Query: Should have known beter.

I did read the other reviews before I bought this thing and did not listen to them. It started leaking water out of the bottom of the pump and drained most of my water out of the pool. I bought it 06/14/2009 and today is 8/02/09 so you get the point. I don't know what else you could buy for these pools as far as pumps go. I would search high and low for another brand before I bought this one. Now I have to get on the phone with intex to see if they will honor the warranty.Good Luck everyone
