The pump worked fine for a couple of hours. Then when I turned it on, it just hummed a few seconds before it came on. Eventually, it would not come on at all. If you get one, think of it as a disposable pump with a life of no more than 20 hours.

I read all the reviews on this before I purchased it. Since a good portion of the complaints I saw were priming related, I decided I would check it out for myself.When you look at the documentation, it states that:"The intake pipe must be slightly angled up towards the intake mouth to avoid the formation of air locks."I did not have an angled 1" to 3/4" adapter so I went ahead with my straight adapter. It seems to work fine.The manual also states that you MUST:"Always fit a foot valve at the end of the intake pipe." -- I don't think I read any reviews that mention this.I used an old brass 3/4" one way valve with a paint gun strainer and a garden hose adapter as my foot valve. So it goes strainer, valve, garden hose adapter, 10' hose, garden hose to 1" adapter, pump.With the foot valve in place you only have to prime the intake hose. You can either disconnect the hose and fill it, topping it off at the prime/fill port or fill the entire thing thru the prime/fill port. Once this is done the pump will start moving water immediately after being energized.After shutting it down you can pull the intake hose out, move it to another water source, hang it up, etc. It shouldn't leak any water and the entire hose up to the pump (at least) will stay primed. You can also disconnect it and drain the pump housing if you need to.The manual also states:"It is advisable to fit a non-return valve between the delivery mouth and flow rate adjustment gate valve to avoid dangerous water hammering in the event of the pump suddenly stopping. This measure is compulsory if the delivery water column is over 20 meters."I am unsure what, exactly this means. I will update this when I find out.I am waiting on some quick connect fittings for this pump and will update with some photos of the setup when it's done.I can't make any assertions about longevity yet but so far I would recommend this pump to anyone looking for a small, light, quiet pump that can move a good amount of water.Edit: I've used this pump 2 to 3 times a week for clear water and I just spent two entire days using it to drain water heater sediment water (saved me untold pain lugging buckets). I also used it to pump out wet/dry vac canister after vacuuming up water. Works great! I've found you can also open the priming screw while it's running to clear air.Edit 2: i have been using this pump for over 6 months. I still haven't had a problem with it. It's gets used for about a half hour every 3 days. Still runs like a champ.

A lot of comments say that this pump did not work and it might be the users' errors. I bought this water pump for my rain barrels. It did not work initially when I first tried for couple of times. Since the pump has 2 identical 1" pipe threads and since I wanted to use 2 sets of garden hoses, I bought 2 sets of adapters at Home Depot (Search for "887480020793" and "887480017090" at HomeDepot.com or Home Depot SKU #799321 & #878041). I figured out that the reason why the pump did not work initially is that the way I had setup did not meet the pump's manual requirement that intake line size must be 1 inch or above, and my intake line of 50-ft garden hose was too small; I even primed it through the top screw but it did not work. I changed out my intake line with a 6-ft garden hose and the pump has worked like a champ.For wiring connection, I use a computer power cord since the water pump power cable size is 3 conductors 18 AWG and most computer power cord has the same cable size. I cut the computer power cord's end off and crimped it with the pump's built-in power cord. Before I crimped the wiring connection, I put 2 layers (2 different sizes) of heat shrink tubing for each wire, and I put 2 layers of heat shrink tubing on the overall crimped connection for safety and duration.I will update this review when the pump has any issue or stops working.

Very noisy, seal bearing between the motor and pump gave out after one summer of occational use, worked well wen new, suggest light occasional use and don't lease it in the rain, it will turn to rust immediatly.
