I debated between a MistKing and an AquaZamp for a matter of 10 minutes. Luckily I had the chance to speak with Kevin, from AquaZamp while doing so. He mentioned a ton of facts about AquaZamp other then the fact that the parts were all made in the USA. Can't go wrong with the good ole' U S of A.
I received my unit today, after a total of 5 days, including the weekend (purchased on Friday, received the following Wednesday). You will have to forgive me, as I was so excited to get this mister hooked up and running before Waldo's last misting cycle that i didnt even realize that there was no card in my camera as I was steadily snapping away my unboxing photo's. I assure you, the packaging was great, every piece of equipment was stuff into the water container (4 gallons) and wrapped tightly with a ??cardboard type wrapping paper??. It was tightly wrapped and packed neatly inside with more cardboard type paper inside the container for stuffing.
As I opened the jug and pulled out the stuffing, I was surprised at the amount of patriotism that flew out at me. No confetti burst in the air or fireworks, but 'Made in USA' stickers on everything, an extra 'Made in USA' sticker, and a miniature American Flag. I loved it, being the ex-military, super patriotic, military supporter that I am, I couldn't have been more happy with what I opened up. That, and the amount of parts that were included; I read the included list on the website and while it seemed like a good amount of necessary equipment, opening up the thick plastic zip-lock bag and pouring out the pieces; it just seemed like twice as much that I read (I did have an extra nozzle in my order at 1/2 price thanks to Kevin and his sales skills).
After Unboxing
Installing the pump, mounted on the lid of the water jug, was as easy as could be. Every hose and connect was a push to lock connection, as you insert, a fitting inside spreads locking it into place. A small sheet of paper (on the back of the orange paper shown in the picture above) are step-by-step perfect and easy to understand instructions that makes putting everything together as easy as can be.
4-gallon water container with pump mounted and all connections made
My left front corner nozzle. I added two nozzles because the mist, being so fine (which is very good) sometimes gets sucked towards the outside of the cage when my ceiling fan is blowing. really like the 3/4" connection that the nozzle and hose connects to and how it makes a great seal on the drilled hole
My right side nozzle that ensures I get mist to the middle of the cage even with the ceiling fan blowing
The 3/4" connection I mentioned I like because of the tight seal, from the outside
Waldo hiding as I install the unit
Made in the United States of America BABY!
If I had anything to say as far as improvements on the unit, it has nothing to do with the unit itself. I would say add a "required tools" area on the website for each page of AquaZamp units as i wasn't prepared to drill my 3/4" hole into my enclosure frame for the fittings. I of course could have just went through the screen as the 3/4" fitting seals it up tight preventing any escape, but it would have been nice to know ahead of time that i need a 3/4" bit to get the fitting through my frame. of course, I'm sure if I had looked over the parts more thoroughly I would have known this. The unit itself, I find it perfect. It runs hard, you can tell by the spray, but it runs quiet. I previously owned a RS400 Monsoon and the AquaZamp puts out way more and better quality mist; yet runs soooooo silent. I wouldn't know it is even on if i don't watch the cage 24/7. The connections were easy, the build was easy. Every looks clean and I love the little patriotic tid-bits that come along with it. Money we
