Wish I had this years ago
Differential and transmission oil changes have never been my favorite things to do. There's never enough room to get the bottle and funnel above the fill level of the unit and even warm gear oil is so thick that it's a pain to pump. I've tried the little hand pumps and moved onto the garden-sprayer-type that use compressed air to push it (slowly) through a tube. Even that took forever; air compresses readily and the thick gear oil never wants to go through the hose, so its a lengthy process. The other fun thing about that compressed air is once you do have the diff/trans full, you can't stop it right away. That compressed air is still pushing gear oil while it now overflows onto your floor. Yay.With this, it all changed. Stick the tube down in the bottle, pull the handle to the measurement you need, poke it into the fill hole, and push to dispense. Repeat as needed. And you're done. You have enough control over it to stop pushing fluid immediately once you see it reach the lower edge of the fill port; no more overflow when its full. This was faster, cleaner, less wasteful, and less physical labor than the hand pumps.Am I too excited about a basic gear oil pump? Probably. Is this tool so good that I'll no longer dread doing these jobs? Absolutely. Well worth the money.

Gets the job done
Well made and reasonably priced.If you need to extract a small amount of fluid from a lawnmower or snow blower, this would be a good choice. :)

I love this thing
It does exactly what you need it to do. Removes most fluids easily even thicker oil. Seals seem durable and fluid doesn't get past them. I do think the extra straw extension needs something to stop it from getting sucked in and that's why I'm taking a star

Works good
Works good. Clean and relube the 0-ring after use so it will work the next time you need it.

Very easy
Great quality and works great! Never trying to change oil on mowers the old way again. Oil change on my Ariens was awful mess. This got the oil out with no mess or tools. Really like it. Wish I had this years ago. Very well made. And I have used it on other liquids in hard to reach places.

Easy oil change.
Works very good.The larger tube connects to the syringe.The smaller tube connects to the larger tube with the supplied adapter.I used it to drain the oil from my pressure washer.It’s so much better than tipping the pressure washer on it’s side.With a few pulls of the the syringe the oil was drained.

Did the job but wasn't easy.
I used this for a transmission fluid change. It was a a little tricky to use because i had to keep sucking up the fluid out of the quarts and then re-attaching the tube to the fitting that was screwed into the oil pan. VW didn't help because there is no over-flow nut so the fluid had to be injected into the drain hole. It made quite a mess during this transfer. I'm sure there are better ways to inject the fluid into the pan. I had to refill the tube at least 3-4 times for each quart and at least 2 quarts of fluid had to go in before I tested the level so it took longer than it should.

Messy
It's very hard to press the last bit out. When you suck fluid in, the last bit dribbles out.
