Product Description
The new shape of silence. The Whisper Air patented dome shape and sound dampening chambers minimize turbulence and produce a smooth quiet stream of air. Wide footprint, rubber feet and suspended pump motor eliminate sound producing vibrations. Thick walls insulate motor noise. Powerful diaphragms provide ample airflow for deep water applications.

This was a good pump with quality bubbles but the lifespan is maybe 4 months. If you dont mind replacing this pump every 3-4 months than this is the pump for you but just know that the normal lifespan of a comparable pump is at least one year or better.


1 out of 5 stars Disposable air pump?   August 9, 2008
I've gone through 2 of these in the last 8 months in a 65 gallon tank feeding a small air stone and a 36" flexible bubble strip. Quiet enough when concealed in a cabinet and lots of air at first, but then the rubber diaphragms ripped after 3 or 4 months, rendering them useless. Repair kits are available for around $10 + shipping, which would amount to just a little bit less than what I payed for the pump in the first place. I think I'll be switching brands this time instead.


1 out of 5 stars wasting money   June 28, 2008
This pump is quiet and good performance for the first two months. After two months there was less air coming out of the pump and death after less than 3 months. I couldn't believe it was last less than three months. I should have invested in a more expensive pump.







1 out of 5 stars Same old problems   May 17, 2008
I purchased this less than 5 months ago...now i wish i would have read the reviews. Both bladders are now blown. I don't know if this is par for air pumps but I WILL be trying a different brand because its going to cost $20 to order the replacement parts online. Thats almost half of what this pump cost initially.


1 out of 5 stars You get what you pay for.   May 8, 2008
Bought both a 60 and a 100. Both lasted less than 6-months, rubber diaphrams tear apart. Warranty is worthless, shipping BOTH ways will cost you more than the pump did. Quiet is a personal opinion. Don't expect to put one in a bedroom and be able to sleep at night. Save your money and buy a better pump.
