In response to Andre L's comment, if the pump was in good working order I would never have brought it back. And for the sake of argument, even if it was working perfectly, it does not excuse the owner's "unprovoked" loud, mean spirited, angry words to me. He actually told me to leave his store and take my pump with me. He would not even listen to me when I tried to explain what was wrong with the pump. I went to ACE hardware afterward and the man at ACE showed me what was wrong with the pump and why I was not getting enough pressure, and sold me the inexpensive part to fix it. I bought the fountain from Green Goodess and the pump. Just BEWARE if you have any problems with your purchase afterwards. My one star sticks.
