I believe they are one of the oldest and largest mfrs and wouldn't be overly concerned.
If there were numerous problems, one would think they wouldn't get the UL/FM/VDS approvals. However, I do recall in the early 80's there was a mfr (NOT SPP!!) that was a bit premature in getting the <FM> mark in their castings, before final blessings. My firm at that time installed one, and it was a mess. The veteran pump rep who'd started distributing them switched brands after this and similar experiences, and to this day I'd hesitate installing one if it were given to us. I just checked and they are still in business, although I haven't had a rep call in 10+ years, or even heard of them at any convention, trade show, or either association magazine ad. George L.
