VEATON 550W Submersible Water Pump with Integrated Float Switch, 11500L/H Automatic/Manual Drainage Pump for Rain Barrel, Basement, Pool, Pond and Water Tank

Been working for me for many months. Good quality. Reliable. The outlet pipe froze solid and I was worried the pump trying to pump though a blocked pipe would knaker it - but no - its still going.

Great pump. Built in switch makes it much more suitable than the floating switch types.

I was pleased that this pump came with a fitted plug. I was not impressed when I discovered that one of the pins was bent. Fortunately I have a big screwdriver which I was able to use to bend it back into it's proper place.

Still running well 3 years in. Woukd buy again!

Pump is very effective and arrived on time. It was required to be a sump pump sitting in a drain outside our kitchen door. Water pools there during heavy rain. A pump is required to prevent water level over topping the door threshold. When the water level is slowly rising it switches on / off every few seconds - about 20 times a minute. The pump needs to be operational for about 12 hrs each session so the motor will soon wear out. It is therefore not suitable for its intended purpose. ***update***The supplier made unexpected contact having read my review. They kindly offered a full refund which I accepted. This was excellent customer service and shows they are committed to ensuring customers are satisfied. I would definitely recommend them.

Pump initially worked very well, until the end of the job when I discovered there was no check valve. As it didn't have a check valve as advertised, it got returned. If you don't need a check valve then this is a 5* pump, however if a check valve is important it's 1*. It seems I'm not the only reviewer to have received a pump missing the check valve so this does seem to be a misleading description.

Bought this when garden flooded, worked faster than expected

Does what it says and I use 2 now.
