LumaxLX-1185 Black 18 oz. Suction Gun with 12" Vinyl Flex Hose. Excellent for Draining and Filling Differentials, Transmissions, Clutches, Gear Cases and More!

Good quality

For the price, this is a fantastic tool. The quality feels top notch. The gun section is all metal and is textured in three areas for grip. I was using gloves and had no problem keeping a hold of the gun. The handle pulls back smoothly and evenly. I also like the way it dissembles very easily. The front portion simply screws off and you can wipe down the inside of the gun. The provided vinyl hose is also great quality. It is pretty thick and stays on the gun great. It does not leak or seep at the connection end. The hose is about 1/4 of an inch in diameter, so probably fine for changing most fluids, but if the hole is smaller than that, you will probably have a tough time getting the hose in.Overall it is a 5/5. I bought this because I didn't want to spend so much time with the smaller hand pumps that you have to pump five hundred thousand times. The 18oz capacity will let you fill/drain quicker. I was changing the power steering fluid and it only took about 3/4 of a pull to get all the fluid from my reservoir. Certainly would be helpful when changing differential oil or transfer case oil.Power steering fluid viscosity is like syrup. The gun did great. Had no problem sucking it up and spitting it out. I imagine it would do great with heavier oil. I will be changing my diff oil and will update this with the results.

In the past I used a turkey baster to clean out our 12ft diameter Intex pool. We would get a good whirlpool going in the water and wait 10 minutes for it all to settle. During whirlpool all the "stuff" collects in a nice pile right in the middle. I would get in with a turkey baster and a bucket and spend a few minutes sucking all the gunk out. With this suction gun it cuts the time down significantly because it can hold so much more. It works great, even when it's fully submerged in the water. It's solid, large, and easy to use, even for the kids.

Awesome tool to remove or deposit fluids in awkward or hard to reach places, it did the job multiple times with no difficulty.

Gun is nice and functions well. Needs a tapered longer hose. To fat to fit in the transmission fill hole ( yes under the truck not the dipstick hole)
