A Great Pump!
By Edward T. 
Overland Park, Kansas
Purchased 06/29/2019 | 
Review Posted 07/23/2019 
We use the Tsurumi LB480 pump to power our 2,400 gallon water garden. Once plugged in, we let it run 24X7X365. It runs summer, winter no matter the weather. I pull it out of the skimmer box to perform routine maintenance and to keep the intake clear. It recycles the water in the pond and keeps it from getting stagnant. This is my third Tsurumi in over 20 years of having the pond. They are reliable, high performing and endure constant immersion. Really a great, reliable pump and for great value.

Florida street flooded for 2 weeks
By Walter C. 
St. Augustine, Florida
Purchased 09/29/2015 | 
Review Posted 10/20/2015 
Our street was flooded 18" & more for 2 weeks. I bought this small simple pump & it pumped out the street in one day. The last time we rented a 4 hp gas pump that was very noisy & you had to keep putting gas in it. The Tsurumi LB-480 took a little longer but the 2" hose was always completely full & it never stopped pumping. It almost payed for itself already & no more rentals.

Large Pond Fountain
By Tim S. 
Lebanon, Ohio
Purchased 08/12/2015 | 
Review Posted 09/05/2015 
This pump was a replacement for an old Tsurumi pump. The old pump was about 10 years old and had never been serviced.

Installed the new one and it has been running non stop for about 3 weeks. This seems to be a very high quality pump.

LB-480
By Robin L 
Vail, Arizona
Purchased 02/13/2015 | 
Review Posted 03/08/2015 
We purchased this pump to drain an 11,500 gal pool with max depth of 6'. With a 2-inch discharge hose, the pump drained the pool nearly to theoretical time interval.

For the next drain, I will reconfigure the hose to take kinks out and improve discharge flow rate. Pump worked as anticipated, and I'm happy with my purchase.

Great Pump
By Kevin 
Provo, Utah
Purchased 01/20/2015 | 
Review Posted 02/10/2015 
We have used these pumps to replace much more expensive pumps and have been very pleaed with their performance. They are also very easy and fairly cheap to overhaul should they ever need to be.

Review Posted 10/28/2013 
We use this pump to remove excess water from our concrete pool in the winter. It is so quiet, sometimes I have to check to be sure it is on. Runs continuously and well, is easy to use. Well built.

Replacement Pump for Waterfalls
By Bruce 
South Lyon, Michigan
Purchased 08/19/2012 | 
Review Posted 09/09/2012 
I use this pump in my 1/2 acre pond to power our landscaping waterfalls. It replaced the same model that I purchased about 7 years ago which ran 24/7 for about 7 years with no maintenance.

This pump works great so far.
