How Solar Pumps on Amazon Try to Trick the Consumer
Why are there so many solar water pumps on Amazon- and why are they so cheap? The easy answer is that Amazon relies on direct sales from foreign factories to fill up the online marketplace with cheap, tempting goods. And for $80 we could understand why anyone would open their wallet and say “what the hell, it can’t be that bad”. Or can it?
But we wanted to be fair to these companies,I mean they have 5 star reviews so someone in US must like what they’re buying. Unless those 5 star reviews are suspiciously written like someon who was PAID to write the review, or the 5 star reviews say they didn’t actually like the product, yet its still highly rated. Many of these companies don’t have any reviews even on their own websites, or accessible websites/ contact information outside of posting on Amazon. We’ve figured out that these brands have a system to avoid alerting consumers to the scam…
Post Cheap Water Pump on Amazon –> Pay For 4 or 5 Star Fake Reviews –> Keep Product Listing Up Until the Average Star Rating Drops Below About a 3 –> Repost Product Under Slightly Different Name or Brand –> Repeat
RPS is a solar pump company based in the US, with US employees and US support staff. We’ve become just as confused as to why all these imposter pumps are cropping up in US markets and wreaking havoc on consumers. So we decided to dig into the dark underbelly of solar pump amazon – hang on because you may not get your money back.

DC HOUSE CUSTOMER REVIEWS
DC HOUSE SOLAR WELL PUMP REVIEW FROM VERIFIED PURCHASE 1 out of 5 stars
So basically it broke down in 2 months. I have contacted customer service through the website, multiple emails they have listed, the little mail bubble that takes you to an assistant and nothing and through their own contact button on the site, it’s been 3 weeks and not a single message back after over 15 messages sen through there website. Basically customer service is a joke. It started smoking and it’s clearly electrical burning smell. And I want to be clear, this pump runs twice a week for 5 minutes each and it’s still burning up that fast. Do yourself a really big favor, don’t buy anything from this company don’t buy their products, don’t buy anything with their brand on it. You can thank me for saving you the time, aggravation and frustration and the $65 you are going to be out.

Motor runs constantly after 3 months. Seems like pressure cutoff switch has malfunctioned but Amazon has no link to contact manufacturer for help.
DC HOUSE SOLAR WELL PUMP REVIEW FROM VERIFIED PURCHASE 1 out of 5 stars
I’ve used this twice, each for less than 30 minutes at a time. It is pumping downhill through a garden hose with a 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch adapter, and the filter screen is perfectly clear – so a very non-restricted flow. After about 25 minutes, the pump overheats and shuts off. I rested my hand on it to make sure it was plugged in all the way, and the pump motor was so hot it burned my hand! The pump part of it seems good from what I can tell with only 2 uses, but the motor is not remotely appropriate to run this application if it overheats after <30 minutes of use flowing downhill!
BUYER BEWARE Warranty Tricks!
DC HOUSE solar pump warranty information is missing from the listing. This is a red flag and is most likely the reason that there are so many reviews saying that the pump broke and the company never responded.
False Claims Made By DC HOUSE
False Claim #1 Durable and Leak-Proof
DC HOUSE claims the pump has durable seals and a leak-proof housing, however many customers complain of leaking early on in use with dangerous leaks into the electrical housing causing electrocution and live wires! The ALL-PLASTIC housing does not stand up to the pressure. This unhappy customer said, “Not a pump…. More like a leaky faucet!”
False Claim #2 4 Year Warranty
DC HOUSE specifically states in the listing for this product that they offer a 4 Year Warranty and that they take responsibility for the product. This is absolutely untrue as many customers have attempted to contact the manufacturer with no luck!
False Claim #3 “Durable and has a long service life”
DC HOUSE claims in the Amazon listing description, for the DC HOUSE solar well pump, that the pump has a “Durable and has a long service life”. In reality, customers are experiencing a range of product lifespans much shorter than anticipated, from 6o days to a few months.
False Claim #4 Adjustable Pressure Switch
DC HOUSE claims in the Amazon listing description that the pump has an adjustable pressure switch and that the switch should last and work consistently. The fact is, the pressure switches are faulty and have failed for many customers, resulting in constant running of the motor and overheating because of the cheaply made DC Brushed motor construction.
Instead of cheap pumps that historically fail, go with an American company with a history of supporting the people!
