I am very well pleased with this new transfer pump. I like the cast iron body casing of the pump. It is a little louder than what i had previously, but it is double the flow rate which is very nice in time saving when you are pumping at least 30 gallons of diesel. I like the battery connection cable that came with it. The hose length and Size is bigger and longer than the 8-gallon unit that I had for over a decade. You will appreciate this feature. Be sure to vent the 55-gallon plastic drum you are pumping from because this one will suck the side of the drum in.
