Do you see any scoring on the magnet itself? Also when u remove the magnet stick your finger in there and see if there is a film on the inside you can remove. I only had to clean it once to get my pump running smoothly. its been 2 weeks without any issues.
Replacing the whole pump for the 3rd time isnt going to do much imo if all the pumps at the store are from the same shipment.
