- The rope pump is easy to copy, but bad copying (materials, construction) leads to early break down.
- Lack of maintenance and installation errors, can lead to early wearing out or breakage of pump parts<br>
- A “blocking system” is needed on the handle to avoid return of the handle, which if not the "spinning back" of the handle can be dangerous , especially for children.<br>
- Compared to piston pumps the rope pumps splashes more.<br>
- Not protected from pollution; the well remains open and children can (and do) throw stones and sand inside the well.<br>
