Aquastrong Sump Pump 1 HP 4500 GPH Submersible Water Pump Thermoplastic Portable Utility Pump High Flow Water Removal for Swimming Pool Garden Pond Basement Window Wells with 10ft Long Power Cord

This is a fantastic and powerful submersible water pump with some really nifty features built in. The automatic on/off float switch activates the pump when water levels rise and shuts it off as levels drop, preventing dry runs and making it virtually hands-off. There's also a clever integrated handle that doubles as a float holder, so you can override the float if you want continuous operation down to an inch or so of fluid height. The pump includes multiple discharge fittings to match different hose types, including a garden hose adapter, which adds a lot of versatility. I’ve been using it to drain an inflatable pool, and it works incredibly fast, much faster than expected. The long power cord adds convenience, and the build feels durable and reliable. A quick test in the bathtub even proved the suction and output are more powerful than I realized (maybe not the best test spot, unless you enjoy unexpected indoor rain) haha! All in all, this pump does everything I hoped for and more, and I’d definitely recommend for any draining needs!

Worked very well! It moved the water fast! I was going to rent one to drain my pool but wanted to go slow to minimize risks associated with draining an in ground pool. Renting would have cost me more. It took a long time for me to decide which pump to get. I landed on this one since I would only be using once a year. The instructions say to lower into the water at an angle to prevent air then you can lower upright. I tied it to a weight to grab when finished. I am really surprised that it worked so well and am happy with the choice.

Solid pump, drained my pool in about 3 hours, almost all 17,000 gallons. Great purchase. I rented a sump pump for $75 5 years ago, it already paid for itself with the first use!

Works great for my flooded driveway during heavy rainy season. The only negative is it only has a vertical discharge outlet which make it impossible to use flat hose. It would have been nice if it also had horizontal discharge outlet.

At first, I was disappointed the water coming out of the hose was a trickle, I ask to have another sent and return this one returned. They agreed that night I was thinking about it, and the next day I got a solid hose. It worked better than I expected. The hose I used at first was a flexible hose, that collapses when not in use. I notified Amazon to council the order.

I wish I would’ve took a picture, but it did an amazing job on getting the water out of our pool and it went below what it stated it would do.

It was shipped pretty fast, I haven't got the chance to use it yet, but I'm sure it's better than the 1/4hp sump pump i have now.

Pump working as it should, took one star away because this pump isnt moving 4500 gph. Got it to drain my33’ round pool. Started pump Thursday evening and it has about a foot left as I write this Saturday noon time. This is with an additional hose in the pool with a syphon suction on it.
