5 out of 5 stars This is the one to get   November 20, 2009

After researching the market this is the pump recommended by plumbers. It will work automatically as it, or can be retrofitted to other types of float switches.

My in-laws took a 7 week vacation and the neighbor watching their home called me to let me know that the sump pump was running continuously. He unplugged it and I went over there the next morning to temporarily replace it with my back-up pump that I had. I plugged in the old pump and was surprised how quite this old pump ran. I could tell only thing wrong with it was the switch. I scraped all the corrosion off the housing of the old pump to reveal the manufacturers tag. It was the M-53, Zoeller pump and it was made in 1996. This pump worked hard for 13 years and the only thing that failed was a switch. I will replace it with a new identical pump.


5 out of 5 stars Great Pump   January 8, 2009

Great pump. It replaced a "top of the line" Ridgid pump that started acting up. The Ridgid pump had the "industry leading" electronic switch that would not maintain water level reliabilty. I paid $100 less with the Zoeller and got a better pump.

The nice thing about the Zoeller it that it's the same basic design that has been manufactured for 20+ years. It's tried and true. Replacement parts are readily available at your local plumbing supply store.

As for the reviewer who had the switch fail. It's a mechanical part. It has a rated life. It will fail eventually. As with any mechanical system, it needs regular maintenance. Buy the $20 replacement switch and replace it every 3 years. While you're at it, check and clean the float, inspect the check valve, and make sure the impeller is clear and spinning freely. No sump pump should ever be considered a maintenance-free item.

As for not including an alarm... You can get a $10 water sensor/alarm from just about anywhere. Another common-sense thing to install when you have a basement.

This is a great pump. It isn't exciting like the big box-store sump with a crazy horsepower rating, a high flow rate at 0 feet of head, and fancy newfangled electronic switch. It's a basic pump that performs a specific task reliably. It's the sort of thing you want in your sump crock.
