Pros & Cons
Pros
In my testing it is perfectly capable of emptying a 5-gal bucket in 30 seconds. The suction is strong and pumps water out very quickly.
Great tool to have for general preparedness. No complaints at all about this pump.
Construction is quite sturdy, no issues with the hose that some had reported broken.
Cons
The length of the out hose is barely long enough to move water away from any boat or area needing removal. The discharge hose is way too short (about 17 inches) it leaks a crazy amount of water where the hose connects to the pump.
Useless to me as very difficult to pull/push the plunger thru' the curved barrel. What junk. Just received it, and it's damaged.
