There are two dirty water pumps in Bunnings latest catalog, a Leader for $115 and a 400w 9000l/h Silverstorm for $69. Has anyone had any experience with either of these or care to comment? I haven't seen them but for $69 it would seem OK if it has a warranty.

Was actually thinking after I posted that it would make a good spare.

Hmm... must be a location thing, mine only shows 20 pages.

Might be a good omen anyway :)

Any idea how much the Ebara pumps are?

Only references I could find was ebay UK (if its the same pump)
Link http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Silver-Storm-Heav ... 240%3A1318
Seems to pull a lot of watts for its capacity and am unsure of the reference to a copper inline nozzle.
Without the "copper" bit it would seem a very good price for an emergency pump, but would not like to run it as the main pump.
