hyggerBucket-Free Aquarium Water Change Kit Fish Tank Auto Siphon Pump Gravel Cleaner Vacuum Tube with Long Hose Water Changer Maintenance Tool 25-FEET Plastic Fitting

I was surprised when I saw how good of quality everything was. Once I got everything in hand I was happy with the value vs quality. The nippling for the hoses really grab well, plus they screw down with a cap. The valves work great, I run hot and cold to create the suction for draining then shut the faucet off, visually it seems slow once I turn the water off but I think it's as fast as any other.. you can see it has strong suction watching all the dirty particles from the tank come flying through the clear hose.. filling the tank back up is amazing. Set your temp then let it do it's thing. If your changing water with 5 gal buckets like we were ... This is worth it trust me.

Easy to use and no bucket no mess. Price is perfect for the pocket.

It is a unique product that you can hook up to to your faucet to clean your fish tank. For the most part, it works well and is so much better than using buckets, particuarly if you have a larger fish tank. While I would recommend the product, I have found a few issues with it:1. You need to tie some type of weight to the end that goes into your fish tank.2. That same end is tinted gray, so it's not really easy to see how much is coming up when you clean the gravel.3. The end that hooks to the faucet, at times, can get stuck and it's then really difficult to get off.I do like it though, not a whole lot of assembly and for the most part, works well. It's very efficient to use and again, much better than the bucket method for many reasons.

Although this review is a year late, I can only say that the water change kit does exactly what it says it does. I purchased the kit with the longest poly tubing so I could use my garden hose since none of the faucets close to my aquarium have a compatible spout although the kit comes with different adapters. In addition, the longer tubing also allowed me to siphon the water out to my garden plants rather that dumping it down the drain. The most significant feature is the ability to switch from siphoning to reversing the flow and putting water back into your tank just by turning the ball value.My kit was purchased in 2020 and as mentioned, it did well for the several water changes I performed up until this review where the siphon part (T-shaped piece) snapped off when attempting to snug up the hose fitting. Totally my fault as I may have overtightened the fitting. Having mentioned that, I offer a word of caution about doing the same if you plan to purchase this kit. Do Not Overtighten the connections! The unit is plastic.Most importantly is what happened after the part broke. Being after a year of use I didn't think that this unit would be under warranty but I sent Hygger an email offering to purchase a replacement. To my surprise, they responded almost immediately and unbelievably I received a replacement in the mail the next day (email sent Friday, replacement received Saturday) free of charge.I think it is needless to say this water change kit offers alot of bang for the buck and with a customer service experience I had (of course YMMV) I am extremely happy with it.

This product will not get the tough jobs done. Hose too small takes forever, permanent kinks. Don't be cheap get the python. Lesson learned.

Worked well the first few times. Then the siphon tube started falling off (we had to duct tape that to get it to stay on), and today, the shutoff valve started leaking and dripped down my arm while I was working on a high tank. Not worth the hassle. I'm off to buy a Python.

I got a huge fish tank a couple years ago, and have diligently changed the water one bucket at a time each month. I recently moved to a new home, and the faucet is much further away from my tank and all the hassle of moving the buckets out two doors was enough to make me not want to keep my beautiful fish. So on to Amazon I went... At first I was looking for a sucker that had a super long hose so that I could just put the end of the hose out the doors into my yard. Which would solve one of my problems. But a simple search brought me to the Hygger Bucket Free Aquarium cleaner. I read the reviews and was almost immediately sold. So I purchased the product, it arrived to my home super fast. I used this for the first time last week, and let me tell you, THIS PRODUCT IS A GAME CHANGER!!!!! I'm actually upset that I didn't look for a better product sooner lol. It was easy to set up and seriously took less time to do a 80% water change then I have ever done. I really liked that my fish weren't upset by pouring water in from the top of the tank. If your on the fence about ordering this, this is your sign to jump off the fence and buy it.

Good product, made well, I like it a lot. The price is fantastic compared to other brands and I feel this product is just as good if not better than the others. I have been using it for over 6 months now.
