Super Vinpro Transfer Pump with prefilter and hose

Anyone have any opinion about the "Super Vinpro Transfer Pump with prefilter and hose" found at http://www.homebrewit.com/wine-beer-filters.php ?

I had one and never used it. I sold it to Julie for transferring beer so maybe she can answer. Unless if you have large barrels or tanks, I would consider a vacuum pump. That is what I use.

I'm under the impression that "transfer pump" == "vacuum pump".

This is not true. The transfer pump is mechanical. You cannot degas with it either.

Oh, thanks for the info. Scratch that pump then .
