Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Paul
This pump worked great for draining my pondless waterfall the only problem was that the discharge is 1 1/4 and the hose I purchased was 1 1/"2 so off to the plumbing store for a jerry rigged adapter. I would have like the pump to come with 1 1/4" to 1 1/2" after all the discharge hose that they recommend is 1 1/2".



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Not up to the task
When I bought the VIP Wayne 1/2 HP submersible pump it was to be a backup source of water, from my swimming pool, to control a possible house fire. In fact, the stream it produces won't even reach the the roof of the house. So much for Wayne pumps for fire protection.

Disappointed Amazon customer



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Works Great!
Previous pump (another brand) was worn out and we also wanted one with the hose connection not on the top. When the hose connection is on top, the pump tips over too easily. We use this to pump water off the solid pool cover on an inground pool. We hope this lasts as long as the last one.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - I was cheated
a hose was recommended for with a coupling that does not fit..
i called wayne and they said go buy one at lowes ...gee thanks



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Mary from Brookfield WI
I purchased this pump about 6 months ago. It is great. We have had very heavy, flooding rain here for days and our sub pump could not keep up. We used this pump and it kept the crock from over flowing and our basement dry! Thanks Amazon for having it, and thanks to Wayne for making it!
