[QUOTE="skipbifferty, post: 346242, member: 53301"] Ok don't all chip in at once! After a little research and thinking about my own use, I've decided that insuring the pump wouldn't be worth it. I could pay my home insurance a little extra to insure a valuable over £2500 but I've decided that the manufacturer guarantee would cover most problems I think. I think it's very very unlikely that the pump would get stolen because I'd have to be mugged (since the pump is attached to me 99.9% of the time) and I haven't been mugged since I was a teenager (touch wood). It's much more likely that I would accidentally damage the pump but, even then, I think this is very unlikely compared to the chances that something might go wrong with the pump anyway. If I did want insurance I would probably put in under house insurance rather than insure it specifically because it's much cheaper, less paperwork and, since I'm very unlikely to claim, my insurance premium is very unlikely to be affected. Ok you can all carry on with your day jobs now.... [/QUOTE]
