    If price is an issue, you could go with an above ground pump. They tend to be a little cheaper and cost less to run than an in-ground pump. The Pentair 3/4 HP Optiflo has about the same head curve as the Superpump and is less expensive. It also comes with a cord:

    The best thing about my pump is it is self-priming! My previous pump was an AG pump and I had constant priming issues! Plus, the pump basket lid on this pump is WAY easier to open that the old one.
