I like your setup. I ordered a 1/3 HP pump on amazon with a 1 year warranty for $54.99. I got a 36" melnor watering wand from home depot for $12 and a 25' hose to run the wand that I had in the basement. I also ordered a remote outlet switch for $15 so I can turn on / off the power to the pump when I start / stop watering. I figure that'll maximize the life of the pump. Building pressure with no relief was my concern. I seriously hate hauling buckets of water. I want to do everything I can to make sure it runs for a long time
I was about to spend $90 on the wayne waterbug, but I got a pump with more power and better reviews with the same warranty for $55 through mighty pump. Why spend another $40 for less performance and the same warranty? I couldn't justify the added expense, and went with the mighty pump. My pump arrives tomorrow, and I'll be firing that bad boy up as soon as I get home from work. I may even get a backup to keep on standby.
