Customer Reviews for Wayne 12-Volt Transfer Pump

I wish everything I bought worked this well and was as dependable. I just plain works. Every time. For a long time. I/we use it in the house to move filtered (5 stage) water around. We move at least 120 gallons a week. Every week. I bought it it's own little battery and a wee trickle charger. If I need it outside I grab it and the battery and go. We fill a lot of gallon jugs. Takes 20 seconds flat. For the mathematically impaired that's 3 a minute or 180 an hour in real life. In all honesty, don't expect to lift water very high. Simply because of the priming needed. If your source is "up" over a foot or so you need to prime the unit with some vegetable oil or a slight prime by sucking on the out hose a tad. What that does is extend it's life...fried the first one's pump. But it was replaced and when used correctly, as in read the instructions first, it works like the Energizer bunny.

The pump does what its designed to do. Not very high pressure but it does work well.

Have used pump three times so far- Pumped 6 feet high from a creek and then pumped water 25 feet to my storage barrels. No problems. Filled 4 50 gallon barrels in less than an hour. No problems.
