This product has a "professional" grade starter suction pump which is very large and seems very sturdy without the need of using plumbers tape as the fit is very snug. Make sure to put on the tank clip prior to installing the siphon hose onto the siphon because it is a very tight fit and you cannot pull off the hose without a tool wedge.The 50ft hose helps quite a bit and is extremely lengthy; however, this product is easily adjustable by simply unscrewing the hose adapter side, cutting the tube, and reinserting the adapter back in as when it screws on, it grips the hose a bit. so if you do not need 50ft, you can simply adjust it as I did because I only needed a 35ft hose - excellent design and consumer-friendly by the way.The only issue I have is that the siphon is smaller than I expected (about 9" - 10") and works fine to empty water from larger tanks without draining them but this is not for use in a 55-gallon+ tank because of the length, especially if you have marine predator fish.It also does not really allow me to clean the gravel from my 55-gallon tank but only allows me to drain it, which caused a drop in stars (I need to purchase from a third-party a proper 20" siphon vacuum head).All-in-all the product would be 5-stars for 45 gallon aquariums or under, unless you just want to drain a larger tank without going too low then this product is a proper purchase.The product ships in its own box within an Amazon box and the shipping box is pretty sturdy that allows zero rattling or breakage.The price is good for this product because the product is very heavy duty as opposed to other models. I would recommend this product.

I never leave a review, but this siphon was worth it. Water changes for my fish tank used to be a long, heavy process. Now, it is easy-peasy. I can drain water directly into the tub and fill it back up by connecting it to the shower thread.The first time I used it, I experienced some leakage when trying to fill the tank back up. HOWEVER, I learned that I did not push the metal piece far enough into the green plastic. Put the metal piece into the green piece BEFORE hooking the metal piece to the water source. There should be NO space between the metal and the green plastic.No leakage since then.10/10. Worth every penny.

I have used the 25-ft version of this for nearly 10 years! I bought my first in 2015. Being an aquatic turtle owner for 15+ years, this product was a game changer! I went from siphoning then filling aquarium with buckets to one hose to drain then fill. It was one of those moments where you think to yourself, how did I ever do it any other way?! I adapted my shower to use fill option with the following:1. Shower Diverter - 1/2 IPS female water inlet, Two 1/2 NPT male water outlet2. Hex Bushing - NPT 3/4 to NPT 1/2 threadedNot the most attractive addition to the shower but it works great! Long story short, after moving my aquarium I needed a longer hose, so I bought the 50-ft. It’s just as good, but that’s A LOT of hose to manage and store, so I got this cord storage reel and viola! I can quickly drain to toilet, hook up fill with warm water, and finally wrap up to store easily! Hope this helps a few fellow aquarium enthusiasts :)

I like the idea to use this to do water changes and then refill the tank I think they did a good job thinking through the connections but for me I found it unusable and quite possibly due to the fact I have a larger tank.this might be okay used on a 10 or 20 gallon tank but the vinyl hose is too small in diameter to drain a larger tank as it takes too much time and not enough flow rate through the hose.I also had kinks in the hose during use several times just due to the weight of the water in the hose. these Kinks just compounded the lack of water flow and being able to use it.another minor issue is the siphon pump is a little too weak when it comes to priming the siphon. I think a more stiff bulb would help compare to the thin plastic used.for me and my larger tank I think I will attempt to build my own using 3/4 inch hose with a flow valve to regulate how fast the water gets siphoned out.I hate to give this product a bad review as I like how they implemented the quick connectors and adapters with a siphon bulb but I think it's a case of you get what you pay for and I would gladly pay double for something more robust and faster evacuation of tank water.

I used the Laifoo siphon today. I like how it hooks together. seems safe for long turn use of going back and forth between filling and removing water. I pumped the pump maybe 10 times to start the siphoning, And it works fine. The tubing is about one-third that of the python. so it takes 3 times longer. But that is not a big deal to me. It is nice not to waste as much water as I use to with the python. "you have to turn the cold water on full blast to use it for removing water! You can sometimes disconnect it from the sink and let gravity take over, and run the water outside, but I lost my suction 1 out of 3 times I did that and had to start all over... Possibly user error?The sink attachment doesn't fit my sink, so I did not use the Laifoo to fill my tank, But It should be fine after a trip to home depot.

Takes a while to drain tanks with the size of the hose. Takes no time to get water starting to flow using the hand pump. Overall good purchase and saves my back from hauling jugs of water to and from bathroom. Fits hose fitting perfectly. Would buy again no questions asked.
