You need the correct amperage to run, you need to use the tape provided because it a bit smaller than 1" hose. Customer service was very friendly and quick to respond. I am able to use it without issue now. Great quality, easy to use, very good watering tool. I sure hope it lasts a long time. Thanks!

For a midsize pump this is very good. Noise is very reasonable and pump is reliable. I use it to drop the water level in my inground pool in the winter. Reason I gave 4 as opposed to 5 stars is that after two years (ie, out of warranty) and used maybe 10 times, I went to pick it up and the handle broke off. I contacted customer service and asked about a replacement handle, advised that I was willing to pay if needed. They responded that they would look into it. That was the last I ever heard.

In using this I noted something unexpected. It provides way more water pressure than the what comes out of spigot. We daisy chained 4 sprinklers together with this pump. Directly on the house spigot it doesn't work as the pressure is inadequate; but, this units seems to provide enough pressure to run 4 daisy chained sprinklers with no loss of pressure resulting in the sprinklers further down chain not getting adequate pressure.

Used from rain barrels to water grounds and power wash the vehicle. No problems. Good purchase.

This was an excellent pump for our garden.We used it to pumped rain water from the drum down spout next house down to about 100 feet to the end our property. This worked perfectly.I can tell the material is a heavy duty without any worry of breaking it for just 1 use. This pump will be use constantly to transfer water from one tank to another especially during summer.I will update this review next summer.

I used the pump to pump water out of the lake and irrigate my lawn and gardens. This pump works great. I thought it might need to be mounted on a base due to vibration but that is not necessary. I bought a 1” hose with filter and also a 1 foot cube mesh box to further filter lake water. Priming is straightforward. Didn’t get any clogs or debris from the lake into the pump. The model I got had a built in plastic filter as well. The water pressure was great. There is more than enough pressure to operate an oscillating sprinkler spraying appx 30 feet in both directions. This was at the end of 200 feet of garden hose going up a 10’ slope from the lake and another 20’ up to a side yard. Pump seems well built and sturdy. Didn’t get hot after 3-4 hours of continuous use. There were all adapters and accessories included in box.

Quiet and quick! This pump works well. I have not timed it, but seems to do a great job. Much quieter than my last pump. Time will tell if it holds up to long term use in the homestead and I am one to post follow up reviews!

I’m very satisfied with the service received from Fluently Power Cie. When I received the 1 HP pump it was not functioning. Only a humming sound. I contacted the service department to inform them of the situation. It was determined that the motor was defective. Within 3 days, I received a new pump. It is working like a charm, very good pressure. It was a very efficient and prompt service.

I purchased this to pump water out of a lake to water my new lawn. After priming the pump, it had petty good pressure, but sometimes the pressure drops. The stainless steel end bell of the pump is very thin. I used a stainless steel fitting in the suction inlet for the first few days and when I removed it, the stainless threads on the pump were coming out with the fitting.

It was a bit of a learning curve getting the pump set up but once you do it works great. I'm watering my garden from the lake so I have a pipe running to it that's about 30 feet long with a 15 foot incline. I had to buy a foot attachment to the bottom of the pipe where it sucks in so that it held its prime. This little piece doesn't cost much but it's needed for the pump to work or the water will just continue to run out. Once that's on I get my pump primed and it stays primed the entire summer season! Woohoo! What I find worked best to prime it was to fill the pump up with water, start it, and I'll hear it much in. I'll tighten up the cap and then I'll turn my garden hose wand open and closed to release air until it gains full water strength. It's been a great pump and saves on well water. Glad I purchased and I hope the tips will help anyone else struggling to get the initial prime.

If lasted about an hour. At first it worked well and was smooth and quiet. It didn't take long for the odd noises to start showing up. It started as a random squeak but quickly became like broken glass was inside it. It got super noisy then quit altogether. It appears a bearing failed right away.The quality isn't that great for $165.The quality of the 1" NPT thread tapping is poor. Take it from a former machine shop owner that the threads are not cut correctly. They are loose and oversized. I had a heck of a time getting the connections to not leak and I didn't fully succeed. I put the same fittings into the replacement pump which was a different style and brand and had zero leaks the first try. I don't believe it is built to last.

This pump works well for lawn and garden irrigation. It has already paid for itself - even if my town did not have an outdoor watering ban, I would have already paid more for water than I paid for the pump.The image shows the pump with 2 1-inch to garden-hose-thread adapters (WKUP F001 NPT to GHT Adapter - 1 NPT Male x 3/4 GHT Male, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B078KV2S93/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 ), and a 'foot' valve (Parts2O TC2503LF 1-Inch Foot Valve, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009ZTV3DK/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 ) that retains water in the feed hose when the pump is off. The foot valve is connected to the feed hose with another adapter and a female-female coupling (Gilmour Brass x NH 807734-1001 Heavy Duty Hose Connector Double Female Swivel 3/4 inch, 3/4-Inch by 3/4-Inch, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000FJYR5K/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 ). The image was taken as I was testing the setup in a bucket.In use the foot valve is suspended in an old washing machine tub, which is in a pond. Others have described using buckets with punched holes to avoid pumping mud and debris. My experience is that a standard garden hose does not collapse in use as a feed hose. Water is pumped through another standard garden hose to a lawn sprinkler. The pump provides enough pressure to run the sprinkler over an about 15-foot vertical rise.In my experience the pump needs to be well-primed and to be connected to a filled feed hose. On first use with my setup I fill the feed hose by submerging the whole hose in the pond. I bring the hose to the pump which I stand on its end. With the output side hose arranged higher than the pump I pour clean water in the feed until the pump chamber is full then connect the feed hose. When first working with the pump I didn't have the drain plug tightened enough and I wasn't getting good pressure - now I am careful to make sure all the fittings on the feed side are tight. In 'answered questions' the manufacturer says the pump is rated for continuous duty and that the pump is cooled by feed water. I have been running the pump sometimes 16 hours a day without a problem.Bottom line - highly recommended.
