Failed to Perform, Avoid Purchasing!

Based on our own experience, we cannot recommend this sump pump. While it's advertised as submersible, it struggles to handle water pressure and failed to keep our basement dry during a storm. The only pro we could find was that it's reasonably priced. However, the con is that it doesn't deliver as promised and will leave you with a flooded basement. Save yourself the headache and invest in a more reliable product.

Pros
  • Reliable and efficient at keeping basement and crawl spaces dry.
Cons
  • Bulky and heavy, making installation difficult for some users.

Good for my use as an outdoor water feature pump

This is the third unit I have purchased in the last 10 years. I use it for the continuously flowing water feature. It works well for what I use it for. Part of my problem is that he doesn't like my very hard water.

Pros
  • Drainage Pumps
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Quiet and Efficient

I had the same model for about 12 years before it broke but I liked it and would buy it again. Maybe it just failed because I didn't lift it up on a brick or something when I installed it and it was sitting in a lot of clay mud when I tried to replace it. The impeller or internal components may be clogged or seized. Again, I didn't get a new one, but carefully vacuumed and cleaned the sump. I hope it lasts another decade or more.

Pros
  • Water Pumps Parts & Accessories
Cons
  • Available in White Only
