How long should I expect to be able to use the pump (in years)?

The Ameda Elite Electric Breast Pump is a hospital grade pump that can be used for multiple years and through multiple children with proper care of the machine. Pumps like the Medela Pump n Style are designed for short term use, usually working at maximum capacity for only a year or two with regular use. As an owner and user of both pumps, Hospital grade is definitely the better long term investment and maintains full milk supply.

While that can vary based on tank size, usage, climate, etc, I had originally planned for once to twice a year. However after I had the solid waste tank pumped, the tech mentioned using it every 3 months. So that is my plan going forward.

I have had two of these pumps. The first lasted about three years, but it probably ran 15 hours per day. Les K.

If you use the recommended 3-5 pumps daily then your bottle should have a life of 45-50 days.

As far as I know, it's one year for the mattress and 2 years pump/valve. Should have been in the manual. However, punctures or a part is broken by the customer, it's not covered under the warranty.

As far as I know yes..... I have a double pump that is about 4-5 years old and these were perfect for it. As far as any of the earlier models I wouldn't know though. Hope this helps!

Please send me an email at Teia11@PacBell.net and I will send you my phone number. I have used my pump for about six months, and I'm very, very happy with it. Sorry to hear you are Experiencing installation challenges.

if you use one pump and that will cover your face and neck it will last at least 6-8 months

I think it's 30 days, NOt long enough to be of any use. It is an inexpensive submersible that works well in my pond. I expect it to run (8 hour a day) for about 6 months then I replace it. NO serviceable parts. NO way to replace the motor brushes. It is completely sealed. I have several real nice LONG cords from old pumps.

Previously, I had a Hayward single speed pump (3000 rpm). Now, with my Hayward SP2300 VSP, my energy consumption is reduced by approx. 55 to 75% (running at 2200 to 1500 rpm). This means that my new pump will pay for itself within approximately 12 months of continuous usage! If you plan to use your pool in the next few years, it is worth it to replace it now. You may want to calculate the energy savings using your local electricity rate to see how long it takes for the pump to pay for itself. When you do this calculation, you will wonder why you didn't replace the pump sooner!

I have to be honest and say that I don't know for sure I have used it on several occasion for 2 weeks straight as follow 1._ Make sure I have a full charge 2._ Fill up the bed. 3._ Then as needed refill the bed. (The battery was good for the 2 weeks period) I never had to inflate and deflate the bed on a daily basis and can't say how long the pump will last under those conditions

I would guess a minimum of 3 years several years based on design and ease of cleaning with a hose and my impression of durability of design

Mine is working great! If you maintain the pump, like winterizing it, should work for several years,,,

I just asked my marine plumbing guy - he said 'in a pinch' but don't expect years out of it. You should always buy a 'raw water' pump or pump specified for 'Salt' if you want it to last.
