This review is from: Wayne SPV500 1/3 HP 3,100 GPH Pedestal Sump Pump, Cast Iron (Tools & Home Improvement)

This Chinese-made piece of crap failed on the fourth test after installation. It was tested with clean water and on the fourth try, the motor seized and failed. The product was installed in accordance with all instructions, including the "optional" check valve. The lift was only four feet, but the pump can't even handle that load. Wayne used to make solid products, apparently not any more. Do not buy this pump!!

When I received the pump, it was not assembled. Having no idea what to do, I tried to follow the instructions. They were minimal at best. I am quite satisfied with the pump itself (having finally assembled and tested it) but would recommend better diagrams/instructions/directions. Fortunately, the pump I was replacing was a Wayne SPV 500 so I could try to construct the new one based on the mechanics of the old one. It would also be helpful if this pump were advertised as needing additional parts when ordered. I received the pump and then needed to order hoses and valves separately.

I returned this item an hour after receiving it. I installed it, plugged it in, turned it on and.......NOTHING. It's pure excrement! But then I should have expected that. This is the second time I've received garbage from Amazon. I'm done with them!
