Once up and running, this unitwill easily pump water at a rate equal to, or exceeding,typical faucet pressure. I have pumped water up hill 25 feet to power a lawn sprinkler for hours on endwith no problems. While self-priming (once you've added water to the pump itself), I've found it can be slow to self prime with long intake hose or pumping up hill. I have also found that typical garden hoses cannot cope with the suction of the intakeand tend to pucker and constrict --you'll need a truly ridged and heavy duty hose on this end. This is not a problem on the outflow hose where any normal hose will likely work just fine. Be aware that his model requires some regular maintenanceevery 100 hours to maintain warranty. The heavy-duty metal construction of the unit itself has proven solid and durable. I was disappointed that the supplied intake strainer attachment used a male connector but the female connector is needed to connect the hose to the pump. Supplying an adapter or strainer with a female connector seems called for.Click Here to see more reviews about: Wayne PC4 1/2 HP 115-Volt Transfer Water Pump, Cast Iron
