BW5000-010A Flojet HIGH FLOW Bottled water dispensing system

This is amazing. I’ve had a $2K fridge for a year. I’ve never had an ice maker or chilled water through the fridge. Basic home mechanical skills. It took 20 min from start to finish. Now, we have amazing ice and delicious cold water.... from a 5 gallon jug. It really works. Super easy. Without this, we would still be making ice with messy ice trays. Came in 2 days! Buy with confidence. Very happy.

Installed in a newer LG refrigerator with filter, that extra volume of water makes a world of difference as the previous system pumped out .6 per minute and failed to accommodate the request of the refrigerator creating air pockets (pump ran continuously). Might be 60 bucks more from the .6 systems but it was worth it at least in our situation. TDS meter reads 9 ppm with filter using Sparkletts water, Nice!!

This is actually my second purchase of this item. The first I accidentally broke so we tried switching to a regular in fridge pitcher/filter tap. We hated it. Then we tried a cheaper version of this and it was terrible. The pump was loud and inconsistent the actual dispensing portion was terrible too it seemed like it only worked sporadically. So we sprung for this one again and couldn’t be happier. Right from the start it worked and is a work horse. This newer model is quieter and never skips a beat. We love it. If you’re looking for a water bottle pump to feed through your fridge so you can have better quality water with the convenience of fridge dispensing this is the one. Don’t get fooled by cheaper models they don’t work, I know, I tried.

located the pump in my basement just below my kitchen. All I had to do was run the water line from the pump through the floor and connect it to my refrigerator, and plug in the pump. My primary water is from a well so being able to use the 5 gallon jugs of water from home depot works out great for me to have clean fresh water and ice.

I bought this to replace a different, similar product that had to be replaced four times (the last one is rotting in my garage). This one works, so far, its been a couple of months. Its a bit noisy, but does not run frequently. It pumps directly into my refrigerator for the ice maker and water dispenser. We buy RO water in 5 gallon bottles and this pumps out all of but six cups. I can switch bottles in ten seconds. The RO water makes crystal clear tea, its amazing the difference between that and our tap water.It was very easy to install, especially since I could use my existing tubing.Cons: It's noisy, but so was its predecessor.

This product has a Prop 65 warning for containing styrene which has been proven to cause cancer. I’m disappointed that this wasn’t mentioned anywhere on the product listing and then it gets delivered and I find out a product meant for transporting drinking water contains cancer causing chemicals. I will be returning this and I hope that Flojet starts using materials that don’t harm people. Very upsetting that they don’t care about people’s health.

I had a $60 pump I had been using for years with my fridge without issue. It was time to replace it so I figured why not get the so called name brand because it has to be built and work better right? I was wrong. Yes the system looks great and is easy to connect, but the pump is terrible. It is very loud unlike my old one and took forever to pump water through my fridge to fill a water pitcher. In fact, it was still going 1 1/2 minutes later. In all honestly it is no better than the cheap ones being sold. I feel you're just paying for the name.Another reviewer mentioned a prop 65 warning and it containing chemicals. I contacted the manufacturer who sent me information on it which is what they should have done to verify it. As the unit is made in China they have to legally put the warning on it. They said it has passed 3rd party and is approved for food safe. Nothing that comes in contact with water has anything in it from what they shared with me.I was not happy with the pump though and did send it back. Had it actually been quiet and worked better I might have kept it.

This is an awesome do it for yourself product if you do not want to connect your refrigerator or other appliances to your water line. The suction works well and cuts off when you have to switch the bottle. Yes it is value for your money.
