## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great cheap alternative to a vacuum pump!
*by M***O on January 24, 2014*

I didn't even known these things existed until I saw a guy on Instructables.com demonstrate how it could pull a near complete vacuum. I had already built the vacuum chamber but the price of a vacuum pump that could pull a perfect vacuum was a little discouraging since I had to do it on a budget.My use for this was to degas silicone for mold making. It has worked perfectly. I had to jerry-rig it in order to use it with a bilge pump from Harbor Freight in a 10 gallon bucket where the water was recirculated. The result was a near perfect vacuum that has served my needs perfectly although it does take anywhere from 20 to 40 minutes to degas depending on the amount and viscosity of the silicone..

### ⭐ I tried several like this and found this one to be by far ...
*by T***Y on March 13, 2015*

I tried several like this and found this one to be by far the weakest performer in spite of it costing twice similar items here on AMAZON.

### ⭐⭐⭐ A great product - for another lab
*by S***K on January 4, 2014*

I think this aspirator pump is built for a lab faucet that looks like this:[...]Unfortunately, these are found in my lab:[...]This pump still fit about half of the faucets in my lab, but would blow off if the water was turned up too high. If I held the pump in place, I was able to get a decent vacuum going.
