Device works very well and handles a fair amount of small debris along with water. Large discharge hose is a little cumbersome to work with but it does work well. Attach your water hose, turn on faucet, and suction is created.
You have to constantly reposition yourself and the hoses to try and suction from the edges of the pond. How one would even use this without attaching some type of handle or other suction tube is beyond me.
The solar panel is very cheap and will lose power the moment the sky is cloudy. Sun goes behind a cloud the pump shuts off. Easy to install but had very little spray if any.
