Review on DEKO 400W 1/2HP 1981GPH Submersible Sump Pump W/Float Switch & 16Ft Cable by Terry Napoleon

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Pumps failed very quickly

I bought two of these because I do not expect such pumps to last much longer than one year, so if the first fails after a year I would have an immediate backup. Unfortunately, the first pump failed after only a week so I sent it back for exchange thinking it was just a fluke. I put in the second (back up) pump and it too failed within four days. I then found out the first pump I sent back could not be exchanged so I returned the second on as well for a refund on both. I am not at all disappointed in Best Buy just the in the product (one product quickly failing is a shame, a second failing even faster is a poor design/quality control issue).

Failed after running on and off on a timer in 30 minute cycles for 2 weeks. Installed t replace a Medas pump under same cycle that ran for 2 years straight until it burned out. 2 weeks, really? Float switch seemed reluctant at times then it seemed to settle down. I used to be curious about this brand. Now I know.

Unit worked well but stopped working half way through my pool.. At first I could jiggle the float switch and get it to work but the. It no longer worked. Unit returned. Probably would have felt better about keeping the item if there was a way to change the float or a longer warranty period.
