On top of this obvious issue, the whole thing is poorly designed: hard to put together, with a motor that barely fits in its casing because it was obviously designed by a third party company, a coed insert that makes moving it take 50% longer than necessary, and generic instructions that apply to all of Pioneer Pets products but give little to no information as to the functioning of this one. ...

" ... I tried having Amazon replace the pump but they cannot, only the whole item so now I a have to repackage the whole thing and send it back instead of them simply sending a working pump. ... I haven't had many causes to complain in the past because if one part was faulty they didn't make me return the whole thing. ... "
