“This pump is one solid pump. Made of cast iron (pump and motor housing) it should last a long time. I bought this to replace a 1/2 hp RIGID sump pump manufactured by Wayne. The RIGID died at almost exactly 5 years... I decided on the Zoeller pump after much research online. This is the one that a lot of the waterproofing companies and plumbers recommend.”
“I purchased this pump to replace a failed other brand sump pump... Great pump with great reputation... Basically I had to re-plumb and discharge outside the house which is where it probably should have been in the first place.”
“I had ordered a smaller model of Zoeller sump pump a few weeks ago and when I got it, it was clear that the packaging was not appropriate for the unit's weight and fragility (no extra cushion, no sign on the box on how to handle it, it was simply put into a larger box with some paper on the side...definitely not enough to protect this 27 lbs unit). The pump itself seems solid and well built, so I decided to order another, larger Zoeller model to use it as my main pump in my basement. I am really hoping that the packaking this time is better suited for the handling of this unit, which is larger and heavier!!!”
“Great pump, hands down... I put this guy in and it emptied the full well in less than 3 seconds... I believe it could keep the water under control even in a small-flood condition.”
“I have to give Zoeller props for great customer service... As a result it arrived with the nylon float rod severely distorted so that the float was sticking on the rod... I called Zoeller, and they sent me the part within two days. Now the pump is working as expected.”
“Live by the waterfront, had issues with box-store pumps. Zoeller pump is quiet, efficient, and sturdy. Bought on recommendation from a plumbing company. Maintenance every few weeks keeps it running strong.”
“Used for 11 years... Float arm began to fail around year 8 or 9... Replaced float with LevelGuard switch... Still running quiet and efficient... New one ready just in case.”
