This was to replace a similar item which lasted 2 yrs.

Very disappointed this is not as good as it looks

The pump works well. Reasonable pressure. But the spray nozzles are too fine.

My pump was delivered quickly and well packed. The included instruction manual was for a concrete spreader, not a water pump. This pump should only be considered as 'transfer pump' not a 'pressure' pump. Once filled with oil and petrol, the motor started easily and ran sweetly. Once correctly primed, the pump moved a lot of water but when attempting to lift water 26 metres up a hill through a 1.5" dia poly pipe, the alloy pump housing cracked at the webbing after only about 10 minutes operation.

Opened box and had to air product - stunk of chemicals. After a day started to assemble. Instruction manual hopeless. Typical Chinese crap. Anyways, after a lot of fiddling about and using logic was able to put it together. Have used it a few times and works well.

Reasonably easy to construct. Some screws didn't quite marry up, but as stated by someone else; easily rectified. My biggest problem with this item is that it's most certainly NOT an outdoor-ready product. It took 3 coats of marine grade polyurethane, and after a year it has now washed off. So it looks like it will require another dose every year. FYI for anyone wanting to use this outside: Make sure you sand it right back AND make sure you use EXTERIOR polyurethane, or similar, to ensure it bonds!

The product is a nice design made from a light and quality wood. It would go well in a covered area outside in the garden as nice little eye catching piece or hanging on the wall inside the home as it's nice and light. Anyway, it looks great and i'm very happy with the item!

I like the product now that it has been assembled, but my husband, who is a mechanic and very good at fixing almost anything had quite a bit of trouble as some of the screws were not long enough. The joints in the uprights were incorrectly cut and couldn't be assembled until more material had been removed. We went to fill the bucket with flowers, but as we were taking it off the handle in the bucket came off and he had to secure it either end with screws. Unless the person was a handyman they would not been able to assemble it.
