The glass is fine but the pump... Yikes. This is great maybe for vacuum filtering a fluid with large chunks in it (like cut-up dehydrated mushroom extractions) but anything with any particulate matter at all (e.g., powdered mushroom extractions) will clog and the pump will stall. I make Lions Mane extracts and wanted to find an inexpensive vacuum filter I could recommend to my students. This can be used, but VERY carefully.
It was very easy to assemble, even though it doesn't come with directions. It also works well and the motor only has a slight hum. Be sure to clamp the pump to the table. It will vibrate off the edge!
