Why it matters
Acquaer rates the UTP017 at up to 1,760 GPH at 5 ft and 29.5 ft of lift, strong lift for a 1/6 HP pump.

Who it's for, and who should skip it
Good fit if
- Basement drainage
- Hot tubs
- Pool covers
Look elsewhere if
- Permanent sump pits (a sump pump with a switch suits better)
- Sewage or grey water with solids
- Unattended running on manual models
Pros and cons
Pros
- 29.5 ft lift
- Two-year warranty
- Compact
Cons
- Manual only
- Short cord
- Low flow
Limitations to weigh
- Manual pumps run only while switched on; stay with the pump so it doesn't run dry.
- Rated flow is at little or no lift; through a garden hose or up a stairwell, expect much less.
