XtremepowerUS 1.5HP Variable 2-Speed Swimming Pool Pump High Flow Above-Ground Swimming Pump Strainer w/ Slip on Fitting

The pump it’s very quiet and it moves a lot of water in the high setting . The lower setting it’s plenty to move enough water through a 12” sand filter with a handy valve connected to a 1” irrigation pipe for solar power heating that it’s about 120 feet of pipe in a circle, my pools heats up to 90 degrees . I have a 2500 gallons above ground pool for the kids . I use a timer to power the pump on and off and I had no issues with the plug . The change over adaptors to connect other hoses aren’t that great, I would recommend buying another type to avoid headaches . Overall it’s a well made pump and easy to clean the skimmer .

Living in Nashville we usually end up with some cold weather and frost. My current pump started to burn out it's bearing and was becoming to Noisy to run at night when the temperature started to drop. I needed a quick replacement and this pump was the practical solution. It was shipped and arrived in two days. It only took me one day to install and was up and running before the frost and snow arrived. Works like a charm, is quiet and at a great price point.

I was hesitant to purchase because it was so cheap. I bought it because it fit my needs and I wanted to experiment with cost savings during peak hours while maintaining pool cleanliness. It has only been about 5 weeks, but the pump works well at high speed (not as much flow as my old Hayward, but I did the calculation and it is more than adequate for our 24X16 oval. And at low speed it keeps my solar heater pumping in warm water while reducing my electric bill by at least $45/month (running low speed during peak hours of 1-7 pm). ROI should be about 4 months. Everyone’s situation is different, but this was a great fit for us and I am very happy with this product. Update: finished the pool season and all is well. It does have a (frequency?) whine to the pump at low speed, but no issues. I would recommend

This pump is about 1/3 the price of the Hayward pump it replaced and fortunately for me, it has the same size fittings in the same location as the Hayward pump which made replacing it quick and easy. The pump is running fine so far so lets compare it to the Hayward it replaced. The size and fittings between them is the same in both size and location, and as said above, makes it a fairly easy replacement. The mounting plate is not exactly the same and required me to drill new holes in the filter base to mount it but that is not a big deal to me The Hayward pump assembly is heavier than this one and and since the pump itself looks about the same, most of the added weight is in the motor. I would say that the Hayward motor is a heavier duty motor. The motor on this unit runs warm but not hot in low speed and cooler on high speed, probably due to the motors fan moving more air on high speed. The Hayward probably moves a bit more water than this pump in both speeds but really not enough to cut this pump down for it. Sound wise, they are about the same with this one slightly louder on low speed and slightly quieter on high. Either way, this pump runs quietly enough not to disturb anyone. The one true downside to this pump is its lack of real warranty. The only real warranty it has is Amazons return policy and the tag in the box actually says to deal with the seller for short term issues. They do offer a 1 year extended warranty but for most of us, it is completely useless. In order to activate it, you need to have the pump professionally installed. The price to have this done in many cases can wind up costing as much as the pump itself. If the pump does fail within this extended warranty, you need to send it shipping prepaid to the manufacturer. This means that you have to pay for shipping both ways. The cost of both the install and the shipping both ways would more than exceed the cost of just buying a new pump so effectively, there is no warranty past the Amazon return / exchange window. I honestly don't expect this pump to last as long as the Hayward pump it is replacing but at 1/3 the price, if it lasts half as long, it is still a bargain. If it fails before the season is over, I will update this review but as for now, it is doing what it was bought to do.

On low this motor pulls 250 watts, and on high it's about 650. My old motor pulled close to 1000, and didn't pump as much water as this on low! The build quality seems excellent. The pump pressure is not than sufficient on low to push water through my hand filter, giving us the water clarity you expect in a pool. Overall, it's an excellent buy so far and performs great for 1/3 the cost of my old Hayward!

Pump was easy to install and the bi pole switch was convenient. However after only half a season of use I packed it up for the winter according to its manufacturer user guide and when I went to set it back up this year it wouldn't pump. Wouldn't turn on or anything. I ensured there was power to the outlet, tried alternative power sources, ensured the wires were hooked up correctly, nothing. Definitely not a durable piece of equipment. I would only buy this if I wanted to buy a new pump every year, instead of the standard 8-10 year replacement guide for this type of equipment.

Not only is it a good price but it been running with no issues since the day I installed it..... Very good pump

This pump was a bit of a learning curve. But once I had it down, it’s kept my pool sparkling without a cover all summer (proper chemical usage as well). It quickly helps to filter out debris. I have a 21 foot vinyl lined semi permanent above ground round pool. It’s best powerful, so you’ll need to fill your pool high enough to keep it from sucking in excess air. We used it end of year last year, and then upon opening this summer. I’m very happy with it. Paired it with a new 16” sand filter… and it’s been Chef’s Kiss good.
