Has anyone used something like this for water changes and such?

I'm sick of lugging 5 gallons at a time from my tank to dispose of and 5 gallons at a time up stairs for water changes. I currently use 5x 5 gallon buckets. I fill up 4 with mixed saltwater from the mixing station and lug them up stairs. Then with the 5th bucket I pump water from the sump and tank into it and dump it, lugging it to the drain 4 times, then pump the water out of the other four buckets into the tank/sump.
I'd like to hook a pump to the tank, measure out 20 gallons with something like this while dumping it into the drain, then pump directly from my mixing station in the basement with another meter so I can exchange a very close amount.
Wondering if anyone has had any luck with these cheapo things.
