Lanchez 1.6HP Shallow Well Garden Pump, Stainless Steel Irrigation Pump, 1340 GPH, Automatic Water Booster Jet Pump for Home, Garden, Lawn,Irrigation, 115V, Matte black

Works well

I had purchased 2 other units that were about $35 dollars less that state it’s as powerful as this pump. That’s a lie! They were not even close to the GPM they were rated for. I sent them back for a refund. THIS pumps works super quiet and pumps like no other. I had the exact same pump for over a year but left it outside in the freezing cold one night. It cracked something inside the pump and stopped working. That was my fault, I should have brought it inside that night and paid the price. I tried going cheaper to save a few bucks, and realized why this one is priced the way it is. It’s worth every cent! I fill a 100 gallon container everyday with this pump. It’s never let me down. This review is real, so if you’re looking for a high volume pump, this it it!

These pumps are very efficient and have great pressure capability. I installed this for domestic water pump that was pumping very soft and non-mineral water. 8 months after install, the stainless steel housing of the pump suction side developed pinhole leaks on the bottom of the pump housing, causing the pump to loose prime over time due to sucking air in the pinholes. I installed this pump with a downstream check valve to prevent the housing from being pressurized after the pump shuts off so the leaks was a nuisance (except for the loss of prime) instead of a major leak. Attempting to get some action from the seller since this is within the 1 year warranty, I'll report back on how this goes. Update: After contacting the supplier, they have been very responsive and are sending a replacement pump, very pleased with the response. Upgraded rating to 4 stars. Second update: After providing them with pictures showing the leaks, they send me a new pump, which I received within 5 days of my initial contact with them. Great customer service!!!

Powerfull pump! Good quality! Work great!!

We discovered an old well on our property a couple of months ago, and getting this Lanchez 1.6HP Shallow Well Jet Pump was easily one of the best decisions we’ve made for our homestead. ​Before we got this set up, watering our vegetable garden and flower beds during the hot Louisiana summer months meant bracing ourselves every time the municipal water bill came in the mail. Now, we use the well for all our outdoor watering needs, and it has saved us tons of money. It’s such a relief to be able to give our vegetables and flowers all the water they need without constantly worrying about running up a massive bill. ​What We Love About It: ​✔️ Great Water Pressure: With 1.6 HP and a 1340 GPH flow rate, the pressure is fantastic. It easily pushes enough water through our hoses and sprinklers to cover both our garden plots and lawn without skipping a beat. ​✔️Automatic Operation: The built-in automatic pressure switch is super convenient. You don't have to keep walking back and forth to turn it on and off, it senses when you open or close the hose nozzle. ✔️​Solid Build: The stainless steel housing feels rugged, well-built, and durable for outdoor use. Plus, the glossy black finish actually looks surprisingly slick! ​A Few Practical Tips: ​Prime It First: Like any jet pump, you have to make sure it’s completely primed with water before you run it the first time, or you risk damaging the seal. ​Keep It Protected: Even though it’s sturdy, we recommend keeping it under a small cover or pump house to protect the motor and electrical elements from harsh weather. We found an old tiny shed on the property & are using it as housing for pur Well pump. ​If you have an existing well or alternative water source on your property and want to cut down on municipal water costs, this pump pays for itself in no time. The Lanchez 1.6HP Shallow Well Garden Pump, Stainless Steel Irrigation Pump, 1340 GPH, Automatic Water Booster Jet Pump for Home, Garden, Lawn,Irrigation, 115V, Glossy black, is reliable, powerful, and gives you total peace of mind when caring for your garden! 💯 RECOMMEND

In my travels I see these Chinese pumps sold all over the world and have owned this specific pump almost a year connected to a 3600 gallon Rainwater Cistern that is used for irrigation. THE GOOD. 1) With an attached pressure regulator to a on/off switch, I can regulate pressure up to 65 max psi. I can pump 225/gal hour at 45psi to support 6 simultaneous sprinkler heads for up to 800 sq.ft coverage. Low Noise. THE BAD: 1) No Warranty. NO PARTS. Cannot Contact Seller or Manufacturer. Web Site is fake. No Customer Service. 2) Power cord undersized for current load. Cord size measures not quite 16 guage (17 guage). Pump draws 9 amps. The factory cord will likely not last more than a year before starting to overheat the motor. Before installing my pump, I replaced the factory cord with a 14 guage power cord designed for 12 amps. I found this design flaw (undersized power cords) common with pumps from China. 3) Pipe fittings and pump case fittings are NOT NPT (Tapered Thread). They are NPS (Straight Thread). NPS requires a flange, o-ring, or washer to seal. I read numerous complaints about leaks, especially leaks at the head. The nuts inside the cover for small fittings is not 100% sealed to the cover. Threads are NPS. You must use a flange or o-ring to seal against the outside of the cover and compress the cover to the nut. This is a very common problem with this thin walled stamped Stainless Steel head design.. The 1" NPS output is going to require a lot of sealant and torque to seal to an NPT pipe. AGAIN, NPT and NPS are incompatible. Difficult to seal. 4) Poor Assembly. Pump cover Allen head screws were not evenly torqued. Cover leaked. This was easily corrected by loosening all nuts and slowly retightening to a snug fit in an even cross hatch fashion. 5) NO PARTS available. Impeller and Diffuser inside pump are inexpensive plastic and would be very easy to replace if they became distorted from heat over time or in case a low water switch fails and they overheated or cracked from freezing, which happened to me in Texas Feb 2021 with loos of power for a heat lamp. I cannot order a replacement part. The inexpensive list price of this pump is bait. I don't have the time to deal with issues like this. It is just not worth it. MB - Austin, TX

For the price cant beat for bench scale and pilot use. Remember to order two so you have a backup.

I received this item shortly after I ordered it. But when I tested it, it gave me a low GPM like 4-5 GPM. I contacted the seller who was very responsive and helped me figure out what's the problem. Then they finally decided to send me a replacement which I received today. I will try it this weekend and come back to update, but for the great customer service, I will give them a 5-star.
