## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good pump
*by D***Y on May 9, 2018*

I get a lot of water in my house's sump pit, so a couple years ago decided to install a drip irrigation system with an irrigation pump to make use of the water, rather than just pumping it into the sewer system. My previous irrigation pump failed after about 2 years and 110k gallons (see my Goplus 1200W Shallow Well Pump review). I paid a little more for this pump so hopefully it will last longer, plus repair parts are available (unlike the Goplus pump). It does the job and is reasonably quiet - no complaints. So far it has pumped about 30k gallons since installation July-2017.11/3/18 update: completed irrigation pumping for the season. The Red Lion pump continues to work perfectly, and now has pumped a total of around 65,000 gallons to irrigate my yard over the two seasons its been in service.7/14/22 update - still working great for my irrigation system. The last couple years it has taken a couple attempts to get it started in spring - plug in for a few seconds, unplug for a few seconds, plug in again. I assume the shaft has become somewhat stuck over winter, but it does start up after just a couple cycles.5/9/23 update - took multiple attempts to get it going this year. I plug it in, hear it struggling to start, then unplug it before it blows a fuse. I had about given up but tried it one more time and it started! Since it is sitting in water unused for about 6 months, I think something seizes up and it takes a while to break loose. Once started up, it works great. It has now been pumping water for over 6 years.10/27/23 update - just turned it off for the winter season. It is still working great - has pump over 200k gallons since install in 2017. I plan to alleviate the spring startup issue (mentioned above) by starting it up every week over winter, just to break loose whatever makes it hard to start in spring.5/14/24 update - started it about once a week over winter (just pumped water back into my sump pit for about 5 sec) and had no issues starting up this spring for my drip irrigation system. Still very happy with pump.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well pumping from a tank, plenty of pressure and flow
*by R***Y on July 15, 2016*

I'm using this to pump from an above-ground tank to a pressure tank and our house. It works well and is smooth and fairly quiet. Its designed to pump from a shallow well so this is an easy duty for it. The submersible pump in our 250-ft well was not providing enough pressure and flow when pumping directly to our pressure tank so now it keeps the storage tank full, controlled by a float switch. And this new pump provides plenty of water when we need it.It requires a 1-1/4" external check valve on the suction side. The 1" discharge doesn't require a check valve. There are two mounting feet at the flange between the motor and pump. I attached them to a short piece of 2x6 and put rubber feet on it. The pipes also hold it in place so there is no problem with vibration. It comes set for 230 volts but is easy to switch to 115 which I did, and attached a cord and plug to it.I was going to install a separate pressure switch but the one that comes on it works fine. It's a clone of a Square D pressure switch, and can be adjusted for higher pressure by turning a screw. Instructions are inside the cover. I would recommend this to a friend or even a total stranger.

### ⭐ failure
*by T***. on April 12, 2020*

Purchased last August 2019. Installed and it worked great in my un occupied house. Yesterday I tried to pump water but the motor just hums, will not start. Now I have to hope to have it replaced.
