WON'T ALWAYS RESTART by ARJUNA K

Experience Level: Intermediate

Posted on 10/7/2009 from FREMONT, CA UNITED STATES

Comments: I have had this pump (Model 3000) run for about 3 months now, and it will not always start if power is cycled. I have to cycle the power about 3 - 4 times before it "catches". My heaters are in the sump so I need to get something more reliable. I would not recommend this product to my friends.

No Head by The Laws

Experience Level: Intermediate

Posted on 9/20/2009 from ISSAQUAH, WA UNITED STATES

Comments: This pump is not reliable. I used it to fill my water change reservoir which is only 4 1/2 feet tall. After just three months, it could not even pump the water up to the top of the reservior. The specs are very misleading, it says there is 10' head. For me, after three months the head was 3 1/2 feet before any water would come out of the outlet hose. Very pathetic. I also had the 4000 which stopped running after only one year. Don't buy this product if you need any kind of head pressure at all. I would not recommend this product to my friends.

The Loud One by BubbleMiester

Experience Level: Expert

Posted on 6/16/2009 from RANCHO SANTA MARGARITA, CA UNI

Comments: I purchase two of these pumps,4000HH and a 6000. The 4000HH needed a new impeller right out of the box. Would not recommend this product to anyone, very loud and does not have the flow rated I need. At 12ft only get 300GPH with the 6000, very disappointed in the product. I have purchased a mag 12 and a mag 24. Looks likethe Quite One pumps will be used for water changes or be placed on Ebay. I would not recommend this product to my friends.

Great by ZACHARY

Experience Level: Intermediate

Posted on 3/10/2009 from HARWINTON, CT UNITED STATES

Comments: For the cost, size and low power consumption you can't beat it. A lot of people say they're unreliable and won't restart after a power failure. I must say that I have come home after several power failures to find my system running like a charm. Only once have I ever even been able to witness the no restart malfunction, and it was while I was testing an overflow design that wasn't working so well, so I'm thinking maybe if you have a higher amount of head pressure on the outlets then it may not restart. Don't know.... But otherwise I love that it only uses 40 watts, it's insanely quiet compared to my skimmer, and puts out good flow. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

NOT QUIET ENOUGH by WILLIAM VALLE

Experience Level: Intermediate

Posted on 2/22/2009 from EL MONTE, CA UNITED STATES

Comments: This is a nice pump. It works well. It has 1" outlet but it also comes with a 3/4" adapter making the installation to my system easy. I have been running a 780gph rio pump and I wanted more water flow. I was disapointed, the water flow is about the same and the old rio pump is quieter than the rainbow lifegard pump. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Quiet one by Matt Barry

Experience Level: Intermediate

Posted on 2/7/2009 from CHINO, CA UNITED STATES

Comments: The first time I started the pump, I had to bump start the impeller and it was pretty loud. I gave it a day and longer it ran the quieter it got. It starts every time I plug it in and I can't even hear it. Great pump. Makes my Reef Devil skimmer work better then ever and I hate clamps so I really like the threaded output. PVC fitting matches so plumbing is safe and easy. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

1 Year Life on Light Duty by BOB WOMBLE

Experience Level: Intermediate

Posted on 6/13/2008 from ARLINGTON, TX UNITED STATES

Comments: I bought a Quiet One 3000 to pump water from my RO reservoir to my aquarium and my wife’s pond via a hose attachment. Under this light duty (ran perhaps once a week) the pump lasted right at one year before it seized up. I can get a replacement impeller but the impeller doesn’t appear to be the problem. I can't in good conscience recommend Quiet One pumps on this experience but I did like the fact that the pump came with accessories to run both wet and dry. Now if it would just run at all. I would not recommend this product to my friends.

Loud One by JEREMY HOLOVACS

Experience Level: Intermediate

Posted on 3/24/2008 from WEST HENRIETTA, NY UNITED STAT

Comments: Of the three pumps I have, this one is by far the loudest. I got is specifically because I figured a pump called "Quiet One" would actually be quiet. Took the noise level in my sump from "barely noticeable" to "can't ignore." Do not get this pump for an indoor application. That being said, it pumps well. I would not recommend this product to my friends.

Great for lifeguard filter by ECKHARD

Experience Level: Intermediate

Posted on 1/12/2008 from SAN JOSE, CA UNITED STATES

Comments: This pump came with the lifeguard advanced filtration kit. It sits underneath my 54 gallon bow front reef tank, taking water from the intake and pushing it through the lifeguard micron filter, then through the lifeguard chemical filter, and lastly through a 1/15hp chiller before returning to the tank. I have had it for a year now, sitting underneath on a folded towel - no problems at all, and it has always been quiet, although i imagine if i had it sitting straight on the wood there would be some vibration noise.. but its very quiet as set up. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Strong, quiet little pump by dogsoldier

Experience Level: Intermediate

Posted on 1/11/2008 from INDIANAPOLIS, IN UNITED STATES

Comments: This is a very nice pump that comes with fittings for both dry and sub. (wet) uses. The adapter for dry use converts it over to 1/2 MPT (male pipe thread). There is also two barbed hose fittings so you can go directly to a flexible hose. The submersible fitting which is shown in the product picture is adjustable and does work. The only down side I can find is that the fittings are hard to swap out for the submersible and non-submersible. It is a very tight fit and you have to use something to help you lock it in place. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Comments: This pump works really well. I've always had good experiences with Quiet One pumps. They're fairly cheap in price, but they work really well and reliably. I was going to use this as a feed for my chiller and phosphate reactor all in one, but ended up using the Quiet One 1200 for that, and the 800 as a salt mixing pump. They both work great and very quiet. I've never had problems with them starting up either. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
