Review Update - it’s now been almost 2 years and this guy is still silent and still working perfectly. A true 5 stars.Original Review:I've previously had condensate pumps from Little Giant, the de facto option at most big box home improvement retailers and the choice of many HVAC pros. The units are reliable, but they're also objectively ugly and can be heard clearly when pumping. When we decided to place a continuous service dehumidifier in our master bath (NYC apartment without vent fan means during humid summers, tons of bathroom mold growth and general nastiness unless you do something about the moisture) I wanted something that wouldn't look so industrial - the Little Giant units were fine in a basement or crawlspace, but this was going to be visible every time we use our bathroom and my wife was not on board. Enter the Fujiwara unit - I'll admit I bought mostly on aesthetics, but what has really impressed me is that these units are truly silent. Not "hard to hear" or "silent from a distance", I mean literally silent - I used clear tubing and still had to hold a flashlight to the line to confirm it was actually pumping when I did a test run and poured water from a bottle into the unit before connecting to the dehumidifier. It's now been about 3 months and the unit hasn't missed a beat - it is still silent, still incredibly effective and showing no signs of slowing down. It's small enough that I was able to attach it to the dehumidifier itself with adhesive velcro pads and tuck out of sight. I will update if there are any reliability issues down the line, but so far this is the best condensate pump option on the market by a long shot!

The construction seems very well and function as described. It doesn’t produce noise ! Recommend it.

I have only had it installed for a day but so far so good. I was a little dissapointed to see it had a us 110 plug on it instead of the wires because I planned on direct wiring but I think its going to be a blessing in disguise. It was so easy to install because of the plug and thankfully long enough to get to my outlet. I tested it by dumping in a 16 oz water bottle. It emptied it in seconds. It does leave water in the tube but I am hoping that water is flushed out frequent enough and won't cause oders.1 year update...Darn thing stopped working almost slipped and fell because of the water. The pump was still running but it was over flowing. The thing was a little warm so who knows how long it had be trying to run for. Its like its too weak to move water now. I also had to take it apart and clean it a few times. That resivor gets gross and clogs the lines. It should be accessible. Very bad design.

Better quality and easier installation and serviceable than the mini tank and remote pump type. Modern neat looking that mounts adjacent to the inside unit. Easier to servive if lint or dust get into the reservoir.

This pump was installed to facilitate the condensation discharge from our Mr. Cool basement unit. I will update as time progresses but install was easy. This pump was purchased to replace a Gobi II that malfunctioned by buzzing loudly and constantly after only 2 summers. This one has an external power plug whereas the Gobi had a hard wire that was hidden behind the walls, so this one is less aesthetically pleasing. If it works for longer than the Gobi it will be well worth it though. Updates to come.

This totally solved a chronically condensate leaking Daiken split unit in our Sun Room. The existing pump was a smaller unit the installer tried to "hide" inside the Daiken cover (which didn't fit well). The reservoir would fill and the pump would trigger LATE, meanwhile water would spill out on the floor overflowing the condensate tray.I installed this on the wall below the Daiken indoor evaporator unit with new condensate lines. I took 120V power from one side of the 240V power terminal block in the Daiken unit. End result was clean looking and TOTALLY solved the leaking problem. When this unit comes on, you literally can't hear it unless you put your ear against it, that is how quiet it is.My take-away is -- outboard condensate pumps are the way to go.

I owned three of these Fujiwara pumps. They work well. I ordered another Fujiwara pump. It had no power cord in the box and when I installed it, it was leaking. The rubber plug in the back was damaged, either in manufacturing or the way they installed it into the pump at the factory. They should send an extra

I liked it at first because it's really quiet like advertised. But it failed after 3 months. Inlet is clean, power is on. The support instructions through their links on Amazon mention referencing a user manual but there's no manual to be found. The support website goes to a different company with same name but in Japan. I contacted this company and they confirmed they don't make or sell this unit. Bad news!I gave two stars instead of 1 since it was nice while it lasted.
