Good Pedestal Pump

So I bought the recommended Pedestal Pump from that other online outlet with Sump Pump in their name. It was a piece of junk. The lower bearing was out of alignment with the tower so it intermittently bound up and would not start. After some runaround with the manufacturer I got a refund. Bought this one and although expensive it went right in and has been working well for about three weeks now. It is also very quite. Very pleased with this unit

Not as good as the old one.

I purchased this M81 pump to replace an old M81. Unfortunately, the quality of the product has gone down. The old pump was rock solid in its base, the new pump rocks in its base. The pedestal pipe has been changed from metal to plastic and the fit between the base and the pipe is poor.

We have to have a sump pump

Our basement will flood if we didn't have a sump pump. The Zoeller M82 has been just what we need.

Easy ordering

The ordering process was very easy. I got the sump pump that I wanted. The order took less than a week to get to my house.

Just what I was looking for.

Bought this to replace the one we have (33yrs. old). Waiting on plumber, he has many jobs ahead of ours. We have to wait.. seeing how our old one is still working. Delivery was very fast.

"Old Faithful" is a good name for it

My only issue was that I had to buy an extension pipe and some attachments to accommodate a 1" opening in my hose. With my old sump pump, the hose attached to the pump itself. Otherwise, it works just like it should.
