Could be better
So I bought this to replace an electric Primo bottled water pump that only lasted a year before the motor inside of it seized up and stopped pumping.<br /><br />First thing you'll notice, is that every single word on the box is in spanish.  It does have a factory seal on the box showing whether it's been opened or not, and every once in a while Amazon will send you something that someone else has already returned for whatever reason.<br />The data sheet inside of the box however was mostly in english... But there are absolutely no instructions telling you what tools you'll need or what the hole size needs to be.<br />Opening the box, I saw that packaging was non-existent and as if they just grabbed everything and threw it in the box and closed it up.<br /><br />The control/pump box or enclosure is NOT UL listed and neither is the power supply.  It's all pretty flimsy and feels cheaply made.<br />The plastic mounting block for the faucet is very poorly designed, because if you run the switch wire through the hole with the mounting screw and nut, you're going to pinch the switch wire and possible short the wire causing the pump to constantly run.<br /><br />So... Since I wanted to drill the smallest hole possible in my sink, I removed the plastic mounting block all together and modified it to work without it.<br />In the sink is the faucet only, and since I had drawers that opened in front of the sink with plastic "cups" inside I mounted the switch as pictured.<br /><br />Installation is very easy if you have experience with simple plumbing and an imagination.<br />I just received it today and after everything was hooked up the way that I wanted it, I tested it and it seemed to work good with no visible water leaks.<br /><br />I live in the boonies and have well water which has a three stage water filter system plus a water softener, but I can still tasted the salt from the water softener so I use the five gallon jugs for coffee and all of that kinds of stuff...<br />So after I've gone through a few jugs and know that everything is still working good, I may update this review.<br /><br />I don't expect a whole lot considering the price of what I got, but being that it plugs into the wall and is surrounded by water I would expect it to be at least UL listed and a little better quality.
