“The pump matched the spec of the one I replaced in my Vibiemme machine, and it works well - nothing more to say really. I'm giving a 5 star review for Jetblack staff though, because on the couple of occasions when I've bought a replacement part to fix DIY, I've emailed Jetblack to confirm I've got the right part for my machine, and they're always quick to respond and helpful! Great service!”
“I just replaced my 10 year old pump on my Lelit Pl042em (2015) as it was noisy and stopping and starting, new pump has fixed the issue and is very quiet, part fitted perfectly with no issues”
“Our 22yo Gaggia Classic was struggling to make an espresso and so after numerous cleaning cycles etc I decided to try replacing the pump. The pump provided by Jetblack Espresso was perfect and I was able to easily install it. The machine is now rejuvenated, making a lovely espresso very quickly. I could have bought a replacement machine, but we like the current one so much that breathing new life into it was ideal.”
“My 5 yr old Lelit PL042EMIAUS machine stopped working three days ago. I called the French’s Forest store and asked the receptionist if I could speak to a technician to hopefully diagnose the problem. She said that she might be able to help and after I briefly described the problem she immediately suggested that it sounded like the vibration pump and that a new one would be $64. Suggested that I could take it to the store or I might like to replace it myself. I then found a YouTube video showing how to replace the pump on a similar Lelit machine and thought it would be worth a go. Ordered the pump on line and it arrived today. It took about 20-30 mins to install and the machine is working perfectly again. Thank you Jetblack Espresso.”
“Identical to the replaced pump except for the brass extension (previously nylon) which is a plus. I did experience an initial problem where the unit failed to pump water. It turned out that the anti suction valve, accessible from the brass end of the pump, was stuck on its seat. A quick disassembly by removing the 2 phillips head screws allowed access to the stuck valve which released with little force. Remember, there is a small synthetic ball inside, a critical component!”
“Arrived very quickly, installed it, no difference.
My problem wasn;t the pump, it was 4 years of scale build up in almost every component of the machine, even though I backflush weekly and run the cleaning cycle every month.
I ended up ordering a whole bunch of parts and doing a lot of cleaning in order to get it working properly again.
Can;t fault the service and delivery on the parts.
I'm now using demineralised water in the machine and hopefully, I won;t have anymore issues.”
