    Works well bigger and more powerful than my previous one. Just one thing make sure you check the pipe size before buying, the outlet pipe was too big for my flex pipe had to buy a reducer connector but worked well once all connected up.

    Put this pump in nearly 3 months ago and have not had to clean it out yet. Was feeding into 2 filter boxes anc had to clean them out weekly. Made my own larger filt box to cope with the flow and my pond has cleared so I can now see the fish. Will need to clean top sponges at weekend but pump still going strong…

    The instructions say about removing the two screws holding the lid closed for transit. Only read that bit when it seemed difficult to open. After removing them it was all very easy to set up. There’s not much inside the case but what is there seems nicely made and put together. Only time will tell how reliable it is in the long term. All OK after 1 month.

    I used the pump in conjunction with my Oase filter to pump up to a waterfall.
    It provides plenty of flow for my needs and the water fall looks great.

    The hardest part was supplying a safe electric feed to the pond. Once I sorted that out it was fine. The water cleared after 2 weeks and the fish lying near the surface as the o2 levels improved. It’s fine for my 5x4x2 foot pond. Good value and just keeps umping!

    i needed a new pump so decided on this one as a close replacement, i like the side water outlet as i didn’t want one for a fountain, it has a good flow of water so does the job for me and i knew it wouldn’t be a proper filter pump.

    Plain brown box arrived containing the 13000 model. Photo shows the rather basic contents. A retail box or colour leaflet would’ve brightened up the delivery. All seems a bit ‘wholesale’ . Not installed yet but thought the photos would help anyone expecting more than the very basic level of packaging and instructions.

    Basic. (13000 model)

    This pump is brilliant, I’ve had a few different brands and must say this pump is so much better than my old ones. Water flowed down my waterfall within 2 seconds of switching this on. The flow is perfect and the larger holes make it extremely good at sending the larger debris to my filter. Would definitely recommend.

  59. ShennaCGRE says:

    So much better than the pump we had, lighter, more effective, keeps pond clean, half the price of some retail stores, thought it would be a temp solution when actually it’s a great pump at great value. Massive improvement if the one I had which was twice the price

    My very old pump failed and was not repairable so I opted for this replacement as it was on sale. I was initially concerned because it was much smaller than the outgoing pump but it works at a similar capacity. I have quite a large pond and the pump is used to push water through a filter and out through a feature. Which it does admirably well.

    Bought to replace a much more expensive pump which has stopped working although only 19 months old. It wa still under guarantee but the company (not Amazon ) wanted it returned to them at my expense before deciding on a course of action?? Decided to purchase a new pump instead. This Swell pump was delivered overnight is half the price, runs like a dream, is very easy to set up. If it lasts as long as the guarantee it will be money well spent!
    Very pleased at the moment.

    Not sure on the flow rate being accurate.

    I’m going to need a bigger one. Maybe my hose is too long. So should have over sized the pump.
    Also a bit fiddly to clean for me the lid always falls off, hinges could hold the lid better
    5m of 1.25″ hose.

    Upgrading to the 5000L preium instead

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersThis has proven to be much more robust and easier to keep running at full flow than the cheap Chinese pump I bought last time. Tolerates a higher level of leaf fall and other debris and is easier to clean when I do get round to it. This size is just right for feeding a waterfall feature with a total rise of about 1 metre through about 3 metres of 25mm pipe.

    This replaces a bigger unit (similar flow rate, but 20+ years old & probably less efficient). It has been pumping for weeks now, as hoped. Bags of flow, but it does hum very slightly, which I had not noticed with the old unit – The fish don’t seem to mind.
