We have a sump pump in our basement. I am confident that this pump will endure for an equally long or even longer period of time. This is a great emergency pump for our needs and is priced great on what you get.

This is one powerful pump. It pumps more water, and faster than my house pressure. Definitely goes farther than the specs say.

When connected to a sprinkler at one end and the outside water spigot at the other, there is so much air in the line that it does not increase water pressure.

The shoe is beautiful! See attached pictures. The platform helps a lot and they are actually pretty comfortable. I have flat feet but it is very comfortable but for couple of hours.
