Works well but note the cord profile

Just wanted to point out that the power cord is not round but has a flatter profile. Why is it important? Because the hole in the caulk at the bottom of my well is round and doesn't compress around the string to seal it. This is easily remedied by slipping a piece of rubber around the cord at the point through the eyelet.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Expensive

Great for replacing my wall mounted fountain pump - too big

I used this to replace a pump that was dying and had almost "too much" power. Water is ejecting everywhere so I left this pump loosely seated in the ejected pipe for now. An excellent pump from a well-known manufacturer. My only wish is that there is a way to reduce the performance even more.

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • Weight

Started well - now disables the GFCI that powers this area.

It started great. Good water flow, easy installation, reliable for my small water lily pond. Last week I found that GFCI worked. Restart and shut down after 10 seconds. I removed all the other elements from the circuit and put them back one by one, just one by one. This disables the GFCI for another 10 seconds. Nothing else works. No, the circuit is not overloaded. 20A GFCI on a 20A breaker with a total load of less than 3 amps. And the GFCI is not triggered by a load, only by a possible short…

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Disappear

strong!: Aquarium pumps and filters

This small pump has a large water flow rate and a small damper to regulate the amount of water. Line. I used it for hummingbird bathing. Update: 08/28/2019 After using it 3 times or days, I plugged it in on the fourth day and it didn't work. I removed the end to check the impeller and it was free. It just didn't work anymore. I will try again. after sending a bad one back. Update rating June 17, 2020 After I received my new replacement hummingbird bath pump, it worked until I took it off after…

Pros
  • Trial period for one year
Cons
  • Negative result available

Strong pump and quiet, flow cannot be regulated and aerator/oxygen function not well thought out

Powerful and quiet pump! Unfortunately, there are a few downsides that are big downsides to me: 1) The flow rate isn't adjustable. I had to reduce it a bit, I probably need this pump at 80% of max flow. Moving the slider didn't change much 2) I bought it mainly for the air vent. Firstly, when you plug in this attachment, the size of the plug becomes smaller and there is no plug to enlarge it again. The product description shows a picture of the pump with 2 nozzle sizes, the instruction also…

Pros
  • Everything is great!
