pump with two air stones in a 35 gallon aquarium for about a week. So far I am very satisfied because it is very quiet. I thought the air adjustment would be very variable, but this is my first air pump with an adjustment, so I can't compare it to others. I would buy one of these pumps again at any time. The attached picture shows how much air comes out of the air stones at low pumping level.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Fine

Pretty good air pump.

Really good pump. I'm so glad I went with it. Especially for the price. I connected 5 different stones to it. One is a large bubble curtain, one is 2 inches and 3 are smaller, about 1 inch long in a 37 gallon tank. They all produce as many bubbles as I was hoping for and my dojo golden loaches love playing in all of them. If I ever need to replace my air pump I will buy it again. It's pretty too, which is a big plus I don't have a closet to hide it.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • I don't like anything, everything is fine

Better Products

I am VERY disappointed in this product. I liked it at first, it did the job, it wasn't very noisy but I definitely couldn't sleep with it at night. I bought two in my purchase but one of them ran out of power. The air comes out, but cannot create bubbles through the air stone. I've bought new stones and tried other filters and I know it's not the stones or the pipe. Really disappointed. I hope the company will trade it for a usable one. He doesn't deserve any stars

Pros
  • Quality Construction
Cons
  • Reliability
