22 customers mention13 positive9 negative

Customers are mixed about the size of the vacuum cleaner. Some mention that it's good for small tanks, while others say that it is not the 11 inch length advertised.

"...this much more convenient than a full on siphon, and it's better for the betta tank than doing 100% water changes." Read more

"Functional, looks exactly as pictured. Because it is so large, the parts are not tightly connected so suction power is a little weak." Read more

"...My kitchen baster is too big for the job and this is the perfect size...." Read more

21 customers mention6 positive15 negative

Customers are dissatisfied with the leakage of the vacuum cleaner. They mention that the seal is leaky, holds air bubbles, and shoots water.

"...of a turkey baster (I think that's what they're called) and really doesn't leak...." Read more

"...It leaked a considerable amount which made actually getting the waste out nearly impossible, and more gross as well...." Read more
