Honestly? IMO the box looks excellent but the switch doesn't go. I think you need something that has the same aesthetics.

Agree. Black switch with metal cover plate would be nice. Although I've never been a big aesthetics guy.

Why enclose the pump?

Protects it. Motor doesn't like getting wet, and alotta people have the polysulfone head which can crack (I think this guy has the stainless chugger). Plus it makes it easier to move around if need be. Plus gives you a good place to mount a switch.
 
Yea I plan on switching to a dual switch, once I get the second pump and we'll definitely change the plate. I just didn't want to spend the money knowing that I was going to change it.
