Who it's for, and who should skip it
Good fit if
- Pools and hot tubs
- Flooded basements
- Water transfer
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
- High flow
- Adapters included
- Two-year warranty
Cons
- Manual only
- Short cord
- Protect from freezing
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.
