Ideaworks JB5684 Battery Operated Liquid Transfer Pump

Good value for your money

This is the second one I have owned, First one finally wore out after several years of service. I go through over 30 gallons of gas for our mower every year so this makes it very easy to fill. Well worth the price for not having to lift and pour 6 gallon gas cansRead full review

Useful but...

This pump does work to pump water into and out of my aquarium. Unlike a siphon which, once started, will drain water out of the tank and won't put water into the tank unless the source is above the tank, this is motor powered. However, I have had issues with these pumps (this is my third or fourth). First, if the aquarium gravel is sand sized or slightly larger, it can get sucked up if the pump is too low in the tank. This effectively kills the pump and pump motor and the pump becomes garbage. Another problem I've had is that if the pump is dropped, the on/off switch breaks and will no longer work. Again the pump is garbage.Read full review

I love these pumps. It's easy to handle and light enough for me. Nice

So far so good. I have owned three of these in the last 10 years. Not all the same brand but this is my spare. I tried it out and it's great. I can't lift the gas cans so this works perfect for my riding lawn mower. Just make sure the part of hose that attaches to the pump has a black like thing that hooks to the pump. Important.

Light weight , easy to use

Great item to have around. Works well to transfer gasoline for yard equipment without any mess.

Ground water transfer

Bought this pump in mid 2017. Used it possibly 10 times. It finally gave out today. This was used to remove ground water from my utility valve box. The gpm is not great, just ok. I wish it was more durable for the number of times used. Cannot disassemble, made in china. Looks good but will not last! 🤔Read full review

It is certainly a back saver.

I was surprised at the quality of this pump. Great value for the price. I bought it to transfer #2 fuel oil from a 5 gallon can to my home heating tank. It is certainly a back saver.

packaged poorly and leaks everywhere

the pump arrived in a plastic bag with no protection against being bent and broken, which it was. it's a 500 mile round trip for me to the mailing service that i use, otherwise i would have sent it back($13 isn't worth the drive). i repaired the broken wand and tried to use it. it leaked from the entire upper housing and i was afraid start a fire(i was pumping gasoline). what kind of training does this company give to it's shipping clerks? this item is obviously fragile.Read full review

Great product

This is a great little pump to use to winterize or summerize your toys by removing all the fuel for the season. I like it so well, I ordered a second one.

Shoulder saver

When you got bad shoulders saves on having to hold a heavy safety can that only trickle out take only couple minutes to empty a 5 gallon can

Tranfer Pump

This unit probably would work great for water or simply air (LOL). We purchased it to use for oil. It does not have the power to transfer oil based products. Look elsewhere for an oil application transfer pump. We were transferring 30W oil and it took 45 minutes for 1 quart.Read full review
