Overheated after just a few minutes

This pump only ran for a few minutes and then overheated and shut down. The company said it was defective and would need to be replaced even though it's brand new.

Pros
  • Several competitors
Cons
  • Zero

Doesn't turn on fast enough.

Not quick enough to turn on when hooked up to a retrofit wash drain that consists of an existing floor level drain stand with built in bypass. Check the minimum pipe length required for overflow compensation. Also make sure your outlet goes down and the check valve is closed so the pump doesn't run multiple times to clean the pipe and prolong the life of your pump.

Pros
  • Excellent value for money
Cons
  • Expensive

Very good but fussy at times

Overall a very good pump. Very quiet and runs smoothly. I went with the updated check valve as suggested here. This is a good idea because the whole thing looks cheap. It didn't work out of the box. It seems that the signaller we have is a little temperamental. I had to send a stream of water straight down the drain to get the pump to work. However, 99% of the time it works well when the water comes naturally. I don't use it much so I hope it works.

  • Best

Pump at a great price

Great product at a great price. We installed it straight into the basement sink drain, a PVC ball valve, a 90 degree elbow and immediately installed it into the included check valve and washing machine hose. In fact, it works so well and it was easy to install. After all, a pump can process significantly more water than a tap, and that's where the ball valve comes in handy. We had to reduce the flow so the pump wouldn't turn on every few seconds. The built in check valve was fine. The block is…

Defective hardware and terrible customer service

I bought this laundry tub pump in my basement. Installation went well until I was ready to test the pump. The instructions that came with the pump said to fill the tub/sink with water about 1-4 inches, then plug the pump into an outlet, then open the drain and listen for the pump to start. The pump I installed immediately started pumping water to the floor under the sink. The pump manufacturer includes a full page inviting the buyer to call them with installation questions. I called and told…

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Crumpled
