I have to say Mr. Tunze has warrantied them. But He is the slowest I think he send it by donkey. Because it usually takes 2 to 3 months to get parts back I've had to buy replacements and rotate as needed. I am ****ed and am ready to pull the hole set up and buy some Vortec.

This has been my experience with Tunze as well. I had repeated episodes of broken motor blocks and broken brackets on multiple pumps. The last straw was several months ago I was pulling out the magnet holder for a pump only to find that the seal to the magnet had obviously failed and the magnet had swelled more than 1/2" due to rusting incredibly! I'm so sick of sending things back to Tunze I've just given up and won't buy another Tunze product.
And when you guys are referring to "Mr. Tunze" I'm assuming you're dealing with Phil at Xenia (the Canadian distributor for Tunze)?
