This video review was made by my husband.
He purchased this on Amazon and is very easy to use and fast.
He made this video review because there is too many people who say they cant get it to work, and its just too simple!

This, at its most basic, is a foot valve at the end of a hose. How it works:
1. The foot valve prevents liquid in the hose from flowing out that end.
2. Each time you push the end with the valve down into liquid, more liquid enters the hose but cannot flow back out.
3. When enough liquid has entered the hose and the top of the liquid in the hose is below the valve (the end in the liquid) gravity takes over and your liquid will flow into the an empty container which is at a lower level than the full container.
The proper technique then is not to "shake" the end in the liquid but to push it down into the liquid so that each time it goes into the liquid, more enters the hose.
The foot valve does not form a perfect seal when you pull the end out of the liquid, so a little will flow back out. The key then is to push it down and pull it out fairly rapidly.
Used correctly, this is a brilliant product which I have used frequently over the past 2 years and which my mechanic had previously recommended to me. And it is even cheaper now than when I bought it. The instructions suck though.

I haven't used this yet in a "real" situation (i.e. siphoning gas from a neighbor's car). But I did try siphoning water from my sink to my bathtub.
As others have noted, it was tricky to get this siphon to work especially in shallow liquid. But after a little practice, suddenly it worked pretty well.
I found it worked best when I moved the hose really straight in an up/down motion as opposed to just shaking it hopefully.
I think the good thing about this siphon is its overall simplicity. It's basically a hose, making it pretty durable and also easy to clean.
The downside is that the ball bearing inside doesn't create a great seal. Hence if you stop shaking the hose, the fluid will flow back into the source tank pretty quickly.

Great Siphon
This siphon works great. I use it to transfer gas from a gas can to a jet ski. It does not make a mess and is easy to use.
