Why it matters
FOTING says this 1/2 HP pump removes water down to 0.04 in, with up to 2,450 GPH and 25 ft of head. A removable stainless steel filter passes solids up to 1/5 in.
It weighs about 8.5 lb and comes with a garden hose adapter, an NPT elbow and a multi-hose adapter.
Who it's for, and who should skip it
Good fit if
- Flooded floors
- Hot tubs and pools
- Window wells
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
- Drains very low
- Stainless filter
- Light
Cons

Limitations to weigh
- Manual pumps run only while switched on; stay with the pump so it doesn't run dry.
- Don't let it run dry; most pumps wear out quickly without water to cool them.
