the one i bought only lasted about 2 weeks (the case seals were defective0 , and the warranty is no good here either because the manufacturer in chine will not respond to emails ! I would suggest looking into Nemo Solar pumps. I had 1 in a well for about 2 years before it failed due to corrosive water , however the newer ones have plastic cases which should solve that problem . Installed another nemo ( the plastic case ) about 6 months ago and it doing a fine job pumping about 200 gallons per day for cattle water . I highly recommend them even tho they cost a little bit more than the farm and ranch . The farm and ranch will only barely function on 12 volts also. the one i bought only lasted about 2 weeks (the case seals were defective0 , and the warranty is no good here either because the manufacturer in chine will not respond to emails !

I would not recommend the Seaflo pump unless you need to pump bilge water from a boat. I would not use it in a well, because it is not designed for high pressure, despite what the advertisement says. I bought two pumps, sold one to my customer, and he installed it in a well where the water was 100 feet deep, and the pump failed after four months, and I had to replace it with a better quality pump. I took my second Seaflo pump apart, compared it to the motor in the better quality pump, and found that the Seaflo motor is not heavy duty enough, and it works too hard and overheats when it is a well pump.

they warrant for 1 year but it WILL break and they WILL NOT be able to fix it. do not buy the intelliflo variable flow pump. buy a variable speed only. it will also only run when it chooses to, no errors, just stops, but will restart. not reliable for a vacation. great when it is working, simply too bad such a great design has so many firmware problems. i would not buy from them again tho.

I live in a RV full time. I bought this pump 2-3 years ago and I use it at least once a week. I pump about 5 feet up into a container in the back of my Pick up. The pump does a very good job and I'm happy with it. You can buy with confidence from Amazon because they make returning a product easy. Every time I wanted to return something I did with no problems. I'm disappointed in Amazon because they moved their call center off shore. Not only is it hard to communicate with the operators they are cheating Americans out of jobs. Don't they know without a job we can't buy from them because we have no money. I will stop or slow down buying from Amazon for this reason.

I agree. I bought it in USA but I am from Argentina. I could use it five times only and then It has never started again. The warranty is only in USA.

I had to replace the spare parts on mine after about 6 months of very heavy use. It's also good to have a spare parts kit on hand just in case anything happens. Not fun to be stranded without a functioning pump! Loved this pump. It served me well for a year of heavy use and is still going strong.

Hi, I have never had a problem with the pump. I would say that it was an isolated issue which happens with most products. Mine works incredibly well.

I haven't had any problems with the one I purchased. It appears to be in great shape and we are using it in a commercial facility so it gets a lot of use. The seller I purchased from offered a 12 month warranty so I can take advantage of that if necessary. I called them before buying to ask about the warranty and they were very easy to reach and had very friendly staff. Just make sure that the one you choose to purchase has contact information and give them a call if you'd like.

This pump is designed to last ~100,000 miles, and has a lifetime warranty.-Sean

What I have learned from the process of replacing the pump is that the oil-less pumps are pretty disposable. You pay about another $100.00 for a similar powerwasher that has an oiled pump and it lasts forever, but that the grade of Power washer that these pumps replace for is not reliable. I bought the replacement pump last year so I have no idea whether it will give me more than one year, and it is still too cold for me to use it yet this year.

Pump comes with a 60 day warranty. 1,2 & 3 year warranties are available to buy.

I have not used mine as frequent as you are asking but it appears to be a well built commercial grade vacuum pump. My guess would be that it will last quite well for a pump in this price range.

Yes, It's very durable, and I found it easy to pump up. It will loose air after sitting a while, but the pump is easy and works well. I take it out on the Guadalupe River, and it's perfect! Not a speed boat, but I don't go fast anyway! Love it!

I would not recommend this pump to any one cheap made and the company told my that because I bought mine from amazon they will not honor the warranty I only had mine about a month before it broke I guess you get what you pay for

Yes, the pump does have a warranty (don't remember how long). Certain actions will void the warranty but installing it yourself isn't one of them, as I recall. That would have been a dealbreaker for me.

This is not a pump. It is a sand filter only. I think it is a 1 year warranty, but I don't remember.

I believe it is just a one year warranty. My original pump was warranted for three years and was replaced under warranty after two years. Jim Fling
