I am very pleased with this product. First I got it quickly and it was very safely packed. But most important it worked exactly as it should. I placed the tip of the siphon cylinder in the patio fountain that needed draining, anchored the open end of the plastic tube below the bottom of the fountain with a brick, and pulled the handle all the way to the top. The water started to drain immediately. There was a bit of air in the flow, easily seen through the clear tube, so I pumped down then back up all the way and the water filled the tube completely. I then set the siphon carefully down and walked away. Thirty-something minutes later the fountain only had a quarter-inch of water left. I'm very pleased. I won't use this more than every month or two, but the siphon seems reasonably sturdy and I believe it will last me for years.

I have had to use this pump a couple of times when the gas cans were empty and I didn't want to drive 10 miles to get gasoline just to finish the lawn. It is simple to use and works great

I've used this about 10 times and I'm pleased that it doesn't leak. It's all heavy plastic and is well-made. I wanted a very long hose to fill a container above my head and it was easy enough to tug the original hose loose and replace it with one from Home Depot. And I'm surprised at the good volume of liquid it moves.

Insert the hose into fluid and a couple pumps. Leave the handle extended after pumps and the siphon action does the rest. Construction of the device is not cheap and seems to be well made. Can siphon many different fluid types.

I wouldn't use it for pumping out a whole boat but it works well for small amounts. It's also a good transfer pump.

I needed a transfer pump and picked this up. I tested it out this summer and did exaclty what it was supposed to without spilling a drop...you have to be sensative to the fact that there is a little gas in the line so you can't just pull out the tube and whip it around as soon as you are done transferring the gas..but with a little patience it is a "no mess" pump.

I got sick of cheapie products that break on the first use and decided to pay up a little more. This pump works great! Apparently you get what you pay for...

I would give this product a very good rating. I have used it one time with very good results. A very easy way to transfer fuel. Its worth the money. Remember to pull hose out before filling container is full.....there will be some fuel left in the line....this will avoid spill overs....thanks

I love it! Best siphon I ever owned. I wish that I had just both this one first instead of dealing with the inferior siphons that I have gone through. I could tell with the very first stroke of the pump that this was a well made siphon. I particularly like that I was able to cut the hose to the lengths that work for me. I can recommend this siphon.

These things are great. We use them for water filtration systems, amoung other things. Thanks. We will probably buy more.
