VEVOR Above Ground Pool Pump, 2.5 HP, 148 GPM Max Flow Single Speed Swimming Pool Pump, 220V 3450 RPM 62 ft Max Head Lift with PP Shell Strainer Basket, 122°F Max Water Temperature, for Hot Tubs Spas

For $150? Get it. My pool dude quoted me $1,500 for a pump.HELL NA.Get this one for cheap.It’d be worth it even if you had to change it twice a year. Super easy to swap out anyway.

This pump was a quick swap for my Hayward MaxFlo XL 1.5. The lid is much easier to remove that the Hayward (when I complained to Hayward, they said, "lube it" which didn't help and I understand that their lids now have handles). It is so quiet. I can stand right next to it and understand speech 30+ feet away. I like having a spare basket which is how I know that the customer service is great.

I have in-ground pool, and the pump is about 35 feet away and 1 foot higher than the skimmer line. My power is 240V. This is my 4th pump overall, and it seems to be better than all previous ones I had before. I've been running it on a timer 16 hours a day for just over a month now.Now, the bad 2 things about this one:1. Like someone has already described in his review here, the electric connectors on a 2-speed switch are designed for a flexible smaller-gauge wires with a slide-on female disconnects that need to be purchased separately. While the pump manual calls for a 14-gauge wires, which are 1.6mm solid copper gauge that I have, the pump connectors are not designed for a solid copper 14 gauge that need to bolted on like the Ground wire on this pump. So I had to go to Home Depot and buy what is called "Disconnect F" gauge 16-14 Female Disconnects and crimp them to my solid copper wires for my 240V power. After that you hope that the crimps will stay on and won't get loose with all the vibration of a working pump over the years..2. On low speed- bubbles in the output jet, telling me the pump is "suffocating" as there's not enough water flow on the intake. I have a salt generator cell, so bubbles are not allowed because they can damage the cell. For those that don't have a salt water pool, that probably won't matter. I wish they made the Low speed a little more powerful, not 2.2 Amps but maybe 10-20% more. I can run it in winter time when the salt cell is off, but for hot summer days in Texas, it's a Max speed 16 hours a day.The good: on Max speed, it sucks like a champ, also consuming about half the Amps than my previous pump that couldn't suck as good as this one. Better than any other pumps I ever had. It primes quickly, while the in-ground pool's skimmer is about 1 foot from the pump's suction plane, and about 35 feet away. I can also vacuum the pool without suffocating the pump, no matter how long it takes, which all previous pumps of similar horsepower couldn't do. The price is also good- it's priced like a 1-speed pump, so if you can deal with the connector issue and don't care about low speed bubbles, that seems to be a good choice.As I've been running it for just over 1 month, I cannot tell if it's going to last yet. The times shuts it off at 1 PM when the sun start shining onto it, and as it's painted in black and already running pretty hot even without hot Texas summer sun, the timer shuts if off for 4 hours until it's in the shade and has cooled off. So, it's 8 hours on, 4 hours off. My previous pumps of similar quality lasted at least 5 years each, so I expect a similar longevity from this one. If it goes bad, I'll add to this review. If not, I'll probably buy another one just like this. Hopefully, by that time, they'll re-design the electrical connectors and make the Low speed a little more powerful. Also, I wish they painted it in light colors like silver or white as the southern sun makes it extremely hot, adding to already very hot-running motor.

Great product. Satisfied Customer.

Bought this pump July of 2024 and when plugging it in for this pool season of 2025 it would not work it just hums. Contacted Vevour and they would not replace they told me Please first check if the water pump is stuck (remove the rear cover, turn the shaft with a screwdriver). If it rotates smoothly, use a screwdriver to move the centrifugal switch back and forth (sometimes the switch surface is not clean after winter, which may cause poor contact). and that did not fix it and they kept telling me to use the screw driver after I told them that did not work. So they will not replace so beware.

Good quality
