Craftsman Professional 1/2 hp Stainless Steel/Cast-Iron Pedestal Sump Pump —
I bought this pump to replace an older mostly plastic sump pump that had seen better days. Installation was pretty easy even though my only experience in sump pumps was removing the old one. I was really impressed by the weight and apparent durability of this pump. Once installed and tested I found that since the pump was so powerful and top heavy that when it would kick on it would twist and rest against my well cover. This wasn't terrible but the cover is plastic so it would cause a vibration which could be heard throughout the house. To counteract this I did drive in some screws in the floor around the well and attach some nylon cord around the post to act as guy wires - this eliminate any movement. Overall I am very happy with my purchase. As mentioned the motor is powerful and empties my well in just a few seconds. Even though it is a little bit more expensive than other pumps the fact it has a lifetime warranty and I'll never have to purchase another one more than makes up for it. If you are thinking of purchasing a cheap pump to save money - think about how much it would cost you if it fails and you've got major water damage to your home or possessions. The few extra dollars for this pump is worth the peace of mind.
