    Gonna be hard to find chugger anywhere. Their site is sold out, and rebelbrewer has on their site that they should be back in stock by november. I'm guessing they meant november 2011. I'm looking for a pump too, and i'm pretty reserved to the fact that March is gonna have to get the nod. From what I understand, chugger is made by a guy in his basement, not mass produced in a factory. Probably gonna be much easier to just pay a bit more for the march.

    I just wish amazon sold the march 809hs. I got some gift cards and would have loved to get a pump.

    Sorry but with all the bad reviews and returns with the recent shipment I think I'll stay away from Chugger. March has been tried and true.

    really? where did you see bad reviews? ive seen lately that most ppl are going with the chugger cuz of price and durability. if im wrong please let me know. dont want to make a mistake and get a crap pump. i just want to buy one time only.

    Integra93ls I pmd you multiple times, do you still have any of the rubber coated kegs?

    Also I don't think it matters if the pump head is stainless or polysulfone. Even in the stainless head version the inside is still polysulfone. The impeller is not stainless, and I think the stainless heads are not 316 grade anyway.

    I like the stainless head for durability. I tend to be clumsy and would hate to break the head bumping it.

    I might just order the march. Don't feel like being a guinea pig for the new design.

    Or a little giant pump. They are a bit more expensive than the march. But they are also more powerful.
