Wayne CDU800 - 1/2 HP Cast Iron Submersible Sump Pump w/ Vertical Float Switch
Feb 22, 2016
A powerful quiet pump at a fair price
This pump replaced an almost identical one. The only difference is the new one has a plastic impeller, the old one had a cast iron impeller. Cost cutting I figure. The old one lasted 13 years until the switch began to fail. Not bad for an item with a 3 year warranty. The pump is easy to install and is quiet and powerful. If it still had the cast iron impeller I would have given it the full five stars.
A hard to find item at a good price, shipped fast.
If you need the male pug to retract and not the female socket, this is the best option. I used it on a portable workbench so I could pull out the plug and plug it in quickly without having to wrap and unwrap an extension cord. Work perfectly, good price.
Toro Red Touch Up Paint #361-10

Toro touch up spray paint
Color matches Toro equipment perfectly but like most spray paint sold these days you must adhere to bizarre rules for putting a 2nd or 3rd coat. This one said to recoat within one hour or after 48 hours. I waited just shy of three days and applied a 2nd coat. It quickly wrinkled and attacked the 1st coat. The only effective way to use it is to apply all coats within an hour and stop there. Cannot get good coverage and a smooth run free finish that way. I wound up sanding off the Toro paint and using Rustoleum "regal red" oil based which is a very good match, not as good as the Toro paint but I could not get a nice finish with the Toro paint so I gave up.
