This is a fantastic and powerful submersible water pump with some really nifty features built in. The automatic on/off float switch activates the pump when water levels rise and shuts it off as levels drop, preventing dry runs and making it virtually hands-off. There’s also a clever integrated handle that doubles as a float holder, so you can override the float if you want continuous operation down to an inch or so of fluid height. The pump includes multiple discharge fittings to match different hose types, including a garden hose adapter, which adds a lot of versatility. I’ve been using it to drain an inflatable pool, and it works incredibly fast, much faster than expected. The long power cord adds convenience, and the build feels durable and reliable. A quick test in the bathtub even proved the suction and output are more powerful than I realized (maybe not the best test spot, unless you enjoy unexpected indoor rain) haha! All in all, this pump does everything I hoped for and more, and I’d definitely recommend for any draining needs!
